Horticultural distributor Ball Seed has released the 2023 edition of its combined THRIVE and FLOURISH printed brochure for pro-landscaper solutions and garden center inspiration. This annual resource puts expert plant advice in the hands of greenhouse growers to help their customers build top-performing landscape designs and engage their retail audiences.

With topics and categories curated by Jeff Gibson, Ball Seed IGC and Landscape Business Manager, the 2023 brochure showcases dozens of new offerings, plus tried-and-true varieties for planting success across North America.

“Garden center business owners and landscape service professionals share a common bond – creating life-long gardening customers and clients,” Gibson says. “Combining these two audiences into one, easy-to-enjoy resources will offer inspiration and build confidence in the new plants hitting the market today.”

Some of the topics and trends covered in the 2023 THRIVE / FLOURISH brochure include:

Recommendations in perennials to grow your bottom line
New and tried-and-true annuals for sun or shade locations
Top garden center must haves to build customer excitement
