Sustainability

More roses. Same footprint.

Sustainability doesn’t have to cost you much. A PRO rootstock is a drop-in that simply works — same varieties, same houses, same kit, and the crop produces more.

More from every litre and every gram

More production draws a little more water and feed — but a stronger, more efficient root system makes better use of it. More of what you apply ends up in the plant, and less runs to waste.

CO₂, without the CO₂ plant

In poly-tunnels or open field, PRO delivers the lift of CO₂ fertiliser — more growth, more kilos — straight from the root. Nothing to build, run or maintain.

Greener still, under glass

In a modern glasshouse you manage the climate with real precision — heating, cooling, lighting and CO₂ all finely tuned. PRO turns that controlled environment into more stems, so more of the energy you already spend ends up in saleable crop.

Proven in Dutch glass

In Dutch glasshouse trials, leading varieties on ProTatu and ProTano out-yielded own-root cuttings by a median of +18% — up to +28%. More sellable stems from the same crop.

Everywhere roses grow

Dutch glass is one proof. The effect isn’t regional — PRO rootstocks lift the crop across Africa, South America, China and Europe alike. Different climates, one arithmetic: more from the same footprint.

What your buyers are asking

Auctions, retailers and supermarkets increasingly ask about the environmental footprint of the flowers they buy. A bigger harvest from the same land and houses lowers the footprint behind every stem you cut — more to sell, and a better story to tell.
