Tomato feed leads the way

The volume sales of the Top 50 Garden Products, that’s excluding Growing Media, in the GTN Bestsellers garden centre Epos data grew by 6% week on week during the first week of May but remained below 2019 levels for the second consecutive week.

Plant feeds are selling well but there is a distinct lack of bestselling garden lighting in the chart at the moment and fewer pot lines.

Highlights of the week were:

Evergreen Garden Care Levington Tomorite 1L + 30% Free stays at No 1 with Westland’s Big Tom Concentrated Tomato Food 1.9L moving up two places to No 7.
The highest placed pot line this week is Smart Garden’s Fence & Balcony Hanging Pot, a re-entry at No 20.
Westland Gro-Sure Natural Power Bug Stop Ready To Use 800ml is a new entry at No 44.
