As the country wrapped up against the snow and freezing conditions over the weekend of Garden Re-Leaf and Mother's Day, garden centres throughout the land were encouraged by an increase in buying activity in their stores.
Get snapped with your Dandy facemask ...for a chance to win a pallet of Resolva
A competition in Garden Trade News to win a pallet of Resolva is proving to be a big hit with garden centre staff who are getting themselves photographed wearing Dandy facemasks.
The Resolva Dandy facemasks were given away free in the latest issue of GTN, and to stand a chance of winning the main prize readers have to tweet pictures of themselves with the masks.
Famous for his quirky TV advert appearances, the Resolver character Dandy is the country's favourite cheeky little weed that is taking the nation by storm.
The person or centre to submit the most fun and inventive picture that brings the character's personality to life will win the prize.
If you have your Resolva Dandy mask and would like some inspiration, staff at Garden Trade News had their pictures taken with their facemasks at their local Van Hage Peterborough store.
And if you need any more inspiration visit www.resolva-weeds.com to view Resolva's award-winning TV campaign featuring Dandy.
If you would like a copy of Garden Trade News, March 2013 issue, with the Resolva Dandy facemask email pat.flynn@tgcmc.co.uk
And to enter the competition, simply tweet your pictures to @Dandy_Weed and use the hashtag #ellomate before 1st May 2013. Don't forget to include your name, email address, telephone number, and the name of the garden centre you work for in your tweet. The usual terms and conditions apply. Competition open to all employees of UK-based garden centres.
