Alexandra Farms recently participated in Proflora, one of the largest fresh cut flower shows in the world. It is held biannually in Bogota, Colombia, and features exhibits by all the best Colombian flower farms, many of which have been in business for more than 25 years -- and several for more than 50 years! It's truly a treat to walk among professional stands filled with the world's finest flowers!
Alexandra Farms displays all of our commercial cut garden roses in our booth during the show. Visitors include current and potential customers from all over the world. This year we were visited by customers from the USA, Canada, Holland, England, France, Azerbaijan, Georgia, Russia and the Ukraine, among others.
The show includes a variety competition for each type of cut flower, and the top three entries in each category receive an award. This year our Japanese variety Princess Suki (Loved One) won second place in the Garden Rose category.
As part of the Proflora celebrations, we host a brunch at our farm for customers and influential designers from across the world. The gorgeous table arrangements were created by our friends Maggie and Mick Bailey from Bramble & Bee near Houston, Texas.
Thanks to all who attended our booth and brunch. We look forward to seeing many new faces in 2021!
