Video of the Week: Plantpeddler Variety Day 2023

Posted by Brian Sparks|September 15, 2023

Every two weeks, Greenhouse Grower highlights a video that shines a spotlight on the controlled-environment industry, from crop protection advice to insider views on plant production at greenhouse operations across the country. Have you recently produced a video you want us to highlight? If so, please send a link to Greenhouse Grower Senior Editor Brian Sparks at [email protected].

Plantpeddler’s 2023 Variety Day took place on Friday, August 4, 2023. Variety Day is focused on the goal of “Testing the Best in the Midwest”, with nearly 1,500 varieties of vegetative annuals in large containers, hanging baskets, and beds from a global array of breeders. Along with the Trial Gardens, the day featured presentations, a vendor-sponsor trade show, lunch, tours, and additional activities.

In the video below, breeder representatives present key selections from the gardens. Plantpeddler greatly appreciate all of the breeders for submitting genetics, supporting vendor partner sponsors, the team at Plantpeddler for all their efforts and hosting, and everyone who attended.

Plantpeddler’s Poinsettia Variety Day 2023 is on Nov. 30, and the company will host Variety Day 2024 on August 2. Please make plans to attend both events. For more information, go to www.plantpeddler.com.
