Retail sales of decorative grab-and-go containers are expected to increase again this year! Consumers remain busier than ever, and
the ease and beauty of retail grab-and-go containers offer endless possibilities. The pandemic brought new types of gardeners to
our market, so we must continue to be creative with what we offer within our retail displays. It's easy when you know your type of
gardener! Some consumers lack confidence in their ability to put beautiful combinations together. Others just don't have the time.
Grow your retail sales by showing your customers the best way to add instant curb appeal, and style their spaces with grab-and-go
containers. Whether it's a porch or a patio, consumers are looking closer at decorative planters as they style their outdoor spaces.

FOR THE BOLD
GARDENER
Bright colors, whether flowers
or planters, make us feel alive!
Southern Patio Kay planters
are sleek, shiny, and durable.
These brightly colored planters
create a high-end feel in the
retail space due to their quality
and with 3G for soil space,
rest assured you will keep your
gardeners successful helping
maintain moisture. Choose
bright red or pink and add
electricity to your displays. Or
go patriotic with summer sales
with the red, white, and blue
for a Fourth of July theme!

FOR THE MODERN GARDENER
Whether modern or classic, black and white
containers ground your space and have a crisp
way of complementing foliage and flowers,
Bloem's Finley containers rose to the top of the
sales ladder this spring, being used primarily
for indoor houseplants and tropicals. Finley
planters are available in square and round
styles that build a foundation for any modern
space. Modern colors never go out of style,
make sure you have them!
The art of grab-and-go container sales is
knowing your gardening consumer! Bright
colors have a way of elevating your mood at
the end of the day, and they can add a jolt of
color to any spot. Modern colors and sharp
shapes create form and foundation to any
classic space. You'll be sure to find all that you
need to create head-turning displays at our
upcoming fall expo. Dream it! Buy it! Plant it!
See you in September!
