New Colombian Cut Flower Provides Region With New Opportunity

The Inirida flower, sold in the U.S. as Stella, is changing lives in the region of Eastern Colombia where it is grown.  With incredible shelf life and broad appeal due to its unique form and color, this Stella is absolutely stellar!  This little-known wild flower is changing lives in the small area of the Colombian-Venezuelan border home to Colombia’s Sikuani Indegenous people.  Stella flowers are imported through Gardens America and available through many IFD Distributors.  See the Thursd.com story on Inirida!
