The Royal Horticultural Society says demand has risen as shops limit sales of some fresh produce.
Mike Burks from the Gardens Group said sales of seeds, compost, trays, propagators and pots had all risen
"Potatoes, peas, beans. Also tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers as well as lettuce and other salad crops. Brassicas such as cabbage, cauliflower, broccoli and kale have done well too. It's across the board"Sales of compost, seed trays, propagators and pots had also shown double digit increases. With the trend to smaller gardens many people were growing on patios and window boxes, he added.
