Clematis Amazing® Tokyo nominated!

We are delighted and proud to share that Clematis Amazing® Tokyo has been nominated as a finalist for the Glass Tulip Award in the cut flowers category. Developing a new Clematis variety takes years of breeding and propagation, so this nomination is a truly fitting reward for all that dedication and hard work.

What is the Glass Tulip Award?

The Glass Tulip Award is a prestigious prize presented annually by Royal FloraHolland to recognise the most innovative and promising market introductions in the floriculture industry. New varieties are an important way to stand out on the international stage. The award celebrates products and concepts that excel in originality, craftsmanship and market potential.

Your vote makes the difference

A panel of experts has selected five finalists in the Cut Flowers category, including our Clematis Amazing® Tokyo. Now it’s over to the public: your vote will decide the winner!

Voting is open until the 24th of September and the winners will be announced on October 9th at the Floradôme in Aalsmeer. In 2020, Talinum ‘Long John’ won the Glass Tulip Award in the cut flower category. Can Clematis Amazing® Tokyo take home the prize this year?

What makes Clematis Amazing® Tokyo unique

Clematis Amazing® Tokyo is the most vigorous variety in the Clematis Amazing® family, with:

• Long stems up to 80 cm
• Six large flowers per stem
• A vase life of 14 days

The blooms open gradually, from the base of the stem upwards. Despite its strong character, Tokyo appears delicate, graceful and airy. The flowers feature soft pink tones with contrasting yellow stamens. The stems are strong yet flexible, making them wonderfully versatile: ideal for weaving through a framework, in a cascading bouquet, or standing out in a hand-tied arrangement.

Did you know that Tokyo’s flowers turn upwards when the stem is placed horizontally? This is due to a natural phenomenon called geotropism. Real flower magic!

Designer feedback

"It was wonderful working with Clematis Amazing® Tokyo. The first thing that stood out was how many flowers were on a single stem. Then the beautiful colour and the impressive size of the blooms. The delicate veining of the petals contrasts so well with the stamens… a truly stunning combination. Highly recommended!" – Krisztián Kövér

In just a short time, Clematis Amazing® Tokyo has captured the hearts of leading floral designers and florists. We’ve seen it featured in a calming installation by Joseph Massie, a breathtaking bridal bouquet by Hanneke Frankema, a summery arrangement by Krisztián Kövér and a serene funeral design by Chantal Post.

We asked these designers to share their experiences with Tokyo. Curious about their stories?
