Nursery Enters its Golden Days at Sunborne Nursery with Agra Tech

Indoor plants serve a practical and aesthetic purpose, and are good for our health because they release oxygen and absorb carbon dioxide while eliminating harmful toxins. Extensive research by NASA has revealed that indoor plants can remove up to 87 per cent of all airborne toxins in 24 hours. Studies have also proven that indoor plants improve concentration and productivity (by up to 15 percent!), reduce stress levels and help people to feel more relaxed and improve their everyday mood.

Guillaume Grapevine Nursery Adds ATI Greenhouse to Meet Growing Demand

By working with California’s best commercial greenhouse manufacturer, Guillaume Grapevine Nursery is set up for ongoing success. Nursery Manager Simon Delbos reported that his ATI greenhouse is ready to perform at a high-level starting next year, he said. “The plan is to grow 150,000 wine grapevines in each turn, with potentially three turns every year depending on our orders.”
Growing grapevines is a precise science and quality control is paramount. A typical day working in the greenhouse at the nursery involves either planting grapevines in small pots within the greenhouse, or sorting pots in order to select the best grapevines available after they have been growing for two weeks, Delbos explained.
