Christmas displays are a hit during school break
 

Christmas displays are certainly a main driver of visits to garden centres at the moment, and it certainly was the case during the recent school break.

Personalised products continue to be popular with the most notable entry being the Suki Personalised Reindeer Tree Ornament, a newcomer to the Bestsellers Christmas Products chart.

At the very top of the chart History & Heraldry continue to dominate with six of the top seven products, headed by Christmas Money Box, Carousel Charms and Personalised Christmas Door Hanger at Nos 1, 2 and 3 respectively.

The highest re-entry is Kaemingk Rose on Clip (Red) at No 16, and there are five other colours of this product in the Top 50.

The Williams Snowman Ball (5cm) takes the highest climber accolade, moving up 25 places to No 20. Other notable new entries are the American Paper Optics Christmas Glasses.
