Pistoia based Vivai Gabellini have reported a fine return from their debut at the IOG Saltex exhibition. Their variety of large trees such as Quercus, Fagus, Carpinus (Oaks, Hornbeam and Beech) in different forms including very large screening espaliers scored well with Estate Managers and Parks Officers seeking high quality material for future projects. In advance of the event, the majority of their plant material exhibited had already been reserved by the Crown Estate Office for use in Windsor Great Park. They will be strongly considering in repeating their presence in the show.
The large terracotta pots from the Italian Terracotta Company attracted much interest resulting in a surprising number of orders despite the harsh economic climate.. Local authorities were also very interested in the large plastic moulded tree and plant containers from Hillary’s Pagani (HP group) for use in public places.
