Plantpeddler invites the industry to Cresco, Iowa on Thursday, Dec. 1 for Plantpeddler Poinsettia Variety Day 2022. In trial, there are over 160 commercial and pre-release Poinsettia varieties, produced under true production protocols and environmental conditions. Poinsettias from all major breeders will be represented in the trial, including Beekenkamp, Dummen Orange, Lazzeri, Rinehart Poinsettias, Selecta One, Suntory and Syngenta Flowers. Breeder representatives will be present to support their genetics and growers.
Again, this year, Andrew Lee of Ball Horticulture, the fantasy colors poinsettia painting guru, will be doing demonstrations on unique and exciting ways to enhance your Poinsettias with paint and glitter.
The Plantpeddler Poinsettia Trial is proven as one of the premier trials in the country and the northern most trial in the U.S. It reflects commercial production under variable fall conditions of the Upper Midwest. This trial is grown with minimal enhancement with growth regulators to show natural vigor and habit of varieties.
To make the best of Poinsettia Variety Day, RSVP. Contact Plantpeddler at www.plantpeddler.com, email info@plantpeddler.com or call (800) 827-1654 and ask for Stacy. Travel guide, accommodation and event information is available.
