Ask your retailer for the real no #1 trailing Petunia

OFFICIAL LABELS

Ask only for the real Surfinia®!

Many have tried and are still trying to breed a strong, beautifully trailing Petunia, but nobody has managed to copy the appearance and perfect qualities of Surfinia®. Always buy the one and only Surfinia®, which is the #1 Petunia on the market. The official Surfinia® brand labels are specially designed labels to tell the total story of the Surfinia® brand and its special characteristics.

These days consumers want more! They want a special design, more background information, more feeling (experience) with the product and most important, help to create a sea of flowers in their garden and a long-lasting life for its money. All the above things add extra value to the plant (brand), and will be achieved by using official brand labels. By using the branded labels, plants are visible and recognizable on store floors. They give more information and tell a clearer story about the good and different characteristics of the species in comparison to its competitor. By doing this, consumers will come back to the store and hopefully re-buy the same brand, our brand! As a result, more plants are sold and everybody in the (supply) chain will benefit.

Eco friendly labels

To emphasize the premium standard of Surfinia®, special labels where designed by FloraMedia. The labels have a natural look & feel and are 100% biodegradable, what makes them sustainable and environmental friendly. An important precedent, that perfectly suits the high quality that Surfinia® stands for.
