Plants are the gift of Christmas
 
Another week of increased plant sales shows the importance of great plants and great plant displays.

Customers may not have been able to buy some Christmas products because they’ve sold out, but they have certainly bought high volumes of plants to use for their own decoration or to give as gifts.
  • Roses bought as gifts saw a near 500% increase to move up to No 7.
  • Poinsettia hold on to the No 1 spot, just ahead of Cyclamen.
  • Beech hedging sales see Fagus as a new entry at No 22.
