Winds of change for garden products
 

The wind was responsible for several increased garden product sales perfoirmances last week.  Sales of tree stakes rocketed and a colour changing wind spinner was a highly placed new entry. 


Meanwhile, sheltering from the wind, indoor sales of cover pots and feed for Christmas housplants rose in line with festive plant sales.


The week’s highlights were:

  • The Woodlodge 6 Foot Tree Stake and Grange’s 2.4m Tree Pole were re-entries at No 10 and No 25 respectively.
  • Gardman’s Colour Changing Spiral Wind Spinner was a new entry at No 24.
  • Scheurich 15cm Dark Red Cover Pots moved up the chart 26 places to No 2.
