People are "occupying" local farmers markets and joining CSA's (Community Supported Agriculture) for fresh produce, plants and products. "Farmers markets are our new backyard veggie gardens and are becoming our local grocery store," says McCoy. According to the U.S. Dept of Agriculture, sales of "locally produced food" reached $4.8 billion in 2008.They project that locally grown foods will generate $7 billion in sales dominated by fruit and veggies this year.
Conscious Consumption. According to the 2010 Cone Survey, 83% of consumers still want to see more brands, products, and companies that support worthy causes. "We've finally moved from "me" to "we" and consider our earth and each other when we purchase," says McCoy. American Beauties Native Plantsa partnership with the National biomass Federation is a great example of this mind shift. When you buy an American native plant like the new ground cover, 'Blue Moon' woodland phlox, for example, a donation is made to NWF's Certified Wildlife Habitat Program.
Water-Watchers. "There is no single issue greater than water," says Dr. Hall. Recent drought and regional water restrictions are causing us to grow plants, flowers and vegetables with less water. Beneficial soil amendments like the new biochar are considered by many scientists to be the "black gold" for gardening. Its high carbon content and porous nature help soil retain water and nutrients, saving gardeners time and money. Look for Eco Cover organic mulch discs in all Bloom tastic! plant containers from Hines Growers to help save water and reduce weeds. Hydroponic gardening is hot, allowing plants to grow year-round in nutrient rich solutions that actually use less water.
In Living Color. Neon colors, pop art and color blocking are influencing fashion on the runways to fashion in the garden. From Tangerine Tango, the new Pantone color of the year, to deep purples and soothing greens, colors are all over the landscape. With rich, gem like colors you can create your own personal piece of paradise. Tropic Escape Hibiscus from Costa Farms produces huge flowers that last twice as long as regular hibiscus and are perfect for decorating patios and landscapes. Create a Technic color summer with new Bloom tastic! Bambino Bougainvillea and multi-colored bougainvillea Patio Trees. Hines' new Patio Tropics Desert Rose, Adenium Kissable Pinka, is carefree and adds intense tropical color to patios, balconies and poolside.
Inner Gardening. Decorating our inner gardens with house plants for better, healthier lives is now the new norm. These natural oxygen machines clean indoor air while bringing life to any room.Whether you want ferns, peace lilies or palms, bring nature in and green up your spaces for a better, healthier you.
Techno-Gardening. With the rise of smart phone technology, QR-codes, apps and Groupon, social living is bringing power to the people and consumers into the buying experience, and making it easy for consumers to "get in on everything from flash sales to secret finds." According to Trend Watching, 'dealer chic' is on the rise where securing the best deal is not just accepted- it's admired.
