Raker-Roberta's Trial Gardens

Raker-Roberta's Young Plants is pleased to present the Raker-Roberta's Trial Gardens. We invite everyone to visit us and participate in this valuable event.

Our Trial Gardens offer visibility and insight into plants and flowers currently on the market – and also for items not yet available! The best of the best, the newest of the new… we guarantee you will see something you have not seen before. The Trial Gardens occupy more than nine acres of grounds at the Raker-Roberta's facility, and are divided into row, hanging basket, and large container trials

. We measure, grade, and record each of the 3,200+ varieties weekly. The information gathered from the Trials is a priceless resource not only for Raker-Roberta's and our partners in the horticulture industry, but also for anyone interested in specific plants. In addition to our Trials, we dedicate ample space to our popular Sponsor Beds. The large, raised Sponsor Beds provide a venue for the horticulture industry’s newest plant and flower varieties from around the world!
