Allensmore expands Blooms branded plants range

Herefordshire nursery Allensmore has expanded its range of perennials in unique Blooms of Bressingham branded pots, following the new partnership with Blooms of Bressingham Plants announced during the summer.

Supported by a comprehensive POS package, each variety is a proven best-seller promising value for money and top garden performance.

For 2016, the range includes a number of completely new Blooms introductions in distinctive 4.5-litre blue pots carrying the Blooms of Bressingham logo in silver. Also new for 2016 are Blooms-branded 2-litre products to create opportunities for early season sales.

Blooms director Adrian Bloom visited Allensmore’s production and despatch sites in Herefordshire in September. Together with his son Jason, he toured the enlarged production facilities at Allensmore’s new 40-acre site at Madley, which includes new state-of-the art exterior under-bed irrigation, a new three-acre glasshouse complex and the despatch facility for Italian and Mediterranean plant ranges.
