SKYLER™ DUO CRYSTAL Earns Red Ribbon at the 2026 SAF Outstanding Varieties Competition

Danziger’s versatile Veronica receives another international recognition, following its second-place achievement at Proflora 2025

Danziger is pleased to announce that SKYLER™ DUO CRYSTAL has received a Red Ribbon at the 2026 Society of American Florists’ Outstanding Varieties Competition.

The award adds further recognition for a variety that combines distinctive visual appeal with valuable commercial flexibility.

The SAF competition brings together judges representing growers, wholesalers and retailers. Recognition from this diverse panel reinforces SKYLER™ DUO CRYSTAL’s value and relevance across different stages of the floral supply chain.

“SKYLER™ DUO CRYSTAL offers growers much more than visual appeal,” said Ori Danziger, Deputy CEO of Danziger. “Its real strength lies in its ability to perform as both a spray and a standard variety, giving growers greater production flexibility and opening opportunities across different customer segments and market channels.”

One Variety. Two Market Opportunities.

One of SKYLER™ DUO CRYSTAL’s most valuable advantages is its ability to be grown and marketed in two different forms: as a spray or as a standard, single-spike flower.

In spray production, multiple white spikes create generous volume and a full appearance with relatively few stems. This makes it particularly attractive for retail bouquets, where visual impact, efficiency and value are essential.

As a standard flower, its elegant upright spike adds height, movement and a strong linear element. It is well suited to event work, premium bouquets and floral arrangements that call for greater structure and design interest.

This flexibility allows growers to adapt their production and market positioning according to different customers, channels and market needs — creating more opportunities from a single variety.

SKYLER™ DUO CRYSTAL also offers uniform growth, stems of 60–70 cm, white inflorescences measuring 8–10 cm and a vase life of approximately 10 days.

One variety. Two forms. More market possibilities.
