In experimental trials conducted on gravel beds in Hampshire, UK, during 1990, the loss of 2 herbicides (oxadiazon applied at 0.4 g/msuperscript 2 after potting and simazine at 0.11 g), a fungicide (furalaxyl at 4.27 g) and an insecticide (fonofos at 3.7 g) from a peat-based growing medium for HONS (namely Chamaecyparis lawsoniana Columnaris glauca and Cupressocyparis leylandii) was evaluated.
