LEDs were new to the market when Walters Gardens set up its first lighting trial. Now 3 acres of greenhouse space are under LED lighting.

Zeeland, Michigan-based Walters Gardens grows millions of perennial liners each year, which are shipped to independent garden centers, wholesale growers, landscapers and municipalities across the U.S. and Canada. Walters Gardens was an early adopter of LED lighting technology, and we asked Aren Phillips, greenhouse systems manager, to describe the process of trialing and implementing LEDs throughout the operation.
