There are new petunias in the SKYfamily, while Selecta's Trixi mixes new combinations, have particular attention to the highly topical issues of drought tolerance, heat resistance and insect-friendliness. Like all Trixi combinations, these new introductions have been successfully tested. They meet the highest requirements for storability and transportability and stand out thanks to their high durability and excellent flowering properties.

Selecta Pelargoniums: Tumbao, Smokey Eye and Ylenia Tumbao: For Selecta one, the most important requirements for the Tumbao varieties are: a good summer performance, i.e. a good heat tolerance, as well as many flowers throughout the summer. In addition, they all have an upright and strong growth, a dark foliage colour with zone and dark flower stems. Tumbao On Fire offers beautiful, bright red and a super contrast with the dark foliage colour and the strong zone together with the dark flower stems. Overall, this flower colour has great potential to become a sales hit. Tumbao Extra Pink is a colour complement to the red with its beautiful dark pink.

Smokey Eye varieties have a graceful eye pattern in the flower and are therefore always an eye- catcher. The three varieties in the series stand out with their large flowers and long-lasting bloom.

Early flowering, medium growth and good branching are further plus points of these interspecific Pelargoniums.  The single-flowering novelty Ylenia is a special variety with spectacularly large flowers in intense red with a pink edge. In addition to its outstanding summer and outdoor performance, the particularly lively branching and the very round structure are convincing. For sure, Selecta Pelargoniums fit into every assortment and can serve proven and new trends due to their versatility.

Next to these highlights Selecta will also present novelties in the Calibrachoa line MiniFamous Neo Double: Loopy Pink and Loppy Lavender. Two beautiful double flowering Calibrachoa varieties in pink and lavender with a special yellow circle. As all MiniFamous Neo varieties they vigorous growing with good branching and therefore ideal for baskets and big containers.
