Lily Conference China

Jan 2012

On 29 December 2011 a very well-attended conference was organized in the middle of the lily production area in China (Yunnan, Dounan). This meeting was organized by Kunming Windmill horticulture Co., Ltd. (Gert v / d Velden) and the Yunnan Flower Industry Office.

More than 700 growers where offered a fascinating full-day program that ended with a dinner for all attendees. Gert van der Velden gave his views on developments in the lily industry in general and that of the lily industry in China in particular. On behalf of the Dutch lily breeding companies  Mr. Paul Augustinus explained about the breeding process and paid attention to the new varieties that are expected in the Chinese market. There were also several other speakers, and there was also time for a variety of song and dance performances. Afterwards all participants received the recently released poster with new OT varieties of Mak Breeding, that was specially translated into Chinese for this occasion and was expanded with a calendar.

At present still an immense advertisement  for the new Mak Breeding Ot’s is shown on the building of China largest flower auction in Dounan. until now the assortment of lilies used in the Chinese market is still very limited, but through such advertisements, the Chinese forcers are tempted to try out new introductions.
