Sizzling Crops for 2011 Bred in Melbourne Victoria – the garden state. ‘Ascot Rainbow’ has everything. Super year round interest, gorgeous foliage flushing orange and fire red tones in the cooler months of fall through early spring. In the spring new gold & green variegated foliage really packs Ideal for use in mixed container plantings or for areas with low water availability. This Mediterranean native has it all. We are hopeful this winter will be its second coming through a Zone 5b in Michigan. At present we list this crop as a conservative USDA Zone 7, 0ºF (or -18ºC).

From Breeder to Market® It is so important that our crops are able to stand on their own two feet or botanically their own roots!!! There are no short cuts to success & we ensure the trialing is completed to our satisfaction before the green light is given to showcase on the red carpet. We at PlantHaven want you to have every success with our PlantHaven managed selections. This fall the team has been extremely busy setting up two new trial gardens, so over the coming months we will be able to keep you posted with developments on the new crops & help expand our Exclusive PlantHaven Image library which, as PlantHaven Breeders, Licensees, and Agents you have exclusive access to. January is a great time to talk to PlantHaven’s plant project managers to ensure you are covered for trials for the coming season. Your PlantHaven plant project management team & key contacts are: Maureen -Annuals / Perennials / Shrubs / Trees Email: maureen.needham@planthaven.com
Until next month, have a great January, Kind regards |
