(Rumhora Adiantiformis)

Costa Rica has positioned itself as the number one worldwide supplier of the floral industry's most important cut green. Although leather leaf is grown in more than one of the country's microclimates, the last 20 years have taught us that a band of soil near the Poás volcano at approximately 1500 meters above sea level has proven to yield some of the highest quality green leaves the industry has ever known. IntraGreens' production comes from the heart of this area.

Using a high amount of organic soil amendments guarantees the dark leaf with a shine that distinguishes our product from the competition. Most of the cutters/packers on the plantation have years of experience grading our four sizes, Premium, Large (or Extra), Medium, and Small (Junior), and know to leave out the leaves with spores.

Guaranteed Freshness: IntraGreens is the very first exporter of leather leaf fern in the industry to put the interests of the end user first. Many floral arrangers have complained about a reduced shelf life over the last few years; that the fern dries out sooner than the flowers. Since the importers and wholesalers must sell ´first in - first out´ and many times maintain excessive inventories. Consequently, the end user obtains less than fresh leaves. IntraGreens only ships enough to meet each week's market demand; no old fern is ever pushed onto the consumer.

Look for the stamp on one of the ends of each box that says ´Best Before Week xx´. This stamp indicates that the fern can be purchased at the end of that particular week, used in an arrangement, and still do its job, no problem.

Guaranteed Sizing: Tired of getting irregular sizes in each bunch, twisted and unusable leaves? IntraGreens has started a campaign of sizing and selection to help the consumer know exactly what he can expect when purchasing the product. Sizing is as follows :

Premium: Minimum 70 centimeters in length.
Extra: Between 60 - 70 centimeters
Medium: Between 50 - 60 centimeters
Junior: Greater than 40 centimeters

Availability: We ship all year long, but quantities are somewhat limited.
