As part of the new AHDB Horticulture-funded project ‘New poinsettia genetics and controlled substrate moisture growing’, two events are being staged during 2017 and 2018 to review a number of new poinsettia varieties and explore the potential of growth control with plant growth regulators other than chlormequat in the short term, and without the need for any chemical growth regulator in the longer term.
The first event will be staged at Neame Lea Nurseries on 16 November 2017 and the second at the National Centre for Food Manufacturing on 16 January 2018.
DATE: 16/11/2017
