We can ensure the best quality, maintain excellent stock levels and this often results in our ranges being bigger (offering more choice for you too) and our prices lower!

Recently, our buyers at Whilton Locks headed out to look at prices at a couple of ‘chain’ garden centres. In comparing the ‘best sellers’ like herbs, strawberries, multipurpose compost, bedding plants and alpines we were consistently better value. Bigger ticket items, such as garden furniture, we were remarkably cheaper and we offered better quality, better delivery options (most immediate and in stock) and again a far better range.

This is all great news, knowing you are getting the best deals at Whilton Locks. Blooming marvellous you could say and if you take a look at our outside displays* you will agree the colour, choice and quality IS blooming marvellous too.

Free parking, huge choice, great stock availability and so mulch more.

See you soon.

No, not the football – it’s anything in our store, if it’s too big or bulky to fit in your car. Perhaps a brand new BBQ or some Garden Furniture just in time for some alfresco footie watching.

Speak to one of our top team members, with a certain spend and distance to your home, it might even be free! That’ll give you something to cheer about.

There are three methods to achieve the look. These are based on how much you’d like to do yourself and how much time until you need the display (there is nothing worse than having a special event and your hanging baskets still have a couple of weeks until they are looking their best!!) So which will you be? A, B or C?

A. Plant Your Own
This is very much DIY and is really unique to you. We have a huge choice to help – so this method is fun and the results can be incredible. We have an amazing collection of bush and trailing plants to create your very own hanging baskets. Our hanging basket plants are grown on a specialist nursery in the Malvern Hills, that we have been growing with for over 20 years. Grown in 9cm ‘deep root’ pots we are able to achieve plants in flower at a great price – £2.99 each pick & mix and any 5 for £12. Favourites include Trailing Petunia, Catmint, Trailing Fuchsias, Million Bells, Ivy Leaf Geraniums and many more.

B. Pop In With Pop Easy Baskets
Easy Baskets – The easy way to plant a basket or container. If you’re looking for beautiful summer hanging baskets then this is the perfect product for you. The hanging basket planter are little miracles of magic – a pre-grown ‘insert’ with a choice of 15 different designer themes to suit every taste or colourway.

From Bridal Bouquet (one of our best sellers, and shown on the left of the pic above, with its starting point look) to bold colours of Bollywood, Berry Swirl and Heatwave. Easy Baskets POP and are so simple, look, there are just four easy steps:
1. Shop
Come to Whilton Locks Garden Village and pick your pre-planted insert. There are 15 to choose from. Check out our choice of baskets and containers and grab a bag of multipurpose compost.

2. Pop
At home, fill a hanging basket, or container with the compost leaving a 5cm or 2″ gap at the top. Pop your pre-planted insert in.

3. Easy
Water well… and watch.
The plants are fully charged with feed and in a few weeks your little Pop plants will burst into colour. Your Pop plants will be WOW!

4. Peasy
Be amazed. Whilton Locks Pop Easy Baskets flower all summer and are so easy peasy to do. Done in just four simple steps (or five if you stop for a slice of cake in our Canalside restaurant). Blooming marvellous – blooming easy – and available right now.

C. Ready Planted and Ready to Hang – Instant Colour
If you are looking for a quick fix we have 100’s of ready planted baskets, available right now. Many of our baskets are hand planted by our plant team here at Whilton Locks.

We have 14″ wicker baskets with mixed and colour themed planting. New trailing Petunias Bridal Blush, Fuchsia or Begonia baskets. 16″ wicker with Million Bells and luxury side planted 15″ baskets planted with a premium selection of summer colour. Our baskets range from £19.99 to £49.99.

So amazing Hanging Baskets can be straightforward, in fact, as easy as A, B, well, come and C for yourself.
