Nominations for Show Your Colours Award IPM

Ten plants have been nominated for the Show Your Colours Award IPM 2020. All of the exhibitors at IPM Essen with woody plants and perennials were able to submit plants or plant concepts for this award. Ultimately, ten of the plants/plant concepts entered were nominated. The Show Your Colours Award IPM 2020 will be presented at 3.00 pm on Thursday 30 January in the BIZZ Holland stand, hall 8, stand number 8A40.

The Show Your Colours Award IPM was introduced to encourage participants in the trade fair to put their products with added value under the spotlight. The nominated plants distinguish themselves from other products in terms of (leaf) colour, shape, name, the fruit they bear, tolerance to drought and heat, and sustainability.
