Quick Dips

Pruning Paste

Ten years of development work by scientist Adrian Spiers have paid off with HortResearch's first commercial venture, a pruning paste which protects damaged fruit trees from infection by silverleaf fungus.

More effective than any earlier product, the non-toxic paste is currently being tested prior to release next autumn. HortResearch and chemical manufacturing company Chemcolour plan worldwide marketing and ongoing development of the product.
