Shining the light on a brighter tomorrow
 
Solar lights are a popular item with consumers at the moment with three products in the Top 10 of the current GTN Bestsellers Garden Products chart.

Gardman Solar Spot Lights is at No 2 in the chart. The other two items are Gardman Ice Orb Solar Light (No 3) and Kaemingk LED Solar Stainless Steel Garden Light (No 7), pictured.

With the country still under the influence of wintry weather, it seems gardeners are either preparing for the time when temperatures start to rise or continuing with the propagation of their plants indoors.

The highest new entry in the chart is Fiskars Powergrip Trowel at No 22 while the highest climber is Gardman Pricking Out Pots, pack of 20, which has jumped 13 places to No 26.

Other propagation products showing some growth in sales include the following from Gardman:

  • Seed & Plant Raising Kit, a re-entry at No 35.
  • Seed Tray Insert 24 Cell at No 36.
  • Cell Insert 40 at No 45.

The highest re-entry is Woodlodge Standard Spang Pot (pictured), 2.5 inch, at No 18.

Fito Drip Feeder for Orchids, 32ml, retains the No 1 spot for yet another week.
