Same Roots! New Name! Exciting Future!
GTN Xtra Promotion

In May 2025, G Plants officially changed its name to Bees Seeds Limited, beginning the next exciting chapter in the company’s journey. Under the guidance of Carly Jackson, appointed Group Managing Director in July 2024, the business has embraced this rebrand as a bold step forward, aligning with its mission to inspire and support growers everywhere. 
 

Carly said: “As our strapline says, we’re buzzing about growing. For me, this rebrand is about making sure our products are truly accessible – no matter someone’s level of experience, the space they have available, or their budget. We’re developing a range where there’s something for everyone. 
 

"My passion is to spread the joy of growing, and Bees Seeds gives us the perfect platform to do that. With the creativity and energy of the team behind me, I’m proud to put my stamp on the business and excited to lead us into this new chapter – helping more people than ever connect with nature and experience the reward of growing.” 

 

Visitors to Glee can discover Bees Seeds’ new 2026 product range in the GIMA area and grab a goodie bag from the sales team:
