Weeding, planting and pruning means it's all change at the top
 
It’s all change at the top of the GTN Bestsellers Garden Products Top 50 this week as gardeners get really active in their gardens and the power of TV advertising kicks in.

Scotts Roundup Weedkiller Gel takes over as the No 1 garden centre bestselling garden product with the Powergrip Trowel from Fiskars and a pair of Classic Anvil Secateurs from Gardman taking the No 2 and 3 spots.  

Tomato feed is still selling extremely well with Westland’s Gro-Sure Tomato Food joining Tomorite in the top 10.

The Gro-Sure Tomato Food is just one of 10 Westland products in the Top 50 this week coinciding with the “There’s life in the Westland” TV campaign.

The innovation of ready to sow border mixes of seed, compost and feed appears to have been well received by garden centre customers, after 6 weeks in the Top 50 for Scotts Miracle-Gro Flower Magic it’s now the turn for Westland’s Easy Flowers to grace the chart with the Bright Mix at No 17 and the Pastel Mix at No 43.



Hanging baskets and container gardening is in full swing too. Gardman’s 40cm Coco liner was the weeks highest chart climber and two Wolf Pots from Woodlodge (above) saw huge sales increases last week to enter the chart at Nos 35 and 44.
