Spring Trials 2017 Underway
  Awesome new and novel varieties abound!
(4/1/17) -- We were glad to see Floranova return to Spring Trials after a year hiatus. New Cheerleader African Marigolds with enornmous flower heads greeted us among other new additions. Next door, GreenFuse Botanicals showcased new Rex Begonias among others.

Ball Horticulture offered so many items its hard to capture in a paragraph. Look for new calibrachoa, petunia, Burpee vegetables, and a complete series of ornamenal and edible peppers. Don't miss the new speckled petunia addition to Night Sky.

GroLink continues to advance the industry with multiple suppliers showcasing new WaterSaver items from PlantHaven, gerbera from Florist, and a great presentation from HortCouture. Suntory showed new varieties as did the other vendors. See you when we get back... lots to share.
