Spiraclimb at the National Trust

Last month was an exciting one for Spiraclimb as we made our first delivery since becoming approved suppliers for the National Trust. This means that hopefully in 2010, Spiraclimb will be much more widely available through their national chain of plant shops.

Appropriately enough it was a local garden, Trelissick, that placed the first National Trust order and the regional paper, the Western Morning News, sent a reporter along to record the event. The plant center manager, John Gallagher, very helpfully planted up a tall planter using the sample we had sent him so that the photographer had a plant on a Spiraclimb to photograph!


In addition, as you can see, he took some pictures of the Spiraclimb in its packaging.



The delivery represents a new and exciting phase for the company. As a small Cornish company with a single product, to be able to supply a national chain (and in doing so raise money for the National Trust's valuable work) is an excellent opportunity and we hope that in doing so more gardeners will discover and enjoy growing with Spiraclimb.
