Seasonal products starting to sell well
 

Gardeners are getting into a seasonal frame of mind with penquins and polar bears being the garden decoration of choice at the moment, according to this week's GTN Bestsellers report.

The Smart Solar Bright Eye Baby Penquin Light is the highest new entry while Vivid Arts Playful Polar Bear is climbing rapidly up the Garden Products chart.

After recent storms and with new tree planting in mind there are a number of tree product lines – greasebands and ties – figuring strongly. The highest climber is the Vitax Fruit Tree Grease (200g), which has jumped 24 places to No 21.

The garden tidy-up is also well underway with the Gardman Garden Tidy Kit a new entry. The company’s Garden Rubbish Sacks have re-entered the chart, and there are a number of gardening gloves appearing.

Scheurich Cover Pots have returned to the Top 50 – the glossy cream version being the highest placed at No 9 with dark red a place behind. And the Bestsellers old favourite – Classic Wheelie Bin Numbers – returns at No 27.
