New Signature Hydrangea Red Butterfly Launched At The RHS Chelsea Flower Show

 
Harrogate Garden Centre, part of the British Garden Centres family, has launched their new signature Hydrangea Red Butterfly at the 2022 RHS Chelsea Flower Show.

Hydrangea Red Butterfly has a wonderful colour and is named to celebrate the company’s recent logo refresh.

The Hydrangea Red Butterfly has launched as an RHS Chelsea Flower Show exclusive and will be launched in the garden centre later in the year. The plant is also supporting Greenfingers charity, as £10 from each plant sold at the show will be donated to the charity.

Hydrangeas are always a popular plant at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show as they look so good at this time of year.

Tom Cook, Plant Buyer at British Garden Centres, secured this plant for the group. He has created many magnificent Hydrangea displays in the Floral Marquee and even won a Gold Medal Winner for them with his father.

In March 2022, British Garden Centres launched their new logo design with a hand-crafted Butterfly sitting front and centre and becoming the image for the brand.

The new logo continues to represent the family-led group, and as the business continues to grow and evolve, the butterfly will perfectly represent the transformation and development the business is going through.

Tom Cook, Plant Buyer at British Garden Centres said:
“Hydrangeas are a beautiful plant and have a lot of meaning behind them and to me personally. When looking for the perfect plant to launch as the group's signature at the RHS Chelsea Flower Show, a red hydrangea was the only option. It links to the group's symbolism for passion through the colour and name, which is the Red Butterfly.”


Talking about the new logo, Boyd Douglas-Davies, PR, and Communications Director, said:
“Just like our garden centres, butterflies are wonderfully unique and come in all shapes and sizes. Whilst they are all different, they are instantly recognisable as butterflies.

We feel the same about our 61 centres, as they are unique, and all designed to best serve their local community. Whilst they are all completely different, they do have several instantly recognisable features as British Garden Centres because of the wonderful teams, great plants and products, exceptional value and delicious food and drink”.
