Plant buyer feedback on websites

We are currently preparing our website, and thought this a good chance to get some feedback.

 

As a Plant Buyer, would you want plants listed in the normal way

Shrubs 2-30 litre

Trees  10 litre

Herbaceous  2-15 litre

Ferns 2-10 litre

etc.

 

Or by

Plants for Sun

Plants for Shade

etc

 

We are drawn to the latter, as it not only gives customers prices, but help.

 

Or any other ideas welcome?

 

Many thanks

  • Is your website going to be aimed at retail customers or trade - or both? Personally I would find the categories (ie perennials, shrubs, trees etc) with A-Z listings and sizes available for each most useful. If it is going to be aimed at both retail and trade, it would be useful to have a trade login section where only your trade prices are shown!

    Cheers

  • Hi Jenny,

     

    As we only sell to Trade customers, our website is already protected by a Trade login.  We do not sell to retail customers.

     

    A-Z listing and sizes is fine, and noted.

     

    Thank you.

  • Seeing a trend here, 3-0 to Tina so far.
  • i would say both

     

    say you wanted shrubs click on that then a subdivided into sun, shade etc

     

    also a search option for a particular plant as well

  • My local wholesaler, The Plant Company in West Sussex has set up an online shop for both retail and separately wholesale  - www.theplantco.co.uk/plants.html  they have a catagory at the side where you can select particular features.  I find their website very easy to use and seems to do everything I need it to.

  • I would like to have both and direct search box.

     

    The plants for shade etc is good for freshen ideas otherwise l find myself falling into the same trap.

    The shrubs, tree etc great for when you know what your after, though even quicker is putting the name in a search box.

     

    Are you planning to do UK deliveries or local only?

  • So that's around 6-3 to Tina, extra time to follow, and we can confirm, Andy Gray is not involved.  Well Tina is our Assistant referee and yes she does understand the offside rule!!!!

     

    Craig, if you take a line roughly from South Wales to North London, and everything South of that, is our area.   London is a world of it's own, yes we can, but price is per delivery.  This line does not include the last defender being level when the ball is played.

     

    From this Saturday we will publish our website link and although it has not been updated to our standard, yet, we are working on it.
