During FlowerTrials (9–12 June), Kolster, a Boskoop-based breeder in the Netherlands, will introduce nine new garden plants within its Magical Garden Plants concept. The breeder has selected healthy, robust varieties that help ensure grower success. During FlowerTrials, these shrubs and perennials can be seen not only in a booth, but also at the nursery. Join the Magical Garden Tour and discover how these novelties (and more) perform in container fields and in open ground.
