Unsprayed and residue-free

Thursday 14 November 2024

Preparations for Advent and Christmas are in full swing and that means plenty of greenery at Andromeda.

The greenery at Andromeda nursery is unsprayed and residue-free. Not a drop of chemistry gets on the conifers and hedges. For four years now, growers Friso, Peter and Wim have not used those agents. Checkable in their MPS-A+ accounts.

In spring, they spray an organic SKAL-certified bacterial preparation against brown tips. One location is completely chemical-free. At the other location, they still use a herbicide against weeds on the soil.

Wim: ‘’Important to know and pass on: You can put our conifers in your mouth just like that, so to speak. Only the yew species are naturally poisonous. The other conifer species are non-toxic and strong-tasting. For lovers!‘’

Dyed products are not residue-free, of course, because they have dye on or in them.
