Genuine Plants: The Nursery’s Promise

What sets this nursery apart is its commitment to providing genuine plants. Founded by Dr. Hemant, an alumnus of the Pusa Institute, the nursery collaborates with renowned agricultural institutions like the Pusa Institute and IHAR Bangalore. They carefully develop plant varieties by grafting scions onto rootstocks, ensuring each plant’s authenticity. This is especially important for fruit plants, as it can take years to see the results. Imagine waiting four years only to find out your Langda mango is a different local variety!
