SylvaGrow Tub & Basket recognised as Which? Best Buy

Melcourt SylvaGrow Tub & Basket has been recognised as a Which? Best Buy. This marks the 23rd time a Melcourt product has received this independent endorsement, reaffirming the company’s commitment to sustainability, product excellence, and professional-grade results.

 

Which? is the UK’s consumer champion, a not-for-profit organisation that tests thousands of products each year to help consumers make informed decisions. A Which? Best Buy is only awarded to products that meet high standards of quality and performance following rigorous testing.

 

Designed specifically for hanging baskets, tubs, and containers, and based on a blend of fine bark, wood fibre and coir used widely throughout the UK, SylvaGrow Tub & Basket is a high performance, 100% peat-free growing medium that offers:

  • Outstanding water retention to keep plants thriving.
  • Long-lasting nutrient supply for vibrant, healthy growth for the first 4-6 weeks
  • Responsibly sourced materials, making it an eco-friendly choice
  • A blend that’s perfect for bedding plants, herbs, tomatoes, strawberries, peppers and other fruits.

Having already been endorsed by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) and audited by the Responsible Sourcing Scheme, this Which? Best Buy endorsement further enhances the reputation of this unique blend.

 

Nikki Burton, Managing Director at Melcourt, said: "As pioneers of peat-free horticulture, we’ve spent more than four decades refining our products to ensure they outperform traditional alternatives. Receiving a Which? Best Buy endorsement for the 23rd time further reinforces our dedication to providing gardeners and professionals with high-quality, sustainable growing media."

 

Gardeners should look out for the Which? Best Buy sticker on SylvaGrow Tub & Basket point of sale displays in garden centres and stockists across the UK – https://melcourt.co.uk/where-to-buy/
