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.

Mambo™ GP Series by Hem Genetics BV

From HEM Genetics, Spring Trials 2016: The next generation genetic dwarf petunias are indicated by the characters “GP” which stands for Garden performance. Compared to the first generation genetic dwarf petunias, the GPs perform exactly the same for the greenhouse grower with compact habit for ease of culture without PGRs. The difference in garden performance is noticeable to consumers because they show more growth vigor, resulting in a more robust plant habit with an even better performance in containers, beds, and the landscape. Better branching and reduced leaf development provides better airflow which reduces the risk of disease, especially botrytis. Limbo™ petunias are perfect for high-density pack production, containers and hanging baskets. Four new colors: 'Orchid Veined', 'Red Morn', 'Mid Blue', and 'Rose More'.
