Burgon & Ball to roll out 70 new lines at Glee

Burgon & Ball will launch its biggest-ever collection of new products at Glee next month.

More than 70 will be unveiled on the stand (19C26-E27), led by a range of stylish indoor plant pots, tapping into the trend for bringing the outdoors in for a lush jungle-like look. With houseplants making style headlines, the pots are available in a choice of colours and finishes to complement every room, all sized to fit the most popular sizes of houseplants sold in garden centres.

The range includes unique hanging pots with a cool, contemporary feel, glazed pots in a range of colours and styles with textured designs and an on-trend artisan appearance. The terracotta pots have a weathered effect for a touch of country house style. Also in the range are quirky cactus vases.

Glee will also be the first outing for the vibrant ‘Brie Harrison for Burgon & Ball’ collection (pictured on the opening page), a new range of gifts for home and garden. On-trend botanical designs feature Swiss cheese plants, cacti and hanging plants. Gift lines includes a secateur and holster gift set, trowel, snips and plant label gift set, a comfortable kneeler, gardening gloves and twine in a tin. For the home, there is an indoor watering can, peg bag, pencil case, drinks tray, storage tin and an umbrella.

In tools, you will find a new idea designed to take the backache out of tackling unwanted lawn weeds.

Autumn 2017 sees a re-launch of the company’s popular Enamelwares collection, updating colours, materials and design and introducing natural elements with FSC beech lids and leather handles. They cover a range of key price points.

Glee visitors can also see eye-catching additions to the company’s design-led Sophie Conran collections, including new bird care products and items for home and garden.
