PW Adds To Packaging Program

Proven Winners (PW) is making new pots and POP kits available for several of the varieties in its Proven Packages program.

For the 2006-2007 growing season, growers will have the option of purchasing any-sized, traditional, white PW branded pot or a ‘Broadway Lights’ leucantheum-specific 4-color 1 gal. pot. One pot must be purchased for each plant ordered.

‘Broadway Lights’-specific POP kits also will be available so retailers can create “destinations” for this specific variety in their stores. New tags have also been developed to match the new containers. The new pots, tags and POP material will also be available for several other PW varieties in 2006-2007.
