Jenny nursery, a local quality horticulture
Our passion for our work, coupled with 25 years of experience and the very best in equipment means that we can produce a wide selection of the very highest quality geraniums.
Whether they are to be planted in pots or planters, in borders or directly into the ground, our geraniums, petunias and perennials will embellish your parks and gardens with beauty and colour.
An Elsass Geranium cultivated by Pépinières Jenny provides our clients with :
- A geranium production that adheres to strict standards throughout all stages of production and commercialisation.
- Utilisation of reusable and bio-compostable pots (13cm diameter).
- A minimum cultivation period of 10 weeks (at Pépinières Jenny, our geraniums are cultivated over 4 months, which allows the plant time to properly establish itself).
- Utilisation of the best quality potting soil.
- For our Elsass Geraniums, a registered mother stock is used for cuttings. For the rest of our production, we take our own cuttings, thus greatly reducing the need for transport and thereby minimising our carbon footprint.
- Laboratory analysis of the plants and substrates guarantees the absence of pathogens and ensures that the fertilisation process is adequate for the needs of the plants.
- Recording all production processes to ensure traceability.
- An Integrated Farming approach (IF): IF uses biological controls to prevent pest infestations. The balance of the eco-system is maintained through the introduction of living auxiliary organisms that predate on the pests that would otherwise cause damage to the geranium plants. This approach also involves other protective measures (the sterilisation of pots, knives and other equipment). The practice of IF methods does not necessarily mean the implementation of organic farming; in certain cases the nursery is permitted to use chemical controls deemed to be compatible.
