There have been great successes recorded with garlic based natural products and further opportunities for horticulture to improve its green credentials lie ahead, especially in the production of edible crops including soft and top fruit, protected salads and field vegetables.

At Aston Horticulture we offer a wide range of garlic products for specific and general use for those in commercial horticulture.

Growers must adhere to the protocols that have been developed for success with our products - this is not a quick approach cure but rather a more prophylactic approach. Prevention of fungal and insect attack is the key to maintaining productive plant growth and appearance, providing the end consumer with healthy edible crops and good environmental credentials.

Use of garlic in conjunction with integrated biological crop management leads to a much reduced reliance on conventional pesticides, with benefits of reduction or elimination of pesticide residues in the resultant food.

We are now expanding into ornamentals including the nursery stock, roses, amenity and turf management sectors.

If growers are prepared to move forward, we can help them through the changes necessary for the garlic approach to become beneficial and successful in this commercial and public sector of UK horticulture.
