The June 2016 issue of Garden Center magazine is now available online. It can be accessed at this link or by selecting "digital edition" from the "Magazine" tab on our website.
Our cover story for the June issue focuses on Wingard's Market in Lexington, S.C., formerly known as Wingard's Nursery, which changed its name, logo and branding to emphasize its produce, food and gift offerings. The Wingard's Market team took significant steps to refresh its look and product mix to ensure a bright future for their business.
Also inside: tips for allergy-smart gardening for customers who suffer from them, the comeback of indoor gift plants, insights into designing and selling easy-to-use garden trellises, how a social gardening app can show retailers what their customers want, stand-out sights, ideas and inspiration from the 2016 California Spring Trials and more.
We also covered ways to make YouTube work for your brand, ideas for water management in growing operations and strategies for "just right" supervision of staff, among other topics.
Keep up with the latest news on Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram.
