Celebrating Royal Flowers’ award-winning Ecuadorian roses recognized at SAF 2025 for their vibrant colors, premium quality, and lasting beauty.
Royal Flowers proudly shines at SAF 2025, earning top honors for three new Ecuadorian rose varieties. With vibrant colors, long vase life, and unmatched quality, these award-winning roses set a new standard for the global wholesale floral market.
Introduction
Ecuadorian wholesale roses have long set the standard for quality in the global floral market, admired for their vibrant colors, large heads, and unmatched vase life. As demand for premium roses continues to grow, Ecuador stands out as a trusted source for florists, event designers, and retailers worldwide.
This season, Royal Flowers proudly carries that legacy forward. At the Society of American Florists (SAF) annual event held from August 11th to the 14th in the USA, our dedication to excellence was recognized with top honors for three exceptional new rose varieties, marking another milestone in our mission to bring the finest Ecuadorian roses to the world.
Meet Our Award-Winning Varieties
Each season brings opportunities to showcase the best of Ecuadorian roses, and this year, three of our newest varieties have taken the spotlight. Recognized at the SAF 2025 Awards, these roses stand out not only for their striking beauty but also for their consistency, longevity, and suitability for high-demand wholesale markets.
Mamma Mia – The Bold Red Winner
This striking red rose earned two prestigious awards: “The Best in Class” SAF 2025 Outstanding Varieties Winner and “2025 Best Cut Rose” SAF 2025 Blue Ribbon Winner.
Radiant and bold, the Mamma Mia boasts an impressive full bloom and a vivid red hue, making it an ideal symbol of affection for occasions like Valentine’s Day, Mother’s Day, and Christmas. Mamma Mia is set to become a standout in wholesale Ecuadorian roses.

Mango Tango – A Vibrant Bicolor Statement
Winner of the “2025 Red Ribbon Award” SAF Outstanding Varieties Competition, Mango Tango features a warm orange gradient reminiscent of a tropical sunset.
This rose is designed to shine in autumn events, bringing a burst of rich color and lively energy to any setting. Its impressive size and striking colors make it an exceptional choice for creating a vibrant and joyful ambiance, perfect for celebrating the fall season with style and elegance.

Tina – The Hot Pink Standout
Also honored with the “2025 Red Ribbon Award”, Tina stands out for its intense hot pink hue and outstanding longevity, making it one of the most reliable wholesale Ecuadorian pink roses.

Innovation Rooted in Tradition
These new champions represent evolution in rose breeding, building upon beloved classics while introducing exciting improvements. Mamma Mia elevates the standard set by the Freedom Red Rose with a more intense, vibrant tone and a notably larger bud size. While Freedom has long been a classic choice, Mamma Mia’s enhanced head size creates more dramatic arrangements while maintaining that beloved deep red aesthetic.
Furthermore, Mango Tango brings a fresh perspective to the bicolor category previously dominated by varieties like the Silantoi Bicolor Novelty Rose. With its warm orange gradient reminiscent of a tropical sunset, Mango Tango offers florists a vibrant alternative while maintaining the sophisticated bicolor appeal that designers love.
Additionally, Tina revolutionizes the pink rose segment, building on the reliability that made Topaz a go-to choice. However, Tina’s hot pink intensity and exceptional vase life significantly surpass typical pink varieties, making it perfect for special occasions where lasting beauty is paramount.
Endless Creative Possibilities
These award-winning varieties open up new creative horizons for florists and designers. From weddings that showcase Mamma Mia’s bold elegance to editorial shoots that feature Mango Tango’s unique bicolor artistry, these roses are designed to inspire. Tina’s vibrant pink and extended vase life make it ideal for home décor, while mixing all three varieties creates dynamic, award-winning centerpieces for any event.
At Royal Flowers, these awards reaffirm our dedication to excellence in wholesale Ecuadorian roses. As we look ahead, our focus remains on cultivating exceptional varieties, ensuring consistent availability, and delivering the quality that has made Ecuadorian roses a global standard.
