We work year-round to source trends for our Garden Trend Reports. And this year, we couldn't wait a day past April 1 to share some of the biggest trends we’re predicting for 2019.
Here is an exclusive sneak peek:
Pee Sheds
Ladies have been loving their
she sheds, but what happens when nature calls?
In 2019, we will see she shed
owners rushing out for a second shed — a pee shed. These small structures are
separate from homes and contain one or more toilets. They’re absolutely perfect
for sitting and thinking and listening to nature’s music.
Those who have styled their
homes and sheds to be more “primitive” may choose to include a pit latrine or a
bucket. Those looking for a modern twist will definitely want to take a leak in
the $10,000
NeoRest 750, which includes a remote controlled bidet.
Whatever you choose,
don’t forget to bring your seed catalog for paper on the go.
Moss Capes
Wedding season is here.
As the weather begins to warm, bohemian brides everywhere are dreaming of seaside escapes, beautiful meadows in full bloom or a magical forest to be married in. Dreams of flowing dresses, bare feet and flower crowns have begun.
But wait, this new trend in floral wear is not flower crowns. Its moss capes!
This new trend will show your friends that you are truly one with nature. Moss capes can be made with any type of moss you’d like – including what is growing in your backyard! Want to add a pop of color? Weave in dandelions, the common daisy, creeping buttercup or any other colorful weed found in your yard. You will be the bride to remember!
Plantcestry Reveal Parties
Pink Brandywines or Cherokee
Purples? What’s your tomato plant’s plantcestry?
You can get DNA tests for
yourself, your pets and now — your plants. Digging deep into your favorite
plants’ plantcestry opens new doors for gardeners everywhere. These tests are
especially helpful for gardeners who just wait to see what sprouts up in their
garden from their compost.
Your results are a great
starting point for connecting with other gardeners with similar plants. Find
out where your plants are native to, what other plants they’re related to and
basically everything you could ever want to know including an ethnicity
estimate and a list of DNA matches (other people’s plants who have taken the
Plancestry test).
Once you’ve got a potential
breakdown of your plants heritage by percentage, throw a plancestry reveal
party and make a video to share with friends and family on social media!
Edible Plant Pods
Across the world, people are asking themselves, "Do I dare to eat a Tide Pod?”
No, the answer is no. Do not, under any circumstances, eat Tide Pods.
However, Plant Pods are the newest craze. Clearly targeting Generation Z, plant pods are available in an array of bright green, purple and red. Some pods can be eaten in the entirety, and some have to be opened to enjoy the contents inside.
Like most fads, people are turning to social media to share people eating their Plant Pods.
While these might seem a bit outlandish, Garden Media Group has been accurately predicting industry trends for over a decade. Today, April 1st is a wee bit early for our annual predictions, so stay tuned to find out which trends make the cut in our 2019 Garden Trends Report…
