Sakata Seed America, Inc.and Dümmen Orange have resolved disagreements that led each to notify ornamental growers and customers over the past several weeks about termination of the companies’ relationship.

To ensure that no customers — brokers, growers or retailers — are affected, the companies have agreed that Dümmen Orange may continue to sell and ship Sakata’s SunPatiens and all other Sakata genetics through March 31, 2016, after which Dümmen Orange will no longer be an authorized distributor of Sakata ornamentals. While Dümmen Orange may confirm orders for its SunStanding impatiens varieties, Dümmen Orange will not ship any such orders until after March 31, 2016.
