November is more than making up for a disappointing October. After three weeks the GTN Bestsellers Plant Sales volume index is up 23% for the month year on year.
That means plant sales over the past 14 weeks are now showing a 6% increase.
- Sales of pre-planted Hyacinth made them the highest chart climber this week.
- Pre-planted daffs sent Narcissus back into the chart at No 10.
- Lithops, living stone, were the highest new entry at No 33.
