Limited Edition Seeds: feminized or mosaic seeds are a unique cross between a male and female plant. By crossing one of the plant‘s pollen cells with a male pollen cell, it creates a new plant with male flowers but a female stem. As new flowers develop, they will have different characteristics than their counterparts that are already available in the marketplace. Limited edition seeds (or feminized or mosaic) are an exciting new offering in the fragrance industry.
To understand why limited edition seeds are so exciting, it is important to understand how mosaics occur. Mosaics occur when a flower’s petals are clipped at the base with a sharp pair of cutters. The cut marks will form a ring that will continue to grow until the clippers are removed or the bloom dries out completely. If no petals are clipped, the flower will continue to grow until it matures and starts to bloom. Limited edition seeds are harvested as soon as a flower begins to flower.
When you buy limited edition seeds, they’re guaranteed to be a real treat for you and your loved ones for 9 weeks. In most cases, you’ll be able to buy only one or two bags of these fragrances at any given time. After nine weeks of continuous use, you can then freeze the remaining product in small containers, keep them fresh in a refrigerator or put them in a small bag and sell them throughout the year. When you’ve sold all of your product, you simply remove the cellophane and seal up the fragrance in an old jar.
Limited edition scents are made from concentrated, feminized or mosaic fragrances that contain the oil extracted from sweet pea flower (Moringa oleifera). Sweet pea flower is a highly prolific flowering plant that grows in large numbers all across the world. Moringa oleifera has been used for thousands of years to produce a wide variety of fragrances. Many fragrance manufacturers are currently using moringa as a medium because it is very versatile, easy to work with and produces high quality fragrances. In fact, some companies have started using it as a base instead of buying expensive, bulk fragrances from other companies.
The plants are feminized by extracting the oil from a very tiny seed pod. This seed is so tiny, it cannot be seen with the naked eye. It’s called a “pepper seed” because it contains a powerful, sweet, musky and spicy odor when the pollen is removed. A number of researchers and botanists have found that each pepper seed is actually only capable of producing about 0.5% of the essential oil when taken from flowering aroids. This makes the feminized seeds (which are also referred to as feminized or female plants) very desirable to fragrance manufacturers.
One benefit of using feminized or female flowers is that the aroma of the flowers itself is very powerful. You can actually get the full-strength, natural fragrance from just one bloom. However, each bloom has its own unique scent so you may not be able to get all the scents from a single bloom. For example, if a bloom were to dry out too much before you put it inside your fragrance jar, you would lose the aroma from that bloom. Because of this, perfumers will mix up the scents inside the jars of their creations. Usually, a quart of flowers will last about thirty days inside your container.
Limited Edition Seeds’ feminization process is made possible through cold compression. To complete the extraction process, a commercial cold compression machine is used. Cold compression machines to heat up the water in the chamber while simultaneously heating up the oil in the oil pump diffuser. The diffuser is specially designed to emit small amounts of pink, rose, violet and white aromas that will capture and blend with the feminized seed’s molecules. With forty-five days of continuous flowering aprox.
After forty-five days of flowering aprox, the feminized compact buds are removed from the containers and placed into large cotton bags. With these bags, the scent from the flowers is dispersed into the air. The oils within the compact buds will now settle down and take up a secondary scent, creating a soft, velvety scent in your home.
