Even More Leading Breeders Offering a Range of Drought-Tolerant Varieties

By Julie Hullett|July 31, 2024

Breeders are hard at work developing new varieties every year. Among many traits that they are working to achieve in new products, one of them is drought tolerance. As weather patterns change in many regions and temperatures rise, breeders are developing plants with lesser water needs. Check out these drought-tolerant varieties from HilverdaFlorist, Kieft Seed, Kientzler, and Monrovia. Also, make sure to check out Parts 1 and 2 of our drought-tolerant slideshows featuring additional plant breeders, and stay tuned for more variety slideshows here at Greenhouse Grower.
