Pelargoniums hold the bestselling plant spot
The second week of the GTN Bestsellers Garden Plants chart has Pelargoniums increasing sales volumes by 61% to hold on to the title of No1 Bestselling Garden Plant in garden centres.

The GTN Bestsellers Garden Plant chart is compiled by grouping together all sales lines that can be identified by genus from the EPoS data supplied to GTN each week.

For explanation, Pelargoniums include plants with garden centre descriptions: Regal Pelargoniums, Zonal Geraniums, Ivy Leaf Geraniums and F1 Geraniums in all sizes from plugs through to 1 litre pots. The genus Geranium, hardy geraniums, is separate from Pelargoniums and this week would be ranked 100 out of all genus if we had room to publish a much longer plants chart.

Over the coming weeks we will watch and report on any changes and take on board any further input that can make this information really useful.  Please send your comments to: trevor.pfeiffer@tgcmc.co.uk
