Another good week of plant sales and we’ll be back into positive territory by the end of the month.
At just 2.5% down after last week and with excellent half term weather most garden centres are expecting a busy weekend for plant sales before the children go back to school.
Primula sales doubled prior to half term and are set to grow again during half term.
Bellis plants were the highest re-entry into the GTN Top 50, back in at No 23.
Pre planted Crocus were the highest chart climber as gardeners grabbed the chance to add instant colour on their patios and balconies.
All Plants volume sales change: Week on week UP 83.3%. Year to date vs 2018 DOWN 2.1%, vs 2017 UP 22.4%.
