A couple of factors may be conspiring to keep you out of the MEMBERS ONLY areas of our website.


  1. Re–check that you are entering the correct username and password.

  2. Does your browser accept cookies? cookies are small pieces of code sent from a web server to be stored on your computer. When you log into the MEMBERS ONLY Zone, our server sends a cookie to your browser to help it identify you as you move through the study room. If your browser has been told (by you or the person who set up your computer) not to accept cookies, then our server's cookie will not be accepted, and as a consequence, our server will not let you into the MEMBERS ONLY Zone (even if you are entering the correct login information!). The only solution is for you to allow your browser to accept our server's cookie.

The New Zealand Flower Exporters' Association has released an updated handbook “Growers' Guide to the New Zealand Flower Industry” for those considering growing flowers for commercial markets. It encourages growers to think about such issues as location and environment, and covers choosing what to grow, growing, harvesting and selling, budgets and government regulations. The guide also provides a glossary of common horticultural terms and a list of industry contacts, and will be beneficial for those looking at entering the industry.
