Woodlodge, the UK’s leading supplier of pots and containers, is announcing a major expansion into the gardening accessories market with the launch of its new Down to Earth range – a line-up of high-quality gardening goods ranging from obelisks to decorative trellis and plant supports that blend in with the latest consumer trends.
The range will be revealed for the first time at Glee (NEC Birmingham, 10th – 12th September), where buyers will be able to see the full offering and examine the potential of Down to Earth products to grow the buoyant plant support and garden accessories sectors.
Down to Earth is a natural extension for Woodlodge, with a plethora of new products that sit alongside the company’s extensive pot and container offering. The new range will sit perfectly alongside Woodlodge’s existing square tree stakes that are already stocked by garden centres nationwide.
Down to Earth will feature ornamental plant supports and accessories that are in high demand from consumers. The range includes metal plant supports in the form of obelisks, as well as pot trellis and pot stands. Decorative garden trellis will be available in a selection of fashionable shades, from natural wooden appearance to ever-popular green.
Michael Wooldridge, Managing Director at Woodlodge, said: “The markets for ornamental plant supports and gardening accessories are well established and ideally positioned for growth. One significant trend that we’ve witnessed over recent years is how gardens – particularly at new build properties and in urban areas – are becoming smaller. That’s where garden arches, trellis and obelisks play a vital role, enabling homeowners to create privacy in their gardens. The addition of height can result in a stunning focal point, establishing a sense of depth in gardens, especially once climbing plants have been introduced. The launch of Down to Earth will enable retailers to significantly ramp-up their offering, appealing to consumers who want to make the most of every inch of garden space, as well as to shoppers who are seeking quality gardening accessories.”
Woodlodge’s new Down to Earth range will also encompass stylish metal decorative hooks, as well as tree ties and round tree stakes to enable consumers to establish young trees in gardens. Pot trollies will help gardeners to easily move heavy container plants for best effect, while both bamboo and metal canes will appeal to shoppers looking for products to support flowers and vegetable plants in gardens and on allotments.
