The tour was conducted by Provender’s managing director, and IPPS committee member, Richard McKenna. This is a fantastic opportunity to see one of the first Plant Healthy Certified nurseries in the UK growing a huge selection of plants including hedging, shrubs, specimen plants, herbaceous, grasses, bamboo and topiary over their 18-acre site. If you missed the live Q&A session, catch-up with the recording now.
Please join us in viewing one of Denmark’s largest production nurseries, Gunnar Christensens Planteskole, who annually produce over two million plants across their 25-hectare site. Their range includes berry bushes, ornamental shrubs, perennials, herbs and strawberries. Gunnar Christensens thinks green and has more than 25 years’ experience growing using biological plant protection.
