Top 100 Ornamental Grower Earns New Sustainability Certification
Botany Lane Greenhouses, which was #77 on Greenhouse Grower’s 2020 Top 100 Growers list with 835,000 square feet of environmentally controlled ornamentals production, recently earned the Veriflora Sustainably Grown label.
Veriflora Sustainably Grown is a certification program for sustainable horticulture and floriculture. Botany Lane earned the label by meeting the highest levels of performance under three internally recognized pillars of sustainability: environmental stewardship, social responsibility, and economic stability.
Botany Lane successfully exhibited healthy, safe, and fair working conditions, protection of soil and water resources, responsible agrochemical use, energy efficiency, climate impact reduction, ecosystem protection, product quality, and community engagement.
“We are very proud of this certification, as it validates all the hard work we are doing as a company to align our practices with the Veriflora standards to keep us focused on sustainability within our community,” says Scott Fulton, General Manager of Botany Lane.
Botany Lane is a wholesale grower of top-quality premium plants and flowers with three facilities located in Texas and Colorado. It propagates and grows plants in liners and finished sizes, including annuals, perennials, succulents, herbs and veggies, tropical flowering, and foliage.
