As part of a new initiative by LO designers and growers to collect information on all woody plants grown in Ontario, your feedback is required to connect those who specify plants in their designs with those who grow them.

Input on their suitability for various uses, the need for more or less production, problems and diseases, successful alternatives and desirable characteristics will help to benefit all those involved.

Simply visit horttrades.com/ontario-woody-plants for the full list with links to short surveys on the plants listed below and in the previous issue.
