Westland Floral carefully balances innovative hydroponic greenhouse cultivation with traditional farming practices. Hydroponics, a type of horticulture involving growing plants in nutrient rich water without soil, go hand in hand with sustainable farming: water conservation; precise management of nutrient levels without excessive application of plant nutrients; ideal greenhouse growing conditions to reduce plant nutrient and crop protection products; and high density planting to maximize crop yield with minimal use of land.

DNA testing cymbidium labratory

Our investment into an on-site laboratory allows routine testing of water supplies, DNA testing for plant pathogens, and precise germination and cloning of our best varieties. Our genetic portfolio of orchids is decades deep and preserves old and new varieties for generations to come. Longevity is our vision and the reward we share with the world.
