Autumn lawn care lights up the sales chart
 
Garden Products

Autumn lawn care products are selling like never before at this time of year. Ten of the Top 50 GTN Bestsellers Garden Products are lawn care items and Scotts Autumn Lawnbuilder for 100 sq metres is at No 2, only outsold by Orchid Drip feeders.

Other bestselling lawn care items are Scotts Evergreen Autumn, Westland Sure Start Lawn repair kit and Arthur Bowers Lawn Dressing.

Fito Orchid Drip Feeders stay at No 1 for the eighth week running and with considerable year on year sales increases. For the first three weeks in September the volume of Orchid Drip Feeders in the GTN Bestsellers epos data is up 38% on last year. 

The repeated use of these feeders is now well and truly appreciated by our garden centre orchid customers and new users must be adopting them too.  Can we achieve the same with Poinsettia Drip Feeders in December?  Will the Baby Bio Drip feeder come back into the charts?

Preparations for winter are also prompting good volume sales.  Gardman Frostgard sales grew by 88% to move back into the top 10 and the only new entry this week is a winter Tap Cover from Gardman.
