Plantpeddler Poinsettia Variety Day Set for December 1
November 17, 2022 Poinsettia growers and other interested industry members are invited to Cresco, IA, on Thursday, Dec. 1, for Plantpeddler’s Poinsettia Variety Day. The company is currently trialing more than 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, Dümmen Orange, Lazzeri, Rinehart Poinsettias, Selecta One, Suntory, and Syngenta Flowers. Breeder representatives will be present to support their genetics and growers.
Again this year, the Fantasy Colors Poinsettia Painting Guru, Andrew Lee of Ball Horticultural, will be doing demonstrations on unique and exciting ways to enhance your poinsettias with paint and glitter.
The Plantpeddler Poinsettia Trial is one of the premier trials in the country and the northernmost 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.
An RSVP is recommended by calling 800-827-1654, emailing [email protected], or registering at Plantpeddler.com.
