Another testimonial for G1

 

           We were very pleased to hear from Leslie Mossam, a garden designer from Stafford,

who got a small pack of Grazers G1 (rabbits, pigeon & deer) at a show last year to try out, obviously in her business she is well aware of the difficulties and heartache of designing and creating gardens that have rabbits around. 

         

           As a trial she sprayed some annual Verbena in her garden which had already been grazed pretty badly and said that she didn't hold out much hope given the level of damage already done, however the rabbits immediately left them alone and moved on, the plants went on to thrive and flower (if a little late). Ms Mossam was delighted and phoned us to order more product for the coming season.

Spring in Cumbria?

 

I took a break from the office for a couple of hours today to walk the dog after a very busy week at Grazers - It seems that spring has sprung in some parts of the country! 

 

As you can see spring hasn't arrived here in Cumbria yet!

 

This is a favourite spot near us - Howtown along the quiet side of Ullswater.

 

John Negus talk at Weyhill, Andover

"Had a great talk last night at Weyhill, Andover. My quiz resulted in a very happy lady going away with a Grazer spray gun for tackling cabbage white butterflies, caterpillars and aphids. Well done this company for innovating an environmentally safe organic control for keeping our garden pest free."

John Negus' Gardening Club Prizewinners

‘After chatting to members of the Warfield Park, Bracknell, Berkshire gardening club and South Holmwood WI Dorking, I presented a quiz in which the winner was delighted to receive a trigger-spray container of Grazers new G2 Formula. Effective against damage from slugs and snails on hostas¸ delphiniums and other vulnerable plants, it should be applied weekly to keep the ‘night brigade’ at bay. I have nothing by the greatest admiration for this company for developing a range of safe and friendly remedies for keeping edible and ornamental plants free from marauders’

CONGRATULATIONS!

NEW G3 Caterpillars and cabbage white butterflies

NEW PRODUCT FOR 2015

Independent replicated trials carried out over the last 2 years in the lab and garden with a new formula have shown significant effect against damage from cabbage white butterflies (laying eggs) and caterpillar damage on vegetables. Treated plants are much healthier and damage is limited.
Also effective against damage from sap suckers eg. aphid.

GRAZERS G3 rrp £6.99

G3 works in the same way as all our Grazers products - it is totally safe to use because you are treating your plants with a specific calcium solution, which has negligible effect on the soil, doesn't harm the pest! and yet benefits the plant

LIVE & LET GROW!

We are sending product out to garden centres and mail order stockists right now ready for spring.

Our web site and on line shop will be updated shortly with information and trial data.

NEW G1 ready to use RABBIT, PIGEON & DEER

We have been making the concentrated G1 product for gardeners for 6+ years now and have been asked from time to time to do a ready to use version for people with small gardens, yards, pots etc.

 

What really triggered my decision was the number of customers who use Grazers on cut flowers and wreaths placed on cemetery plots or graves!  

 

I wasn't sure if it would work on cut flowers but by the number of calls we have had it certainly does but obviously to buy a bottle of concentrate which makes enough spray to treat 1000m2 plus all the hassle of mixing makes it not very practical .

 

So here you go an easy ready to use spray and remember totally safe for us and the environment while also benefitting the plant!

Four Oaks Nursery Trade Show

Sue working hard on our Grazers stand at Four Oaks Trade Show

Always a good show!

This is the start to the new season for us promoting existing and new products to growers and garden centres from across the UK

Last year we got an award in the Best New Retail Product category with G2 slug & snail.

This year we  took our new G1 rabbit, pigeon & deer in a ready to use bottle as a new introduction   (more on that next time).

Horticulture Trade shows have struggled over the last few years, becoming very fragmented and lacking direction and support from the industry. However Four Oaks is the exception and seems to go from strength to strength.

This year there were 474 exhibitors from UK and Europe (and even New Zealand!) covering nursery plant stock, garden centre sundries and service providers and we are kept very busy both days talking to existing customers and potential new ones.

The only down side for me is that it is not supported by more of the bigger multiple buyers. A great chance for them to connect with and see all aspects of the plants industry.

In my 30+ years in the nursery industry this is a show that still retains that friendly feel and a great chance to meet up with colleagues and new contacts - they even provide free pack up lunch and refreshments!
