Anyone seen these on sale?

[Cozzer]

We bought 2 of these a few years ago from a local garden centre. They had a boxfull at the time, tucked out of sight under another display. We returned just after Christmas in order to buy more, and found that many of the displays had already been removed for storage....and they've never reappeared since!
We check every year, with no joy.
So... seen any? If so, where?
Brass, longest branch extends about 12", no makers name. The supplied supports can be screwed anywhere - ours are screwed to door frames, so we've just left 'em there - the the branch just clips in.

DIY approach ?
Obviously not going to be the same, but nice to make yourself

When they packed them away, I think they put them on top of the Miracle-Gro:

'wire branch decoration' or 'brass wire branch' might help in searches.

Yes, I'd thought of that, but you've never seen my brazing!
They can look really nice when "loaded". Keeps my beloved busy for hours....
(It's a lot easier than a bloody tree....)

Only a local job. Not a chain, if that's what you were thinking...

Ah....but that's where we boxed clever!
The door opens the other way....

I'd be surprised if so.
Either way, according to the website, they don't appear to stock 'em now...

Since the OP couldn't see them on the website, a link would probably be useful...

Nope.
Just checked with the Manager there.
Not recognised as their stock.

 

[The_Yellow_Ardvark]

No, it would not be, as it was in clearance. So moved in from another Dobbies Center.
Helen is a one of the better Managers I have interacted with.

So different Dobbies stores hold different stock items, then?
Well, I'm not going back to him! I'm sure he's busy enough at this time of year!

Never dealt with Mark.
Yes they do have slightly different stock.
Some items sell better in different locations. You will find the stock is different between Cornwall and Essex/

Since Tesco got involved they are more standard now. They will move stock around from store to store, if one sells more than the other.
Lawn mowers was the one O notice more. Near bige cities you saw less of the bigger machines, than you would find in, say Wiltshire.
BBQs were the same.

Paraffin was the same.


At Christmas I used to see different items in Different Dobbies, Since they took on some of the old Wyevale centers as well.
