Myrtle Rust

 Myrtle rust has continued its spread through parts of New Zealand during the Summer and the number of infected sites had reached 249 by the first week of February.
As a result, the Ministry for Primary Industries has begun to change its response from attempted eradication to long-term management.         Read more. . .

A correction: two figures in the chart detailing the numbers of infected plants printed on page 2 of Feb/Mar Commercial Horticulture Magazine got mixed up --
the number of metrosideros infected as at the first week of February was 89 from 28,182 trees inspected, not 8928 from 182 as printed.

 North Island Trade Day, Hamilton, August

The Claudelands Arena Event Centre in Hamilton, has been booked for Auckland Trade Day – or more properly North Island Trade Day – on 8 August this year.

Venue plans and bookings for stands will be available shortly.

The decision to shift the Auckland event to Hamilton was taken after extensive searches failed to identify suitable venues in Auckland at acceptable prices.

The Claudelands Centre ticks all the boxes. It is big and modern, easily accessible and has plenty of parking.

Apart from having a lot less traffic congestion issues than Auckland, we feel Hamilton is also now closer to the heart of nursery production in the North Island.

It is easy to reach by road or air and has plenty of accommodation. There are also other attractions there to bring added value to a visit.
