We are loving early spring sales according to EPOS data analysis by GTN Bestsellers. Six weeks into the year, total sales volumes are running at almost 11% up on last year and plant sales are racing ahead at 43%.

Planted bulbs are selling extremely well along with the instant colour hits of Primula and Hellebores. 

As we saw at GCA Award winning Bents Garden & Home this week covered planterias are looking really attractive at the moment, no wonder customers and garden centre tills are Loving Spring.
