Spring Trials 2016 Updates
  A Handful of Changes from 2015 Event
(1/19/16) -- As plans are finalized for Spring Trials 2016, there are a handful of changes to participants and locations. We have now updated all of the details @ SpringTrials.org including individual listings in our Directory and details for our Travel Overview and Visit Planner.

Of note, Proven Winners is at a new location in Gilroy, Kirigan Cellars, from their prior location @ Chaminade Resort closer to the coast. This should make visits a bit easier in The North. Also in The North, HilverdaKooij will be @ American Takii, and PAC-Elsner will join the group at Floricultura.

In The Central, the folks at Floranova will not participate in 2016 and the stop at Ventura Botanical Gardens has been eliminated. Suntory will be at the GroLink facility. Further, EuroAmerican Propagators (with Plug Connection) will host a trial garden in Bonsall prior to Spring Trials. If we've missed anything, let us know.
