Success at the National Plant Show for Bransford Webbs

 

The Bransford Webbs Plant Company have marked yet another National Plant Show with the successful launch of the Bransford Webbs app and by winning Best New Plant in the Shrub and Climber category.  

 

The new ordering app, which can be downloaded through both the Apple Store and Google play, will allow customers to order from anywhere at anytime, whilst there is a desktop function available for those who prefer to order online in this way. Our fantastic sales team will still be available in the same way to place orders on the phone, by email or through visits.  

 

Bransford Webbs were thrilled to be awarded Best New Plant in the Shrub and Climber category, in conjunction with Darby Nurseries with Hydrangea ‘Zeta Noir’. This Hydrangea is beautiful variety with exceptional dark foliage and contrasting bright pink flower heads, with a long flowering period and lasting colour impact. They also picked up a Gold award for Hydrangea Fairytrail® ‘White’, Silver for Hydrangea ‘Bellatrix’, Hydrangea Fairytrail® ‘Green’ and Diervilla ‘Kodiak® Mixx’ and Bronze for Salvia Sunkiss™ ‘Berry Blast’, meaning all six plants that were entered in the New Plant Awards achieved an award.  

 

David Chilvers, Sales and Marketing Director, commented “The NPS did not disappoint this year, we spoke to lots of customers old and new, and winning the new plant award for the second year running was the icing on the cake."
