Every so often, you might see a Fleuroselect gold medal or quality mark in a catalogue or online- but what exactly is it? Michael has a brilliant chat with the Secretary General of the Fleuroselect, Ann Jennen. He discovers the role of the trials process, how it works, and what other projects are run at industry level in order to help the consumer. It’s a really really good chat!   Sponsors of series 13 are Lava-Lite  - Naturally The Best   Effortlessly nourish and protect your plants with a collection of totally non-toxic, environmentally friendly, sustainable, pH neutral, lightweight and 100% natural products.   Derived from volcanic deposits, LAVA-LITE was formed by nature over 10,000 years ago.   The collection is made up of eight different horticultural growing/potting media and pest control products, with each continually offering the same natural benefits: thermal protection, moisture retention and control, soil conditioning and providing a nutrient boost; as well as being completely child, pet and environmentally safe.   LAVA-LITE is chemically inert, zero-harm and does not kill pests. It acts as a natural barrier and deterrent, providing an opportunity for them to simply move on.   All the products can be used anywhere in the home and garden without worry and any predators eating prey that have come in to contact with LAVA-LITE will not be harmed, keeping eco-systems balanced, maintained and sustainable.   The LAVA-LITE collection is available in handy 1 litre and 3 litre resealable pouches. They are easy to use, provide great results and don’t require careful handling, making them perfect for the novice gardener and specialist grower.   Learn more at www.lava-lite.co.uk
