Stock Incana Iron Deep Pink

Stock Incana Iron Deep Pink Seeds

Matthiola incana Iron Deep Pink is part of the Iron series by Sakata Ornamentals. While Rose Pink offers a soft, warm medium tone, Deep Pink delivers a more saturated, deeper, and more vivid pink that commands stronger visual attention in arrangements. The intense color concentration along the densely packed spike creates an immediate and confident floral presence suited to designs where a strong pink statement is required.
Structurally, the stems share all the defining qualities of the Iron series: tall, rigid, and exceptionally strong, with tightly spaced florets that retain their form well post-harvest. Approximately 55% of plants produce double flowers without seedling selection. Flower bud initiation requires nighttime temperatures below 15–18°C for 10–21 days, naturally available during the Gulf winter season.
