Trees and shrubs give light to Black Friday

Trees and winter shrubs were the new movers in the GTN Bestsellers Plants chart last week. There were a record 16 new/re-entries in the Top 50 as total plant sales dropped by over 30% during Black Friday week.

 

Winter bedding Pansy and Primula sales plummeted by 60%.  Is that a blip or a trend?


Highlights of the week were:

  • Ajuga were the highest placed re-entry, back in at No 15.
  • Prunus trees were the highest chart climber, up 27 places to No 20
  • Malus trees debuted in the Top 50 at No 32.
  • All Plants volume sales change: Week on week DOWN 31.5%.  Year to date UP 7.6% on 2017
