Fruit tree landscaping nursery stock sales market is increasingly hot

This year fruit tree landscaping saplings are selling really well. A few days ago I still moved 15,000 cherry saplings." said Zhang Jiachao, a veteran nursery stock broker in Daxinzhuang Town, Dingzhou City. After the start of spring, he took quite a few orders for purchasing fruit tree landscaping nursery stock.

The reporter learned that this spring in the central Hebei area, the sales of cherry, hawthorn, persimmon and jujube trees were all very good. Li Hui, a veteran nursery stock broker in Gu'an County, said that in just one spring he sold nearly ten thousand persimmon trees, and the locally available persimmon trees suitable for projects had already sold out, so he could only go to the Taihang Mountain area to source them. Wang Wubao, a nursery stock broker in Qingyuan, said that in one spring he moved more than 5,000 hawthorn trees, mainly sold to Beijing, Tianjin, Tangshan and other places.

Then what is the reason that fruit tree landscaping nursery stock is still selling so well during the low period of the nursery stock market? Chang Guohui, a veteran nursery stock broker in Gaocheng City, said that in recent years, as the country has attached greater importance to landscape greening construction, and as beautiful countryside construction has accelerated, the standards for landscape greening have become higher and higher, requiring not only evergreen throughout the four seasons, but also flowers in spring, shade in summer and fruit in autumn. As relatively extensively managed nursery stock, cherry, hawthorn and persimmon are undoubtedly key tree species. Judging from the current situation, the sales momentum of fruit tree landscaping nursery stock is getting stronger and stronger, and nursery stock that requires more careful management, such as pear and apple, has also entered people's field of vision. Zheng Zhanbin, a veteran nursery stock broker in Anguo, believes that the hot sales of fruit tree landscaping nursery stock are only the beginning, and next, as some places strengthen economic forest construction, the demand for fruit tree landscaping nursery stock will increase further. "Hebei Province has already started this project, and this is a good thing that serves two purposes at once. It not only improves the landscape effect, but also brings considerable economic benefits. Therefore, I think the future prospects for fruit tree landscaping nursery stock are very good," said Zheng Zhanbin.

Regarding the future market for fruit tree landscaping nursery stock, several brokers are uniformly optimistic. Zhang Jiachao believes that fruit tree landscaping nursery stock grows relatively slowly and has a long nursery-out cycle, and has already shown a situation of supply falling short of demand. Judging from the current market, this year the prices of persimmon and cherry have both risen considerably compared with last year. It is expected that next year's market will be even better. Zheng Zhanbin said: "The road for fruit tree landscaping nursery stock is still long, and its development momentum is also very strong. Now the selection of landscape greening nursery stock has already begun to diversify. For example, cherry is mainly used for villa areas and high-end residential areas, while persimmon trees are mostly used as landscape street trees, and walnut also has a very good effect as a street tree. These are all successful cases. I suggest that people might as well step out of the traditional routine and appropriately plant some fruit tree landscaping nursery stock. This nursery stock can be called 'amphibious': it works as an economic forest, and it is also no problem as landscaping nursery stock, with large market space, strong development momentum and good economic benefits."

Chen Duanfen, a professor at the College of Horticulture of Hebei Agricultural University, believes that the hot sales of fruit tree landscaping nursery stock are good news and a sign of progress in landscape greening construction. Many places abroad are applying fruit tree nursery stock as landscape tree species, and the effects are all very good. "In addition to viewing the fruit, many varieties of fruit tree nursery stock also have highly ornamental tree shapes and flowers. When fruit tree nursery stock enters the city, it not only enriches the landscape, but also adds a touch of wild charm to the city, giving people a sense of harvest and a sense of return," said Chen Duanfen. Compared with other landscaping nursery stock, fruit trees are relatively more complex to manage and have more pests and diseases, so when they are used in landscape greening, varieties with strong resistance, few pests and diseases, and high ornamental value should be selected.
