Europlants Spring Open Days wow customers with inspirational plants



The Europlants Spring Open Days have been hailed a great success after customers from all parts of the UK were wowed with a fantastic array of plants on Wednesday and Thursday.

Ronato Canale, of Europlants, said: "We are delighted with the response and a tremendous amount of business was done over the two days.

"Confidence has returned to the industry, and our customers seem to be in a very optimistic mood. It has been a real success."

Inspirational plants and outstanding offers were the order of the day at the Europlants site near Hatfield in Hertfordshire. A great atmosphere was guaranteed and visitors were treated to a delicious Italian lunch.

TV gardener David Domoney was present on both days, and as well as presiding over the raffle draw he auctioned off an impressive list of goodies. As a result an amazing £2,400 was raised for Thrive, the charity that enables positive change in the lives of disabled and disadvantaged people through the use of gardening.

To give you a flavour of the Open Days here's a gallery of pictures...
