Plants recover...but only slowly
With one decent day last week, on the Sunday, plant sales moved back up again but were still 27% down on the same week last year.
That was Mother’s Day weekend in 2017 which would account for the very big variance in Orchid and Rose sales.
The cold weather is still having a big effect with young Tomato plant sales down by 15%.
- Primula remain the No 1 Bestselling Spring plant. Let’s hope they continue to sell through in volumes before they start to die off.
- Campanula climbed the most places up the chart this week – up 21 places to No 14.
- All Plants volume sales change: Week on week UP 41.9%. Year to date DOWN 17.8% on 2017.
