Harrogate Spring Flower Show a success for Rolawn and Rolawn-supported show gardens

The recent Harrogate Spring Flower Show was a huge success for Rolawn with show-goers taking great interest in the Medallion® Turf, topsoil and bark ranges displayed.

The Rolawn-supported show gardens also fared well with a silver gilt medal for John Cavill Garden Design and his garden ‘In The Garden’ which used Rolawn Medallion turf and Blended Loam topsoil. After only six days of being laid, the turf had rooted so well it was happy to be mowed. ‘On our show garden there can be no mistakes,’ said John. ‘So, mowing the lawn would normally be risky – but not with Rolawn. It is, without a doubt, Britain’s finest turf.’

Riseholme and Bishop Burton Colleges’ garden ‘It’s Still Me’ clinched a coveted Gold medal and the triumphant debutant trio of lead designer, Pippa Snowden ably supported by Alyson Harborne and Tina Orange were thrilled with the result. The garden used some of Rolawn’s Blended Loam topsoil within the expertly planted borders.

PRW Garden Services’ garden, ‘The Rustic Retreat’, which used Rolawn’s Blended Loam topsoil, was awarded a silver medal while Damson House Design was awarded a bronze for its show garden debut entry, the ‘Exploring Biophilia’ garden which included Rolawn Medallion turf and Blended Loam topsoil.

Rolawn’s Sales and Marketing Director, Jonathan Hill comments: “As always, Harrogate was a great start to our 2015 show season. It’s the first retail show we’ve done for a few years and I am very excited by the positive responses from the thousands of show-goers who came to visit us and the show gardens we supported. Already looking forward to next year!’

Important update: Temporary 6.5% surcharge effective 7 April 

At Rolawn, we are committed to maintaining the high standards of quality and service our customers expect, so we want to be open with our customers about a change that will affect pricing from Tuesday 7th April. 

This decision has been taken in response to disruption to energy supplies, which has led to significant increases in wholesale prices, affecting not only fuel and fertiliser but also costs throughout our wider supply chain. As a business that relies heavily on fuel for both transport and operations, these sustained cost pressures have become increasingly difficult to absorb.  

While we have worked hard to mitigate the impact, the scale and pace of recent price increases have now exceeded what we can sustain internally, and we therefore need to recover a proportion of these externally driven increases. 

From Tuesday 7th April, a temporary 6.5% surcharge will apply to all products.  

We know that any increase in price is frustrating, particularly at a time when many businesses and households are already feeling under pressure. That is why we want to be clear that this is not a decision we have made lightly, and not one we wanted to make. It has been introduced solely to help offset unavoidable cost inflation and allow us to continue delivering the quality, reliability and service standards associated with Rolawn. 

We will continue to monitor market conditions closely and will review this surcharge as soon as circumstances allow, providing reasonable notice of any changes. We recognise that any price increase is unwelcome, but this step is necessary to ensure the continuity and reliability of our operations during a period of ongoing uncertainty. 

We remain committed to providing the quality, reliability and service standards you expect from Rolawn, and we truly appreciate your understanding and continued support. 

If you have any questions, please contact our customer support team who will be happy to help.
