2016 Lucas Greenhouses Field Trials Results

2016 Field Trials at Lucas GreenhousesLucas Greenhouses conducted the largest trial it has put together so far this year during a busy, hot, dry summer. The summer trials included nearly 800 containers and featured every item Lucas Greenhouses offers in its liner program, which made them a great resource for customers. Fall trials featured 300 varieties of mums from Gediflora, Ball, and Syngenta. This trial was laid out by flower color and timing, which made for an excellent tool when comparing mums. The (in-ground) landscape trialing area included every variety of SunPatiens. Trial Manager Jason Szymanski says the SunPatiens had incredible summer performance, and they were a homerun with trial attendees. Canna Cannova, and Whopper and Big Begonias were also impressive in the landscape.
