Plant Development Services, Inc. (PDSI), was organized in 1996 for the purpose of research, development and the marketing of new innovative landscape plants. PDSI focuses on discovery, evaluation and production of new clones that are superior in horticultural qualities to current ones in our industry. Some superior horticultural traits that PDSI looks for are disease and insect resistance, heat and cold tolerance, superior foliage, form, or flower, ease of propagation and cultivation, and marketability. All new ornamental plant introductions orginate from small producers, private breeders, or from our own research. PDSI offers new plant discoveries a place and method of evaluation, legal protection services, production and marketing. Our method of evaluation includes propagation and cultivation and can take varying lengths of time to complete. On an average, it can take 3 to 5 years of evaluation before final selections are made. Once we have a high confidence level on a particular variety we enter them into university trials. We also offer public gardens these new plants for public exposure and evaluation. This has given us valuable feedback on the performance of these new cultivars in different areas of the country. This exposure has also turned into promotion. As people notice these new plants established and performing well in landscapes, they become confident to try the plants on their own, often talking about them and sometimes writing about them. If a plant is patented, the patent belongs to the breeder and typically PDSI is the managing partner making decisions on royalties, promotion, production, and licensing. Royalties fund our program and are paid on a per plant basis, not per size.
