THREE new varieties of waxflower developed by the Western Australian Agricultural Authority have been released.
The initial release is restricted to cut flowers growers in WA, with WAFEX to co-ordinate the commercial supply of propagation material and plants and be the exclusive marketing agent for distribution in both the export and domestic cut flower markets.
WAFEX managing director Craig Musson said it was exciting to have access to the new varieties which have yet to be given formal names.
Known as WX74 and WX87, the two white pearl flower varieties had been selected for their mid-to-late flowering season which would extend supplies of white pearl waxflower beyond the latest variety, ivory pearl.
