Foliage Plant Production

Information below focuses on production of foliage plants.  General information is near the top of this page and more crop specific information is towards the bottom of this page.

General Info:
Simplify production with cutting time TM callused cuttings (Syngenta).
​
Plant Growth Regulation:
Controlling growth in five species of herbaceous foliage plants (Pennisi, 2014. UGA Extension Bull., #925).
Plant growth regulators effects on the growth and photosynthetic pigments on three indoor ornamental plants. (Sardoei, 2014. Europ. J Expt. Biol., 4(2):311-318.
A new growth regulator for greenhouse plants (Hickman, 1986.  California Agr., October).

Begonia:
Recycling the Rex Begonia (Schoellhorn, GPN, Nov., 2002).

Boston Fern:
Thermomorphogenic and photoperiodic responses of Nephrolepis exaltata 'Dallas Jewel' (Erwin et al., 1993).

Chlorophytum (Spider plant):
Influence of photoperiod and light quality on stolon formation and flowering of Chlorophytum comosum (Thunb.) Jacques (Heins and Wilkins, 1978).

Ginger:
How to grow superfoods ginger and turmeric in containers (Flores, Frey and Fisher, Greenhouse Grower, 2018)

Ipomea (Sweet Potato Vine)
Culture report:  Ipomea SolarPower series (Carlsson, 2016).
Producing ornamental sweet potato vine commercially (Carey, Whipker and Buhler, 2007).
