Don’t miss the Ball Summer Showcase

 

There’s still time to get a heads up and see more than 200 new annuals and perennials at the Ball Summer Showcase that could be gracing planterias in 2024.

 

Running on selected dates until 27 July, at Ball’s HQ and trials ground in Banbury, Oxon, it’s the place to see retail concepts and ideas, around 2,000 experimental varieties that could become new introductions and hear a talk at 11am by Stuart Lowen, Ball’s Marketing Manager, on plants for the future.

 

Stuart warmly welcomes retail buyers, planteria managers and teams to come along with or without their growers to see the plants for themselves to help them make decisions about plant sales in 2024. Alongside the many annuals which the company is famed for, is an increasing selection of perennials (the fastest growing category), including the cobolt blue Agapanthus ‘Starry Night’, succulents and now houseplants.
