With the greatest care we deliver our Red Naomi roses to our clients, in order to guarantee  an optimal vaselife to the consumer. We have finetuned everything in our production process in such a way that our roses have the potential to live on avaradge 3 days longer than the roses from the competition.

Porta Nova works close together with Universities, researchers from Floralife & Chrysal and trade partners to constantly keep improving quality. But of course in the end it is up to the traders and florist to also create the optimum cercomstances during transport and in the shops, to let our roses reach their full potential at the consumer.

To us it has become very clear that if we work together as a chain by setting up close cooperations and keep making small improvements together we will improve results for everyone. Do contact us if you are interested in learning more or setup an improvement program!
