Van Belle Introduces New 2017 Varieties
Van Belle Nursery has added eight new, exclusive varieties to its Bloomin’ Easy collection. These additions bring the total number of proprietary cultivars to 13 – a “baker’s dozen.”
Young plants of these new varieties will be distributed across North America to growers beginning this fall, and will be available in limited quantities in garden centers for spring and summer 2017.
Bloomin’ Easy is Van Belle Nursery’s line of improved, low-maintenance flowering shrubs for North American landscapes and patios. The brand is designed for casual gardeners and homeowners. Bloomin’ Easy encourages them to “jump-in” with relevant packaging, messaging and after-purchase support.
