Homebase is expanding its online offer to include thousands of garden and indoor plants available year-round from this  month (March).

The retailer says it is part of its ongoing digital development and is a bid to make gardening more accessible.

“Customers will no longer need to worry about the years and experience it can take to cultivate beautiful mature gardens, with a new range of Italian specimen plants with carefully manicured spirals and cloud shapes to create an ‘instant’ garden to be proud of,” says its press release.

Jon Kemp, head of garden at Homebase, said: “This is our biggest range of plants ever and now our customers will have more choice – as well as the freedom to shop when and how they want, whether that’s browsing one of our garden centres or at home online or through the new Homebase app.”

A new range of aquatic plants has been added this spring.
