Global warming has led to increased occurrences of abnormal weather patterns worldwide, particularly hot and dry summers, posing a threat to humanity. Delosperma, a plant known for its beautiful flowers, is adaptable to low and high temperatures, Furthermore, being a succulent plant, it is highly tolerant to drought. As a result, Delosperma is considered an energy-efficient plant. With untapped potential, Koichiro has focused on breeding and offering diverse varieties under brands like Jewel of Desert, Wheels of Winter, and Ocean Sunset, and also to third parties through OEM partnerships, providing options for energy-conscious gardening.
FlorSAIKA, specialized in Delosperma breeding!
To create varieties that can thrive in a wide range of environments, we evaluate the performance of Delosperma breeding under extreme conditions such as temperatures exceeding 40 degrees Celsius, below -20 degrees Celsius, and high heat and humidity. In addition to the Netherlands, we have established selective farms in Italy and Japan since 2021 to expand our breeding operations.
Koichiro, through his specialized breeding company Florsaika Breeding, is dedicated to the improvement of Delosperma varieties. He hopes that the Delosperma bred here will be widely utilized worldwide. In particular, efforts are being made to adapt Delosperma to the hot and humid environments of Asia, with expectations for its widespread adoption in the region.
