Dobbies marks first day of spring with largest ever spring gardening range

 

Dobbies Garden Centres kicked off the season in full bloom by unveiling over 1,600 new gardening products; its largest ever spring gardening range.


More than 100 varieties of colourful spring bedding plants are now available to shop in Dobbies stores, including primroses, pansies, violas senetti and marguerites, along with around 20 new lawncare products, 300 new seed varieties and 72 new landscaping products. The garden centre is also adding 40 gardening tools, 22 composts and 22 garden power tools to its offering to cater to customers’ garden living needs.

 

With some favourable weather across the UK, Dobbies is seeing a strong start to the season, with demand for gardening products on the rise compared to this time last year. Lawncare is on gardeners’ minds, with Dobbies reporting a significant surge in lawn mower sales as customers begin the new gardening season.

 

Across March so far, Dobbies has also seen sales grow by over 50% across many plants, bulbs, seeds and gardening product categories, in comparison to last year.

 

Speaking about the new spring launch, Dobbies’ Plant Buyer, Nigel Lawton said: “We’re excited to be unveiling our largest ever range of spring products to help gardeners get set for spring and inspire them to enjoy the benefits of garden living.

 

“Whether you’re looking to improve your lawn, plant for colour, or invest in new tools, Dobbies is a one-stop-shop for all your gardening needs, and the helpful Green Team will be on-hand to help you find the right product for your garden.

 

“The early demand for gardening products shows that people are excited to spend time in their outdoor spaces this spring, and we can’t wait to help them grow!”
