Numerous new growing accessories are on show, ranging from micro-grow light gardens and portable greenhouses to novel garden netting designs, plant supports, link stakes and garden arches. Among the revolutionary watering accessories are a mobile telephone operated control system, a daylight sensored water controller and a weather responsive system.
There are new lightweight and multi-purpose hand tools, outdoor clocks, garden storage buildings, patio brooms and barbecue accessories. Items to meet the demands of the expanding wildlife market include funky-style bird boxes and feeders.
Within the main British exhibitor pavilion is a UK garden industry information stand, manned by the Gardenex federation’s team of multi-lingual staff.
