Interview with Mark Koningen, on the rose Tibet, owner of Franks Flowers. An exclusive flower shop in Amsterdam, The Netherlands
Mark Koningen: “We are exclusive florists, we do parties, events, flowers for companies and we also have a shop in the Beethovenstraat. (Luxurious shopping area in Amsterdam.)”
In Europe and Russia many retailers and designers are very enthusiastic about Tibet!® Can you explain what it is they like so much about it?
The rose Tibet!® has a firm stem with almost no thorns. The flower is pure white, big and opens beautifully.
Can you compare it to other white varieties in the market? And if so what would be the positive or negative aspects Tibet!® has to offer in comparison?
You can compare Tibet!® to some extent with Hollywood. The big advantage of Tibet!® is that she does not open as fast as Hollywood.
In your experience how is the vase life of Tibet!®? Does Tibet!® recover quickly after transportation?
The vase life is very good, the rose lasts for 8 days beautiful and it has no problem with direct sales after handling.
How important is the amount of thorns and easiness to work with the stems. In the case of Tibet!® how would you judge this?
Tibet!® is almost thorn less. Perfect!!!
In which ways could you work with Tibet!®?
Tibet!® is very suitable for romantic bouquets and flower arrangements.
Flowers can add that special touch to any celebration. Can you offer some insight on how Tibet!® can specifically enhance exceptional festivities?
Tibet!® is perfect for extraordinary and lush arrangements. Big is beautiful!!!. With her big flower she is really impressive. I also would love to use Tibet!® in a romantic or garden-like setting.
What is your favourite event? And why?
Weddings! because weddings are always big parties.
How would you use Tibet! in that event?
I would use Tibet!® in very big flower arrangements, use the petals as confetti and overwhelm the bride and groom with a waterfall of Tibet!® petals.
Do you have any suggestions for us? Do you want to add something?
Yes, I have some requests:
I would like to see more fragrant roses, and extra-extra-large spray roses. I also would like to use branches with roses in my creations, but as far as I know, these roses do not exist yet, but am still hoping.
