Florestan I was champion of the 1988 Rhineland approval and won his performance test in Warendorf the following year. As a sire, Florestan I has sired over 50 approved sons, included Fidermark, a four-year-old champion at the Bundeschampionate and now Grand Prix performer. At the 2002 Bundeschampionate, Florestan had 5 representatives including the 4-year-old stallion winner, French Kiss. French Kiss went on to win the World Young Dressage Horse championship for 6 year olds in 2004, while another Florestan son, Florencio won the 5 year old title at the same show.  Florestan I also sired the Floriano, who represented the United States at the Olympics, the World Cup, and the WEG under Steffen Peters.  Floriano was imported to the US and originally campaigned for the US by Melanie Pai and Canaan Ranch!

Florestan's dam, Raute was a successful show mare, and at the age of three was champion mare of her age group. In 1983 she won her class at the German Mare Show in Verden. The grand dam is the state premium mare, Gode, a full sister to the Warendorf state stallion, Gardist. This bloodline, whose roots trace to the traditional Hanoverian state of Hänigsen, also produced the 1998 Bundeschampionate winner, Roman Nature, as well as a large number of successful competition horses.

As of March 2006 Florestan had the following offspring showing at International Grand Prix.
