Hartwig Bull and myself have had the chance to visit Schoneveld Breeding in Holland.

Ton Koers and Kathy McKay given us a interssting tour in the new ‘State of the Art’ breeding facility.

Realy impressive the technique, cleaness and structure of the building. What else would you expect from a first class breeder in Cyclamen and others!

Thanks to Kathy and Ton!

Checking out Bull-Plant-Genetics in the North of Germany

Being in the Netherlands a trip in to the north of Germany is not a big deal.

Kathy McKay known for her engagement with Schoneveld and promoting products for Flamingo Holland Inc. took the opportunity to visit Hartwig Bull.

Promoting products is best when you throw an eye on the product at the breeders place.

Also some ‘Sunbeckia’ could be inspected.

‘Sunbeckia Mia’ planted in wk 17
good rooting even in the cold (45°F)
‘Sunbeckia Mia’ 6 weeks later
ready for spacing

Unfortunately Kathy had no chance to see the ‘Sunbeckia’ finished except the ones shown at Cultivate ’21 in Columbus.

‘Sunbeckia Mia’ from wk 17
finished in 10 weeks (later because of the cold)

Good visit with fruitful discussions at the base all around the product!

Any questions? Please contact us!
