Garden activity drives business in centres
 

The Indian Summer has helped to keep gardeners busier for longer, and all the late season activity has helped to drive sales of garden products throughout the UK.

The evidence can be found at the top of the GTN Bestsellers Garden Products chart with the re-appearance of Solus Yeoman Professional Bypass Secateurs, which have knocked Fito Drip Feeder for Orchids off top spot.

Solus have also seen sales of their new product – Yeoman Garden Secateurs & Turbo Saw – soar this week, allowing it to make its first appearance in the Top 50.

Other new entries include four items from Woodlodge – Sutton Pot Nos 2, 3 and 4, and Glazed Saucer.

In the warm weather of late, garden bugs are still a cause for concern, allowing Bayer Provado Ultimate Bug Killer Ready to Use to become the highest climber, moving up 27 places to No 21.

It’s also interesting to see that garden lighting is still proving popular with buyers – the Gardman Post Light, Stainless Steel has re-entered the Top 50 after increasing sales by 100%.
