Dobbies Garden Centres opened the doors of its Richmond little dobbies today (November 4 2021), giving green fingered Londoners more opportunities to sample a carefully curated range of houseplants, gardening products and seasonal items.
Located at 54 George Street, this is the third little dobbies to open in London and the fifth in the UK, following Westbourne Grove, Chiswick, Clifton which all opened this year, and Edinburgh which opened in 2020.
Customers visiting the new Richmond branch will have the opportunity to discover and browse Dobbies quality range of houseplants, which include Alocasia, Calathea, Yukka, Succulents, large foliage, Terrariums and plants from The little Botanical. There will also be chance to shop convenience and sustainable gardening products such as Dobbies own brand peat-free compost, bamboo pots and gardening tools.
Alongside core, high quality products, customers will also have the chance to explore home decoration and spa ranges, food gifting from Hotel Chocolat and Dobbies Signature range, as well as Christmas decorations and potted real trees.
Janice Bilyard, General Manager for little dobbies Richmond, said: “The whole team is excited to welcome people to the store, where they will be met with an exciting variety of Dobbies’ products. With attention quickly turning to Christmas, customers will also have the chance to get ready for the festive period, whether that’s decorations for their homes, or presents for loved ones.”
The leading garden retailer continues to lead the market with 74 stores UK-wide, ranging from little dobbies to larger garden centres.
Graeme Jenkins, CEO at Dobbies, said: “Our little dobbies stores in Chiswick and Westbourne Grove have been well received by London customers, and we are proud to be able to further expand our offering in the country’s capital with this latest opening.
“The little dobbies stores were designed as a new way for customers to shop local, providing the same quality products Dobbies is known for in a more urban environment. The format is proving extremely popular with customers, and we’re looking forward to even further expansion in 2022.”
Opening hours for little dobbies Richmond are Monday – Wednesday, 9am – 7pm; Thursday – Saturday 9am – 8pm; Sunday 10am – 7pm.
