Florel Growth Regulator gallon (128 oz)

Florel Brand Growth Regulator is a professional-grade plant growth regulator formulated with ethephon to manage ornamental growth, eliminate nuisance fruit, promote branching, and control mistletoe in greenhouse, nursery, and landscape settings. Once absorbed by the plant, Florel releases ethylene, a naturally occurring plant hormone that regulates growth and developmental processes. Widely trusted by professional growers and arborists, Florel is used to suppress unwanted fruit production on ornamental trees such as crabapple, sweetgum, olive, sycamore, and other landscape ornamentals. It is also highly effective for controlling dwarf mistletoe in conifers and leafy mistletoe in deciduous trees while promoting fuller, more compact ornamental growth through improved lateral branching. Florel is additionally used in greenhouse production to reduce stem elongation, improve plant form, induce flowering in bromeliads, and manage height in ornamental crops such as potted daffodils and hyacinths. Proper timing, environmental conditions, and plant health are critical for successful applications and minimizing plant stress.
