Plant sales did increase by 30% during the second week of January, and so were at the second lowest weekly sales level we’ve ever reported in GTN Bestsellers. That is of course apart from the seven weeks last year when garden centres were closed during lockdown #1.
Primula sales jumped by 75% week on week as those who did venture out bought some instant sporing colour.
Asparagus plants were the highest re-entry to the GTN Top 50 at No 21.
Chlorophytum, Spider Plants, were a big moving houseplant, climbing 21 places up the chart to No 17.
