Summer
Showstoppers
While this year's event did not take place during its traditional spring
timeframe, 2021 CAST attendees were able to enjoy time in the sun and
observe new plant introductions during the peak of summer.

fter taking a brief hiatus in 2020, CAST returned
in 2021 with a later summer date. With so much
uncertainty surrounding how events could take place,
the summer date seemed to be the safest option this year.
While most participating exhibitors scaled back a bit due
to this uncertainty, the late June temperatures in California
provided an opportunity to see how all the new varieties
performed once more established into the summer.
Despite everything going on in the world right now,
breeders have been hard at work - and it shows.
Hundreds of new varieties made their official debut this
summer, and here are some that we cannot wait to see at
retail in 2022!
ANNUALS
1. Petunia 'Blanket Silver Surprise'
Green Fuse Botanicals
Silver Surprise is a super novel addition to the Blanket
series of milliflora-type petunias. One plant will exhibit
flowers of white, silver, lavender, purple and pink - even
half and half on the same flower. The entire series has
incredible landscape power and heat tolerance.
2. Calibrachoa Rainbow Dümmen Orange
Rainbow is a new series of calibrachoa offering a
color-changing effect. They offer a classic Aloha habit and
perform well in larger baskets. Plants exhibit incredible
heat tolerance, presenting a long-lasting and unique look
in the garden.

3. Begonia Viking Explorer Sakata
Viking and Viking XL were recent introductions for
landscape and container applications. The new Viking
Explorer series is intended for hanging baskets with
its trailing habit. Two colors are currently available
(Red on Green is pictured), and they flower earlier than
comparable varieties with more flowers at first flush.
