Have you forgotten to order your Garden Mums or Asters? Do you have last minute Garden Mum/Aster requirements? Let Raker help.

Raker will have planned Garden Mum and Aster availability the whole month of June (week 23 thru 26). We are planning to have generous quantities of the most popular Garden Mum and Aster varieties in our standard 51 strip liners. We’ll have both Syngenta Flowers and Gro Link varieties available.

Our brand new Triple Stuck Combination liners will also be featured each week. If you have not ordered Triple Stuck liners yet, now is the time to give them a try. Everyone is talking about this great new concept for large Mum and Aster containers.

Raker is your one stop Garden Mum/Aster source. Check out the following Grower benefits:

• Selection – Raker offers 219 Garden Mum varieties and 18 Asters for the 2012 season. We feature the full listing of varieties from both Gro Link and Syngenta Flowers (Yoder).
• Bundled price – You’ll get an up front, accurate, all inclusive price from Raker. Our price includes handling, boxing, shipping and any other fees associated with your order.
• Quality – Raker Garden Mum and Aster liners are fully vegetative and are grown under long days to prevent crown budding. Soft, vegetative cuttings are vital to “no pinch” production regimes. We also treat all Garden Mum liners with a White Rust preventative
• Multiple tray sizes - Raker offers three liner sizes to provide options for both large and small growers. In addition to our 51 count strip tray (25mm ellepot), we offer a 160 High Density (HD) tray. The 160 HD tray provides large plugs grown in a dense configuration. Our brand new Triple Stuck Combination liners are available in convenient 36 count strip trays (30mm ellepot).
• Tags – Raker stocks tags for each and every variety we offer. Order tags from Raker and we match the tag count to the liner count (e.g. order 51 strip tray and receive 51 tags). We ship tags with plants, so you also save on tag delivery charges.
• Door to Door Delivery – From our Greenhouse to yours, Raker Garden Mum/Aster liners arrive on your doorstep, on time and intact.
