    The FleuroStar Award 2021/22 goes to Begonia Aroma Peach from Dümmen Orange. “Aroma Peach displays a true abundance of double, bi-coloured flowers, which are so elegant and charming. The excellent plant habit and subtle fragrance turn this Begonia into an outstanding eye-catcher for any terrace or garden”, the jury stated.

FleuroStar’s success and credibility is due to the diversity and expertise of our jury.”

    About FleuroStar

    The FleuroStar Contest is held annually during the FlowerTrials week in June in the Netherlands and Germany. Fleuroselect members can enter their top breeding breakthrough of the season to become the new ‘Winner with the Wow Factor’. Due to the cancellation of the FlowerTrials, the Contest was held in a hybrid format this year. In addition to the digital candidate promotion via the trade press and socials, physical promotional displays have been set up at Syngenta Flowers and Florensis in week 24.

    Begonia Aroma Peach from Dümmen Orange was competing against Pelargonium Estelle Appleblossom (Florensis), Petunia Fun House Potpourri (Syngenta Flowers) and Verbena Mr. LavaLava (Selecta one).
