Regyne Protea farm

Regyne, the biggest commercial protea farm in the world. Regyne’s protea fields cover 80 hectares and they produce flowers primarily for the export market.  Proteas are cut, sorted and trucked straight to the airport for export. 

Hanli Viljoen took us on a tour of the farm. We visited one of the fields where they grow King Proteas, South Africa’s national flower.  We were educated on how proteas are propagated, either from seeds or cuttings. We also saw the sorting & packing shed where the flowers are prepared, and packed as well as the cold room. Flowers reach their destination in Europe within 48hours!
