Over the first three months the amount of registrations was 538 in 2008 and 557 in 2009. This year only 518 products were registered. The upward tendency during the past few years has stopped. In 2010 less cut flowers and flowering house plants but more leaf plants and garden plants have been registered. From now on arboricultural crops and other garden plants like annuals will be differentiated.

Where the number of registrations stayed 50 products behind during the first month of the second quarter in relation to the prognoses, in the other two months the score was 170 more. Little cutflowers in April and many garden plants in May and flowering potplants in June unbalance the numbers. Most striking in the month of June is the high number of Decoration products. Christmas green traded in bulk is now also required with a name and article code. This is not specifically for auctioning, but as to offer it in Webshops.
Perennials are also popular. There have been years, where Petunia was in the fashion. After that came Calibrachoa and Ostospermum. This year Argyranthemum is in the picture.
