RHS endorses environmentally friendly watering systems from AutoPot

AutoPot has announced that its wide range of our automatic plant watering systems has attained Royal Horticultural Society (RHS) Endorsed status.

 

We at AutoPot are immensely proud that the RHS identified with our ethos when considering our systems for their prestigious recognition. For us, the words of Cathy Snow, RHS Licensing Manager, represent a validation of our central focus on horticultural sustainability and accessibility. 

 

“These systems are not only good for the environment but cost-saving and highly efficient – big pluses for both gardeners and the RHS. They also support making gardening accessible to all, whether in a greenhouse or on a patio, balcony or allotment. All of which adds up to a wonderful growing and sustainability story that we are delighted to support.”

 

Connecting with established and aspiring gardeners has always been a priority for AutoPot. As a producer of power-free, zero-waste irrigation systems, we have long been keen to communicate the ecological and lifestyle benefits of our approach to plant care. Having an endorsement from such a trusted, go-to authority as the RHS will help us immeasurably in achieving these aims.

 

Our staff and our family of growers have done a superb job of conveying the potential of our watering systems in a clear yet evocative way. In many ways the RHS’ recognition is also an endorsement of their skill and dedication. For that we’d like to offer our profuse thanks.

 

This partnership aims to leverage AutoPot's expertise in sustainable gardening solutions, in turn supporting and enhancing the RHS’s own aims, such as promoting water conservation, sustainable practices, and greater opportunities to get growing for gardeners.

 

The products are available now at a wide range of outlets. AutoPot has a network of around 40 garden centres of mixed sizes across the UK. It also partners wholesalers operating out of multiple countries throughout Europe and worldwide.

 

The RHS logo and endorsement will be highlighted on packaging, online and on PoS material over the coming months, when demand from gardeners starts to ramp up ahead of the spring planting period.
