In the UK, we spend £2.2billion on houseplants and cut flowers a year. About 60% of this is represented by people buying flowers and plants for themselves and their home.

Although we are buying more houseplants each year, the extra plants are being supplied from continental Europe, rather than the UK.

So why should it matter to you where your houseplant is grown?

• At Double H we know that the less distance your houseplant has to go from the nursery to your home, the better condition it is likely to be. Many houseplants sold in the UK are still imported and have to travel 100’s of miles from the nursery. When you buy a plant grown in the UK you not only get longer enjoyment but also help to save road miles.
• Combined with our constant drive to improve the quality of the plants we supply, this gives us a distinct advantage.
• Through research and monitoring of UK buying trends, we have a better understanding of what you, the UK consumer, is after.

For every houseplant you buy this year, a consumer in Denmark, Norway and Switzerland will buy five. In fact, Continental Europe in general spends a great deal more on houseplants.

This means that there is BIG potential for growth in our market. At Double H we are excited about all the potential new products, ideas and developments in distribution that will enable us to work with our trading partners to your mutual benefit!

Our Vision is: To be the first choice supplier of houseplants to UK supermarkets
