Number of Cultivars

The trial garden contained 394 cultivars of annual

flowers. Of those cultivars, 88 were grown in

hanging baskets and containers

Planting Date in Display Garden

Started planting on May 25 and completed on June

2.

Growing Season Weather Summary

The 2010 growing season, (frost free), was 159

days, (average is 144) with the last spring frost on

May 9 and a light fall frost on October 16. Rainfall

between May 1 and September 30 was 22.05 inches,

6.2 inches above normal. September temperatures

were below normal, May, through August were

above normal. During this same period there were

only 6 days above 90 degrees.

Fertilization

All planting media contains Nutricote 13-13-13,

100 day fertilizer. Greenhouse plants received one

application of Superthrive vitamins and hormone

treatment before spring transplant. Each flowerbed

received an application of 19-19-20 fertilizer prior

to planting the site. Each flowerbed received

additional applications of General Purpose 20-10-20

liquid foliar fertilizer once every month during the

growing season. Hanging basket and container

plants were fertilized directly after transplant into

containers and then bi-weekly with water soluble

20-10-20 peat lite.

Irrigation

Annuals are watered as needed throughout the

season with overhead irrigation.

Greenhouse Growing Problems

All greenhouse plants received a plant shield drench

prior to transplant into growing containers. Minor

incidence of fungus gnats, aphids, spider mites, and

thrips occurred throughout the season. Insect

control was achieved through the use of Preclude

TR, Attain TR, and Orthene. Containers and

hanging baskets received an application of

marathon granular insecticide at transplant into

permanent containers.

Disease Problems

Some chlorosis on select petunias and Calibrachoa.

Pest control

Deer scram granular was applied for deer and rabbit

control on a biweekly application in the display

garden. Liquid fence deer repellent was applied

twice as a rotation.

Herbicide Use, Weed Removal

The herbicide XL2G was applied right after

transplanting in display garden and again in late

August and incorporated with irrigation.

Mechanical and hand weeding was applied as

needed.

Growth Retardants

Florel growth retardant was applied twice to seeded,

zonal and ivy geraniums. The sprays were at a rate

of 350 ppm or 35 mls per one gallon of water. The

first application was made 10 days after transplant

with the second application made 10 days later.

Deadheading

Geraniums were deadheaded to maintain clean

appearance and promote flowering. All other

annuals were deadheaded as needed.
