The Blossom of Innovation in Yunxiu Flower Garden

        The moment we arrived at flower garden of Yunxiu Flower Company Ltd., our sight were occupied by gorges champagne roses, potted roses in greenhouses, and well-growing seedling in the base immediately.

  Mr.Duan, the manager, was pretty busy with the construction of another 200 mu of fresh-cut flowers base, but he managed to meet us in the greenhouse, with dirt covering his shoes.

  “These champagne roses are for the coming peak consumption in March.”Mr. Duan introduced, “Yunxiu roses are always popular in the market. Dozens of orders has been made right after Spring Festival.” We noticed that workers are busy with cutting and packing flowers during our conversation.

  After we left fresh-cutting flower greenhouse, potted flower greenhouse came next. Gentle pink, joyful red, and fairy purple etc. presented us with a colorful wonderland here.

  According to Miss Li Mei, office director of the company, most flowers we saw were ordered, two-thirds of which were sold to Vietnam. “The delivery of 4500 pots we sent to Vietnam yesterday will be arriving at Henei this afternoon. Our flowers have been so popular in Vietnam since last year that we were often short of supply.”

  The flowers are blossoming, so is the business. The key to Yunxiu’s success lies in innovation. Yunxiu, as a leading company in flower industry, has always been focusing on research and development of new breed and new technology since 2006, and never stopped its effort in innovation. Golden Glory and Golden Flame are two new breeds of roses possessed by Yunxiu with independent intellectual property rights. Not to mention, another 2 invention patents, 2 utility model patents and 2 Science and technology innovation and industrialization projects. Yunxiu has made a total sale of 62 million in 2015. Yet an increase of more than 20% is to be expected this year.

  “As for our plan in this coming new year”, Duan put it, “we would work even harder on innovation. Flower market in China is huge and calls for new breeds and better quality. Good flowers are always short of supply. Innovation is the key to a firm foothold in the market, as a local enterprise, especially as a leading company in our business. Among the 5 new varieties introduced last year,  2 has been tested successfully and ready to be put into large scale planting. Another 3 or 5 new breeds will be introduced and tested this year. What’s more, 50 out of the 200 mu newly-built base are meant for study of soilless flower planting.
