Syngenta Flowers introduces Delta Pro

Syngenta Flowers has announced the new Delta Pro series. According to Syngenta, Delta Pro offers growers a single solution with the most programmable large-flowered pansy series for both spring and autumn sales. This new lineup has set a new standard for pansy genetics simplifying planning and maximizing profitability with the most uniform and fastest finishing times for a single series.

The Delta Pro plant structure has been designed with a vigorous root system, particularly important during summer production, which allows for reliable autumn sales. The plants also boast the most robust basal branching of any series, quickly covering containers before putting on color. The powerful plant body, paired with durable peduncles, easily supports the large, 3-inch-wide blooms through transportation to the retail bench.

“Precision in production has been the objective for years in the making. Our breeding teams have had a laser focus on bringing a completely refreshed lineup of Delta genetics with the tightest flowering window of any large-flowered pansy series. This allows growers to predictably deliver a complete lineup to retail at one time,” says Marianne Sela, head of global seed development. “Having a single series complete with all core colors and mixes for spring and autumn sales, all with identical production culture, greatly simplifies pansy programs for growers across Europe, Africa, and Middle East.
