Protea Libencherry (Protea repens × Protea longifolia) is a refined South African hybrid grown under exacting standards in the Western Cape. Its medium flower heads display glossy, deep-cherry red outer bracts that gently lighten toward a fresh green base, set against narrow, silvery-green foliage. Libencherry brings vibrant early spring colour, consistent form and sculptural elegance to high-volume bouquets and large-scale retail displays.

Quality & Handling

• Cut at peak maturity when inner bracts begin to unfurl, then immediately cooled to 4 °C to preserve peak freshness.
• Maintained under a continuous cold-chain, with rigorous grading for head size, stem length and straightness, and leaf quality—ensuring consistent supply across bulk consignments.
• Expected vase-life of 14–21 days when conditioned by: re-cutting stems underwater at a sharp angle on arrival, hydrate promptly in clean water, and refresh every 2–3 days. Refresh water with floral preservative every 2–3 days for optimal performance.
• Ethylene Sensitivity: Low, making it ideal for long-distance export and extended display.
