Shengzhou is one of the main production areas of flowers and trees in Zhejiang. Since summer, most seedlings have maintained a good sales momentum. Among them, the most popular ones are medium and large specifications tree and Flowering shrub For example, exquisite osmanthus with a crown width of 3 to 4.5 meters, Lechang Michelia with a diameter of 10 to 15 cm at breast height, and tall dry red leaf heather with a diameter of 6 to 12 cm at breast height. This kind of seedlings are generally of good quality and high standardization. Compared with similar seedlings in other regions, their prices are generally 5% to 10% lower, so they are favored by the market.
The prices of local main varieties such as Magnolia grandiflora, red maple and maple with chicken feet are also generally rising and selling well. Because the local greening project in Shengzhou is not large, most of the seedlings are exported, and such seedlings are mainly sold to other cities in Zhejiang, Shandong, Anhui, Jiangsu and other places.
This year's flower shrub seedlings also maintained a strong sales trend, including crape myrtle, cherry blossom, red maple, purple leaf plum, etc. In the first half of the year, about 100 million seedlings were sold out, and some varieties were even in short supply. In terms of price, it rose about 50% from the low point of seedlings in the second half of last year, but was lower than the price in the first half of last year. For example, annual crape myrtle seedlings sold for about 1.5 yuan each in March, about 1 yuan in the second half of last year, and the average price in the first half of last year was about 2.5 yuan. It is expected that there will be good sales of such seedlings in the second half of the year, and the price will remain stable.
The fast-growing cherry is another popular variety in Shengzhou in recent years. Its diameter at breast height can be increased by 3 cm to 5 cm a year, and it has good ornamental properties, quick out of the nursery, and can improve the economic benefits per unit area. It is generally favored by local seedling growers** In recent one or two years, the number of fast-growing cherry trees planted in Shengzhou has increased rapidly, and the diameter at breast height of 5cm to 6cm can be used for Landscape engineering Medium. At present, the fast-growing cherry trees in Shengzhou * * have reached a diameter of 15 cm to 16 cm at breast height.
Another variety of fast-growing crape myrtle is also very optimistic because of the vigorous promotion of some seedling enterprises in recent years. Due to the increase in the number of seedlings, the price has declined compared with the same period last year. As more and more nursery growers are optimistic about the economic benefits of fast-growing varieties, the planting area of fast-growing cherry blossoms, fast-growing crape myrtle and other plants has continued to increase. Seen from the current situation, the products with poor quality and oversupply are mainly difficult to sell in the market, such as some osmanthus with poor quality.
In recent years, the area of seedlings planted in Shengzhou has increased slightly every year, but the number of seedlings planted has not increased too much, which is due to the continuous improvement of local Miao farmers' awareness of producing high-quality products. Most nurseries are carrying out structural adjustment to reduce the planting density of seedlings. At the same time, they are also working hard to strengthen the management of nurseries, improve the quality of seedlings, and make the growth of seedlings from quantity to quality. It is expected that most of the seedlings in Shengzhou will still maintain a good market in the second half of the year.
