Production fields
Our production areas have been built up gradually since 2000 and recently renovated in autumn 2012 and spring 2013. The total production was 2,500 m2. In 2022, we expanded the production areas by another approx. 1,900 m2, so the total area of production fields is currently 4,400 m2.
♦ Our employees are trained in how to recognize early symptoms of disease and other pest. Plants that appear the first symptoms of damage are regularly removed and destroyed including the soil. The pot is cleaned and sterilized. ♦ In the hosta production we do not use the same soil two times. |
Our production areas are not open for public. If you want to visit us, please contact us by email on dana@eurohosta.com or call us by phone and ask for time and conditions of visit. ♦ For multiplication of plants we use instruments that are regularly sterilized after each plant solution of Clorox 1:10. ♦ Some of the plants that we buy directly from in vitro producers and they are 100 % guaranteed healthy. ♦ The areas are regularly inspected by state inspection offices, workplace UKSUP focusing on the presence of invasive organisms and plants are tested for HVX virus. |
