Tulip Sapporo

Performance and Reliability of the Lily-flowered Class

Growing the 'Sapporo' cultivar provides growers with a predictable and high-quality outcome. This tulip is characterized by strong resistance to a wide range of pathogens, including Fusarium and Verticillium wilt, Cladosporium, and tomato mosaic virus. Such resilience significantly reduces the need for frequent fungicide applications, simplifying field management and lowering production costs.

Operational Parameters

• Blooming Schedule: mid-season flowering allows for optimal harvest planning and market entry.
• Plant Structure: the medium height of the stem ensures excellent structural integrity, preventing lodging under windy conditions.
• Visual Appeal: the pristine white color of the petals gives the bloom a premium appearance, highly favored by floral designers.

The characteristic shape of the lily-flowered petals requires careful handling during logistics, but the exceptional aesthetic value compensates for these operational requirements. High resistance to viral and fungal diseases makes 'Sapporo' a top choice for industrial-scale cultivation. Reduced dependence on intensive chemical treatments improves the profit margin per hectare, while the predictable growth cycle allows for precise scheduling of the harvest window.
