Product Overview

Eryngium, commonly known as Sea Holly, is a bold, textured flower admired for its metallic-blue hue, spiky petals, and sculptural form. Its unique appearance adds depth, character, and a modern edge to both fresh-cut and dried floral arrangements.

At Pomona Exporters Limited, our Eryngium is cultivated in Kenya’s cool high-altitude regions such as Timau, Naivasha, and Kinangop, where the combination of fertile soils and temperate climate produces intensely colored bracts, strong stems, and long vase life.

Eryngium is highly valued by florists and floral designers in the Netherlands, across Europe, the Middle East, and Russia, where it’s often used in boutiques, wedding décor, and mixed bouquet exports. Pomona ensures every stem is cut at the right maturity stage, hydrated, and pre-cooled immediately to retain its signature vibrance and freshness throughout transport.
