Finally a few pictures from our outdoor Begonia trials, each year we plant out the present commercial range of varieties along with lines which we are trialing as potential new introductions for the future, this year we have planted over 50 patio containers and a number of permanent stone troughs along with a few in the borders.
This gives us a great opportunity to live with the material and see exactly how it performs through the year in all weather conditions.
We have varieties from Dennis' breeding programme and others from Germany and America, most of these are close to becoming commercial.
Later this week we will have the first assessment of seedlings at Dennis' these are at the very early stage and could be 4-5 years away from coming to the market, will up date you on these in a few weeks time, in the meantime enjoy the pictures of our trials in Cheshire.
