Woolly Pockets Pack a Punch at GLEE

[PRESS RELEASE] The Woolly Pocket Company really captured the imagination of visitors to this years GLEE at the NEC this week, with their contemporary new concept in modular gardening container systems. Their small stand packed a big punch, showcasing the Wally One, Three and Five modules, creating a stunning living wall display that generated interest from garden centre managers, garden designers, distributors and even a street artist! Inventor and keen gardener, Miguel Nelson from LA, was delighted with the warm reception. “We know that our Woolly Pockets have great potential, both indoors and outside, for creating hanging gardens or horizontal clusters that not only look great but also care for the plants. It was great to launch to such a receptive audience at GLEE. Clearly the visitors were there to get new ideas and were very receptive to the possibilities. The quality of the people we spoke to in terms of their ability to make buying decisions was exceptional and we were delighted to introduce our Woolly World to so many strong contacts” Director of The Garden Works, John Connel, is working with The Woolly Pocket Garden Co to co-ordinate the launch. He endorsed Miguel’s view;- “I have been coming to GLEE for many years, and even in a recession it still manages to deliver quality trade visitors. People come here looking for innovation and the wow factor, and that is what we delivered. It was very encouraging to see the trade really appreciating the quality and technical abilities of this product, not least its creative possibilities and longevity. Even in the British weather, we are confident that the material is both breathable and durable for at least 15 years.” We are in discussions with several top garden centres to establish an in store display and develop a programme of staff training to help them engage with the product and sell it more effectively.” he added For more information and images please contact;- Claire Hart on 01460 259776, Mob; - 07825077791 or email;- claire.hart@event-logistics.co.uk For images see;- http://www.woollypocket.com/presskit

"It could definitly be a honey locust sucker but it is more likely to be a Robinina sucker, they can send them up when stressed and ffresh growth can have a purple tinge. "
