A new MSU website has been developed for greenhouse growers of floriculture crops: http://flor.hrt.msu.edu. In the “Production Information” tab, over 100 MSU articles that were first printed in the popular greenhouse trade magazines are available to download. The articles focus on production information of specific crop types (annual bedding plants, perennials, and potted flowering plants) as well as on growing and cultural practices (managing light and temperature, and use of PGRs). Articles on marketing have also been recently added. This website replaces the older MSU Floriculture Area of Expertise website.

The website also contains links to related MSU websites for the floriculture industry, such as:

Many of these websites are updated frequently, so check back often for the most recent research-based information generated at MSU. You’ll also find information on grower outreach activities and educational programs for the floriculture industry in Michigan and beyond.
