British Garden Centres’ signature Hydrangea Red Butterfly is now available in store

 

British Garden Centres’ signature Hydrangea Red Butterfly which launched last year at the 2022 RHS Chelsea Flower Show is now available for keen gardeners to take and plant in their own garden.

 

Hydrangea Red Butterfly has a wonderful colour and is named to celebrate the family-run garden centre group’s recognisable logo.  The beautiful plant launched as an RHS Chelsea Flower Show exclusive last year and will be available in all of the family-run group’s garden centre stores this summer priced at just £29.99.

 

Hydrangeas are always a popular plant in UK gardens as they burst into life with showy blooms that last from summer to autumn.  Red Butterfly is a Hydrangea macrophylla which can be planted all year round in borders or containers whilst the soil is warm.  Its large clusters of large vivid red flowers contrast perfectly with its green foliage, making it a focal plant for any outdoor space.

 

Red Butterfly was Secured for British Garden Centres by Plant Buyer, Tom Cook, who has created many magnificent Hydrangea displays in Chelsea’s Floral Marquee and even won a Gold Medal Winner for them with his father. 

 

Tom said, “Hydrangeas are a beautiful plant and have a lot of meaning behind them and to me personally. When looking for the perfect plant to launch as the group's signature bloom at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show last year, a red hydrangea was the only option. It links to the group's symbolism for passion through the colour and name, which is the Red Butterfly.”

 

All centres now have this exclusive Hydrangea Red Butterfly for all shoppers to take a piece of British Garden Centres home, hurry while stocks last!
