Strong collective Dutch nursery stock entry at IPM 2024

image

Dutch tree nursery/ ornamental plant cultivation is traditionally well represented at the IPM in Esseen (D). 44 companies coming from all Dutch tree nursery centres will present themselves in the collective of BIZZ Holland in hall 8 directly adjacent to the entrance 'Ost' of the huge exhibition complex. The offer is broad: avenue trees, ornamental shrubs, conifers, roses, perennials, starting material and services.

The Dutch collective nursery stock entry will also host the Show Your Colours Award IPM 2024 pageant. Eleven plants have been nominated for this. All exhibitors at IPM Essen, with woody plants and perennials, could send in plants or plant concepts for this election. Eleven plants/plant concepts were eventually nominated from the entries. The Show Your Colours Award IPM 2024 will be presented on Thursday 25 January at 15.00 in the BIZZ Holland stand, hall 8, stand number 8A31. The Show Your Colours Award IPM 2024 is a collaboration between exhibition organisers IPM and BIZZ Holland.
