Westland Horticulture, home to brands such as Boost, Resolva, Jack’s Magic, Peckish, Kent & Stowe, and Unwins, unveiled a collection of new product at this year’s Glee and welcomed customers from near and far. 

Stand out launches from this year’s Glee for Westland Horticulture included its first carbon neural compost, the Boost Growing System, Resolva Patio Power Cleaners range, the Kent & Stowe Capability Spade, Peckish Woodland Feast Feeders, and much more. 

Sustainable gardening

Westland was thrilled to launch its first carbon neutral compost incorporating biochar into the trusted John Innes collection at this year’s GLEE. The addition of enriched biochar into the John Innes composts will allow gardeners to benefit from improved aeration and water management, as well as to hold and release nutrients for when plants need it. It will also allow home gardeners to naturally improve the health of their soil, sequester carbon and mitigate climate in a simple, accessible, and sustainable way.

Driving the container and basket category forward 

The highly successful Boost brand has expanded its range, which now features a simple 3-step format to help gardeners achieve the best container and basket displays. The additions include a handy 25 litre Mini Bale format of Boost All-Purpose Compost, as well as the new Boost All Purpose Multi-Action Granules, designed to support plants from the initial planting and establishment phase, all the way through to vibrant, blooming displays.

Unrivalled strength and durability

Kent & Stowe proudly introduced The Capability Digging Spade this year, which is designed to tackle the most challenging gardening tasks. It features a breaking strain of 130kg, reflecting the meticulous craftsmanship and exceptional performance expected from the Kent & Stowe brand. It owes its strength to an extended shank, reinforced with a hardened stainless steel pin, with a formed, hardened steel bar welded inside the head, so the spade can withstand the strain of heavy duty gardening. 

Inspiring shoppers to discover the joy of feeding wild birds

Peckish launched two brand new products at this year’s GLEE. The new Woodland Feast Feeder collection is made entirely from 100% recycled materials and sustainably sourced wood, giving new life to waste. The second launch aims to ease consumer frustration surrounding refilling wild bird feeders, with a no mess Funnel Feeder, that makes the job of refilling the feeder quick, simple and hassle free. 

Retail Excellence

Westland’s Welsh Dresser for its houseplant care collection and Flopro’s Connect, Spray, Sprinkle merchandising solutions held 2 of the 3 spots for shortlisted products in the New Product Awards for Retail Services & Experiences, demonstrating Westland’s commitment to its retail partners and driving purchase in store.
