Stock (Matthiola) from Ecuadorian, Colombian and Kenyan growers 15-07-2025 / News

Matthiola or Stock as it is called in some English-speaking countries and Latin America, has gained popularity in floristry due to its delicate fragrance, textured inflorescences and a wide range of colors. This flower has become an ideal choice for romantic, classic and modern design compositions, where expressive structure and natural lightness are valued.

Mattiola is now increasingly used in new generation floristry, reflecting the trends of minimalism, urbanism and contemporary design. It fits seamlessly into both laconic mono-bouquets and dynamic interior compositions, adding depth and air to the composition.

Mattiola is often included in wedding bouquets and seasonal arrangements. The flower is characterized by good persistence and versatility in combination with other flowers.

Mattiola remains in the affordable price range, making it attractive for both mass consumption and premium floristry

Unlike countries with a clear seasonality, in Ecuador and Colombia matthiola is grown all year round. This is possible due to favorable natural conditions: stable climate, high mountainous regions and optimal daylight hours. By choosing a trusted grower in these countries, you can be sure of a constant supply regardless of the season.

In Ecuador and Colombia, the species known as Matthiola gray (Matthiola incana) is predominantly grown, but local growers more commonly refer to the flower as Stock. It is under this name that Matthiola is presented on our website - both in the flower catalogue and on the platform of daily offers from the farms.

It is important to consider that matthiola is an annual plant. After several months of flowering, the farms remove old bushes to make room for new plantings. At the same time, based on the trends of the flower market and demand, growers choose the colors of matthiola for the next season. Therefore, the list of available colors may change periodically. Our managers will always suggest current and available positions for purchase.

Matthiola can be ordered both in mono-boxes of one color and in mixed boxes.

Ecuador and Colombia offer matthiola in a length of 70 cm. However, Ecuadorian matthiola stands out in quality against the background of other supplier countries, including Colombia and Kenya, namely:

  • A taller flower part. The inflorescences of Ecuadorian Mattiola are much more lush, taller and denser than those of Colombian Mattiola, which visually makes the stem more impressive and effective in the bouquet
  • Intense fragrance. The fragrance lasts longer and is felt more strongly - an important advantage for wedding and interior floristry
  • Bright and expressive colors. The high altitude location of the farms (up to 3000 m above sea level) provides ideal conditions for rich petal color
  • Excellent persistence. With proper care, Ecuadorian matthiola keeps freshness in a vase for up to 10 days.

The color palette of Ecuadorian Matthiola is very diverse:

Stock is packed 10 stems per bunch in the following boxes:

  • EB (Eighth Box) – 60 stems
  • QB (Quattro Box) – 120 stems
  • HB (Half Box) – 200 stems.

Packing in a QB (Quattro Box) is the most popular among our customers and is definitely recommended by us due to its optimal volume and better transport tolerance, which consequently minimizes the risk of mechanical damage of flowers.

Stock Supreme deserves special attention - it is an improved Ecuadorian Matthiola, which belongs to the premium segment and is distinguished by:

  • An even lusher and taller flower part
  • Clearer flower shape
  • Stricter quality control at the farm
  • A higher price policy

Stock Supreme is available in 70 cm length, packaging:

  • 10 stems / bunch
  • 100 stems / QB (Quattro Box).

Stock Supreme colors are available:

In terms of final cost, Ecuadorian Matthiola is comparable to Colombian Mattiola, but if you are looking for premium quality Matthiola - your choice should definitely be in favor of Ecuadorian products.

The minimum order for Matthiola is 1 Quattro Box (=1 QB = 0.25 FB) in Ecuador and Colombia

We recommend placing orders for Matthiola well in advance - a few days before shipment from the farms, especially during periods of high demand such as Valentine's Day, March 8 and wedding season.

In addition, we advise you to regularly check the current offers on our web purchasing platform - fresh lots from trusted growers are posted here every day, often at attractive promotional prices
