Poppy bird feeders - garden decoration or wild bird care?
 
Are these poppy bird feeders from Gardman items of garden decoration or wild bird care products?

They are certainly selling well, as we reported from St Peter’s in Worcester a few weeks ago.

If they were categorised as a garden decoration line then they would have been at No 40 in the GTN Bestsellers Garden Products chart, selling similar volumes as GreenWash watering cans and orchid pots from Growth Tenhnology.

In terms of wild bird care products they were the 30th highest selling line in the GTN Bestsellers Epos data, just above packs of 20 Scotts Chapelwood Suet Balls with 50% extra.

What is your view: are these being bought for garden decoration or as a wild bird care item? Please let us know views by emailing trevor.pfeiffer@tgcmc.co.uk
