Coronavirus: Millions of garden plants set to be binned
Millions of plants, shrubs and trees could be binned in the coming days and weeks, meaning ruin for UK growers.
As one grower put it:"My car dealer down the road is shut. However painful that will be - they will still have all their vehicles. "We had sold thousands of plants, but then cancellations came in from everywhere. No ifs, no buts, the whole retail supply chain stopped for us."The value of stock during this key trading period is typically three to four times the year-end value of most businesses.
