Over 2,000 garden centres and plant nurseries have closed across the UK due to the COVID-19 pandemic. But many of us are still gardening – and a fair few people have taken up gardening as a new hobby – to get through this period of social distancing.
However, I’ve been working hard with QVC and their family of brands in order to bring you all you need for your spring gardening ventures, and with some very tempting deals for you guys at home.
Over the next few weeks, you can expect an increase of safely filmed shows with some beautiful plants. If you are able, tune into QVC (see when I’m on air here) and get yourself some brand new plants and other gardening products to make the most of your gardening in isolation. Read on for a preview of the products of offer…
