Entries for Best Technical Product or Service include:
• Osmocote Bloom from Scotts Professional – a controlled released fertilizer for bedding production. Its 2-3 month longevity eliminates the need for water soluble fertilizers and it promotes quicker and better rooting.
• Electronic & Technical Services will show its Evaposensor and interface for mist and irrigation control, which enables accurate matching of water use to plant requirements. It automatically adjusts mist, fog or irrigation applications according to the plant environment and weather.
And latest entries for Best New Retail Product include Vivid Arts’ fun meerkat ornament range – launched last year, it helps garden retailers maximise on the high awareness for meerkats and enables centres to bring some life and amusement into their retail displays.
Products will be judged during the one-day show and awards made on the day.
The venue will be Dorset’s Golden Acres Nursery near Bournemouth International Airport.
