OF PAUL ECKE RANCH
Today,
approximately 70% of all the flowering poinsettias in the USA and more
than 50% worldwide get their start at the Paul Ecke Ranch in Encinitas,
California. The current production facilities span over 23 acres of
greenhouses. The Ranch ships several million vegetative cuttings to
growers in over 50 countries, and finishes thousands of potted flowering
plants for Christmas, sold to wholesale and retail florist outlets in
California, Arizona and Nevada.
Poinsettia breeding
continues to be a major activity of the Ranch, where new cultivars are
produced and evaluated each year. Additionally, the Paul Ecke Ranch
has formed partnerships with other international floriculture leaders,
and is developing and marketing a line of spring plants under The Flower
Fields® brand. This extensive product offering includes
Kientzler New Guinea impatiens, Sunscape® Daisies, Outback
Plants®, Verbena, Snapdragons, Petunias, Argyranthemum,
Double Impatiens and Portulaca. (You can view the complete catalog here).
