The collection 2020/2021
touch my supersized crispy flowers, and you’re sold!
www.granvia.eu
About The strawflowers Granvia® collection put a smile on your face right away when you touch her petals for the first time. Because yes, you will want to touch her. Her papery and dry petals make it almost hard to believe that the Granvia® flowers are organic and alive.
Beside her resistance to all kinds of weather, she is also self-cleaning. This means that you don’t need to give her a lot of attention to keep up the quality. But if you notice a lesser flower in her plant, you can always take it out and Granvia® will replace it with a new flower even sooner.
Granvia® is a collection of Xerochrysum (Bracteantha) with unusually big, long lasting flowers. There are multiple bracteatum on the market, but the Granvia® variety is stronger, has better branching, blooms earlier and has huge flowers . When talking Xerochrysum, we believe bigger is always better. The flowers of Granvia® are certainly bigger than any other Xerochrysum out there, We are promising you, Granvia® will be the next big thing in bedding plants.
Blooms with a beat. The Granvia® colours are not the only attributes that are lively, Granvia® has a day and night rhythm. Granvia® starts her day with closed buds, but as soon as she feels the sun on her petals, her big flowers will open up. All in a matter of minutes. As the night falls, she will fall asleep and her flowers close up again. Granvia® also closes her flowers if they get wet, so you can tease her with your watering can.
The Xerochrysum (Bractheantha) is an Australian plant. Originally they grow in a dry and hot landscape. But even though she naturally prefers dry and sunny places, she doesn’t have a problem thriving in colder climates. Her super strong garden performance is truly remarkable.
Identity Granvia’s flowers stimulate the senses. Feast your eyes on her bright coloured flowers, which are unusually big. Touch her dry and papery petals and listen to the soft crackling between your fingers.
it’s mad hot! ouch...
