Well, having so many varieties, it is difficult to choose the right ones. For his own production Hartwig Bull offers a look into “The Bull Sunbeckia Mix 2023”.
The question is: “Why using so many varieties?”
First at all a breeder likes all his babies and there is a need for all of them. ‘Sophia’ and ‘Sophia Yellow’ for instance are varieties with a strong growth. They do realy good in the first plantings. Hartwig is starting in week 18 direct on the field. We are facing in this period temperature around 35°F and sometime it goes in the morning even below 32°F. The ‘Sophia’ sisters are doing fine with those conditions and they flower early.
The majority of all colors needed in Germany is yellow. In the early production until mid of August we need a good portion of the bicolored varieties.
Bicolored Varieties
The double and semi-double flowering varieties captivate due to the “different” look. They are making the program attractive due to the flowershape.
Double and Semi-Double
The basis of the production is a setting out of ‘Ophelia’, ‘Paulina’ and ‘Maya’, ‘Victoria’ and ‘Carolina’.
Main Group in Yellow
However, a ‘Juliana’ is scheduled for the whole season. This variety is striking due to the enormous flowersize.
