Suntory will run a weekly campaign in the Garden Writers Association’s Clippings eNewsletter from January through September to promote The Suntory Collection, along with Senetti and Sun Parasol. The company will also continue its partnership with Garden Media Group.
“Growers and retailers will want to make sure they are stocked up on Suntory varieties,” says Delilah Onofrey, who supports Suntory’s marketing efforts in North America through Flower Power Marketing. “There is nothing more frustrating for retailers than when a customer comes in seeking a plant she saw in a magazine but it’s not available. Our goal is to build brand recognition to help growers and retailers sell more plants and benefit from the demand Suntory is creating.”
