Plant Culture Data Sheets
SHRF Collection: Plant Culture Data Sheets
The Plant Culture Data Sheet project began in 1985 under the direction of Director Phillip McMillan Browse. This project continues in an effort to provide more information about the various selections that have come through the Saratoga Horticultural Research Foundation Program. Over time, the decision was made to not update the data sheets, but, rather to present them in a historical sense reflecting the earliest dates of cultivar introduction. This information has been culled from the files of the Foundation and will be added to as more information is found and processed. As a benefit of membership, periodically our newsletter will announce new data sheets as they become available.
