Pieris japonica: Pink and White Spring Cut Flowers
Late winter / early spring
Pieris japonica supplies pink and white flowering stems for the late-winter and early-spring wholesale season. The farm’s original article describes a relatively short harvest window.
The post-Valentine’s window
The source says Pieris is typically ready just after Valentine’s Day and available for about six to eight weeks. That provides a useful starting point for planning, while actual weather and bud development determine a given year’s crop.
Frost can affect buds
Patrick specifically notes that hard frosts can damage Pieris buds. The embedded newsletter also describes a heavy snowstorm and limited quantities of pink Pieris. Confirm the available color and condition instead of relying on a past season’s photographs.
A mixed late-winter palette
White and pink cherry, spirea, quince, fantail willow and tulip magnolia accompanied the Pieris offering. The branch-care guide offers a place to begin a discussion about receiving and staging the assortment for a particular display date.
