First it was Stepables, that brought excitement and expansion to a staple category – groundcover plants.
Stepables at The Garden Corner
There is a merchandising rack system available for Stepables, but since they are sold in national big-box chains savvy independent garden centers seek to differentiate with creative displays such as the one shown above at The Garden Corner in Tualatin, (Portland) OR. Co-owner Tracy Karsseboom creatively located the classy shoes at a second hand store.
The category is ever-expanding with Plants That Work in Nooks & Crannies from Novalis, and Rock Stars from Valleybrook and others.
