8、b Trade Association. It is hoped that this standard will reduce any misunderstandings that may arise when nursery stock is bought and sold. It is not intended to be a precise botanical specification. This Part of this standard specifies requirements for what are usually described as “container-grown

9、 herbs”, i.e.herbs grown in the container in which they are to be sold. Herbs not so grown are included in BS3936 “Nursery stock”, Part7:1989 “Specification for bedding plants”. The dimensional requirements are based on the growth characteristics of UK-grown plants. Plants grown elsewhere may have d

10、ifferent characteristics and therefore, for the protection of buyers, this standard requires the supplier to state whether or not the plants offered for sale are UK-grown. A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a contract. Users of British Standards are respon

11、sible for their correct application. Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity from legal obligations. Summary of pages This document comprises a front cover, an inside front cover, pagesi andii, pages1 and2 and a back cover. This standard has been updated (see copyright

12、date) and may have had amendments incorporated. This will be indicated in the amendment table on theinside front cover.BS3936-11:1984 BSI 06-1999 1 1 Scope This Part of BS3936 specifies requirements for the root system, condition, dimensions and packaging of herbs most widely grown and used in the U

29、OTE 3Chives should have a much larger root growth in comparison to total height than is the case with the majority of other herbs listed. NOTE 4Horseradish should have a substantial root system plus a viable crown. When transplanted, the plant grows so quickly that a minimum plant size is not specif

30、ied. NOTE 5Because the growth pattern in pots of French marjoram, oregano, pot marjoram and sweet Cecily is unpredictable, depending on the prevailing weather conditions, no specific minimum sizes are specified. In general, the plants should spread sufficiently to cover the pot but in some cases pla

31、nts grow up rather than out. When transplanted, the plants should exhibit vigorous growth. a Oregano is a flavour, but the plant is usually sold as oregano.blankBS3936-11: 1984 BSI 389 Chiswick High Road London W4 4AL BSIBritishStandardsInstitution BSI is the independent national body responsible fo
