RHS Growing Gardeners: a new concept in family gardening

This season we're launching RHS Growing Gardeners. It’s a new family gardening concept which builds on the love for gardening together that families have discovered in recent years.

In an innovative step, the range of tools and accessories is backed by an online resource with family-friendly ideas, projects and inspiration from the trusted experts at the RHS, developed to make gardening with children easy and fun.

The new RHS Growing Gardeners range has been created with two distinct users in mind: the adult, as well as the child. With knowledge and inspiration from the RHS for the grown-up, and high-quality colourful tools and accessories for the youngster, the activity-based approach of the range makes it easy for families to start enjoying gardening together.

The parent or carer can select a project from the online resource such as growing a sunflower or making pine cone bird feeders – something to suit their child, their home, and the time available. Growing Gardeners makes it easy to pick an activity, find the kit – and get gardening!

Designed for age range 5 – 12, the range has been developed to appeal to all kinds of families, living in all kinds of homes. Whether a family has a large outdoor space, or is looking for an indoor windowsill project, the RHS Growing Gardeners range will spark the imagination.

In addition to tools and accessories such as trowel and hand fork, digging fork and spade, watering can, gloves, dibber and planting ruler set, paper pot maker and more, the range introduces a number of completely new and innovative ideas for the family gardening market.

Link-a-Pots

Link-a-Pots is a set of three plant pots with clear bases to show when the plant needs watering, helping families keep their plants healthy for a positive growing experience. The pots can be linked together to form chains and shapes, and linked with additional sets.

potting mat and tool bag is a clever dual-function design. It’s a handy way to store or transport tools, unzipping to form a 62 x 33cm potting mat, to keep tabletop or bench clean while gardening.

Finally, there’s My Garden Patch, sets of colourful garden stakes, in a choice of flower or veg designs, to mark out the young gardener’s special patch in the garden.

2-in-1 potting mat and tool bag

The range has been created with sustainability front of mind. There are recycled and recyclable materials; sustainable materials like bamboo; and recyclable card packaging. The durability of the tools and accessories lifts them out of the throwaway ‘sandpit tools’ category, instead offering a ‘buy once, buy right’ investment in quality.

With the support of the online resource, and with RRPs ranging from just £4.99 up to £22.99, there’s something here to help every family have a positive, successful and creative gardening experience together.
