45th Annual Fleuroselect Convention July 22-24

Prepare for historic Norfolk, English gardens and extensive trials of ornamental flowers and vegetables. The 45th Annual Fleuroselect Convention hosted by Floranova will take place from 22-24 July 2014 in Norwich, U.K. Floranova is a specialised breeder of flower seed varieties and its portfolio also comprises vegetatively propagated products. In 2009, Floranova formed a separate corporate entity, Vegetalis, specialising in the breeding of new & novel vegetable varieties.

The programme includes a visit to the stately home, Blickling Hall, noted for its parterre garden and double borders. In addition to a tour of the house and gardens, the organisers have arranged a seminar on how US Show Gardens share data using web technologies. Norwich is home to the John Innes Centre, an independent, international centre of excellence in plant science and microbiology and a programme of topical presentations has been prepared for our group. A visit to this wonderful part of Britain would not be complete without a boat trip on the famous Norfolk Boards. The awards will be presented during the Gala Dinner at the Tudor-Jacobean mansion Somerleyton Hall. Take your agenda/smartphone and block these dates!
