ON TOUR: Tanacetum from greenhouse to vase
The perfect choice for field bouquets, a cheerful filler flower and a lush touch for trendy arrangements… Let’s talk Tanacetum! Versatile, flirty and full of joy. Tanacetum – a.k.a Matricaria or Feverfew – offers many options. Today we team up with Dutch floral designer Pim van den Akker, to take a closer look at this marvellous cut flower. Together we take a trip from greenhouse to vase. Take a peek in the greenhouse of a leading grower of Tanacetum, discover Evanthia’s latest additions and check out Pim’s creative outburst with Tanacetum as a focal flower. Join us On Tour!
Laser-sharp focus, uniformity and diversity
Evanthia offers a broad range of Tanacetum, covering various colours and flower types (single, semi-double and full double flowers). Our active breeding programme for this product group focusses strongly on uniformity. This has resulted in several very successful varieties, like the renowned Baya®, and exciting newcomers with outstanding characteristics.
The past seasons Evanthia has added several new Tanacetum varieties to its range. All feature star qualities in order to make the cut: laser-sharp uniformity, a short cultivation time, great branching, rich flowering and consistent quality throughout the year.
Check out our newest Tanacetum varieties:
- Tanacetum Camilla: soft yellow, single flowers, great branching and rich flowering
- Tanacetum Cameron: high uniformity, well-filled ring of flower petals, many single flowers per branch
- Tanacetum Rio: radiant white, semi-circular flowers and relatively tall stems
- Tanacetum Orinoco: creamy white, semi-double Tanacetum with firm and slender stems and masses of flowers
- Tanacetum Lima: robust, finely-built stems with many semi-circular white flowers
Visit to the grower
Pim van den Akker takes us along to visit the Dutch Tanacetum grower Van Egmond Matricatria. Co-owner Job van Egmond talks about his vision for Tanacetum, his points of interest as a grower, the cultivation process from seedling to flower and the challenges while growing Tanacetum.
Time to get creative
Pim van den Akker is floral designer and creative director of Flower Factor. He shows us how to model an awesome flower arrangement with different Tanacetum varieties. Tanacetum’s bright colours and bouncy blooms, in a base composed of natural materials, create the ultimate springtime vibe.
