Imagine the possibilities – a lush green lawn that requires no water, a towering shade tree free from everyday disease problems, or a landscape dotted with vibrant pops of color from annual flowers that grow with minimal care. For 55 years, these are the kinds of horticultural projects that the John C. Pair Horticultural Research Center in Haysville, KS has been studying. Testing a wide range of plants — from trees and shrubs to turfgrass, fruits, vegetables, and even industrial hemp — their research helps identify and develop the best performing plants for Kansas.
