Garden centre car parks and tills busy this weekend

Garden centre sales certainly got growing this last weekend, judging by the business of Longacres Bagshot on Saturday afternoon.

 

There were plenty of trollies full of plants and pots going through the tills, with customers either buying for a single project or just filling their trollies with early sales of bedding plants and bigger statement plants.

 

At a guess the average value of trollies going through the tills on Saturday afternoon was around £200.
