Plant feeds and lawncare dominate sales
 
As plant sales and growing media sales accelerate it’s no surprise to see garden product sales also hit new heights with core gardening products leading the way.

Plant feeds and lawncare dominate with 10 of the Top 20, plus garden cleaning and pest control lines.

Garden lighting sales are on a par with last year, but positioned lower in the chart because of the uplift of core gardening sales.

Scotts Evergreen Complete Spreader Pack 100 sq m is the highest re-entry, and Town & Country Ladies Gloves 3 Pack Coral, Yellow, Sea Green the highest new entry.

Scotts Levington Tomorite moves to top spot.
