Obra Verde currently offers three species for cut flower, foliage and plant sales, including Agonis parviceps, Agonis juniperina and Agonis flexuosa.

Agonis Parviseps (Fine Ti Tree Flower)

     Unique characteristics of the Fine Ti Tree include long, erect stems with profuse blooms along the entire length. This species takes very well to immersion dying and blooms from late fall to early spring. The foliage is available all year. Fine Ti Tree is featured in the above photo.

Agonis A. Juniperina (Coarse Ti Tree Flower)

     Coarse Ti Tree blooms from summer to late fall. This handsome species demonstrates graceful, twisting white stems which explode with clusters of white blooms. The blooms are nestled in dark green, small needle-like leaves. Ti Tree Flower takes well to immersion dyes.

Agonis A. Juniperina (Coarse Ti Tree or Warren River Cedar)

This hardy, versatile foliage is available all year. Dark green, small, needle-like leaves are supported by upright, papery, white stems. The feathery, cedar like appearance of this agonis makes it a favorite for Christmas arrangements.

Agonis Flexuosa (Red Southern Cross)

A relative newcomer to the Obra Verde list, Red Southern Cross is quickly becoming an industry favorite. Vibrant leaves swirl in hues ranging from dark to light green ending in tips highlighted with crimson red. Keith White, in Floral Management Magazine (December 2000) calls it " a stunning substitute for ferns or standard greens in arrangements, or it can stand alone." Available from December through January, this gorgeous green is destined to become an industry standard.
