ISU honors four novelties with the ISU Awards in Angers
29 perennial novelties were entered for the International Hardy Plant-Union (ISU) trial in Angers. 25 could be evaluated, reported Jonas Bengtsson, President of the ISU Trial Commission at the meeting on August 11 in Angers. He presented the varieties to the committee and then evaluated them with the members of the viewing commission at the outdoor facility of the INH University. Here they were planted and cared for over 1.5 years.
In the trial commission Bernd Hertle, Weihenstephan-Triesdorf University of Applied Sciences and Chairman of the Perennial Plant Sighting Working Group in the Association of German Perennial Gardeners, provided detailed information on the results of the completed sightings. At 18 locations in Germany, Austria, Switzerland and the Czech Republic, assortments are planted and evaluated in locations with different climates, thus achieving reliable assessments of perennial assortments. Jo Bogaerts from Belgium spoke in favor of integrating the sighting in Belgium here as well. Ronald Houtman announced the opening of a 4 ha garden in Boskoop, in which Baptisia varieties, among others, will be judged. The garden will be financed in part by the users and the city of Alphen aan den Rijn. Paul Goderham informed about the trial in England, which is organized by the Royal Horticultural Society RHS.
