Slated for week 45, between November 6th and 9th, the event is set to unravel at the newly revamped MNP / Suntory R&D and selection center in Leimuiderbrug, Netherlands.
MNP / Suntory has created an innovative concept of a trade fair where you can find products, inspiration, and room for developing new businesses. Are you ready to feel, experience, and select what is super hot from breeding? Then get ahead and don't stay behind.
Future Plant Trends 2023 will unfurl a series of new and exclusive floral varieties, coupled with unique POS materials and ideas. This year also brings with it an emphasis on fostering new business partnerships, and opening avenues for sample trials for growers and propagators.

Both venues are so close by! A brief 15-minute drive will get you to the MNP / Suntory event.
A Glimpse Back in Time
Last year, the inaugural Future Plant Trends show was a resounding success. It served as a launching pad for the Sundaville® Double Blush Pink variety. This new variety has been a real game-changer in the floricultural world. Marketing Communications Manager Francesca Lanzillotta said:
"Future Plant Trends allowed us to test the market with peers, growers, retailers, and floriculture enthusiasts. The outcome was positive, as evidenced by the Sundaville® Double Blush Pink's victory in the FleuroStar Award last June and the recent Houseplant Award at the Four Oaks Trade Show in the UK. Additionally, the Sundaville® Double Blush Pink is one of the finalists for the Glazen Tulp Award 2023 at the Trade Fair Aalsmeer - where you can still vote for if you want it to win as well. We might have another double winner; you don't want to miss it this year."
What is it like to be a pioneer at MNP / Suntory? That is the question that Francesca Lanzillotta will answer in this 1-minute portrait video from her own perspective:
