“Our consumer marketing program for 2014 is designed to achieve maximum exposure to consumers in our various markets across the country,” Hayes says. “We are taking full advantage of a range of broadcast and print media as well as digital, mobile and public relations to build awareness of the consumer advantages and the depth and breadth of this exceptional Plant Collection.”

The HGTV Home Plant Collection will be featured in national TV spots on HGTV and the DIY Network in April and May of 2014, as well as in print ads in HGTV Magazine. Print ads will also appear in regional shelter and garden magazines in March, April, May and June.

A reflection of digital and mobile media’s growing popularity and influence, the Plant Collection will also appear in geo-targeted digital content on HGTV.com, DIYnetwork.com, hgtvgardens.com and Facebook in April and May. Geo-targeted mobile banner ads will run on mobile devices around select retail locations during a similar 8-week flight in April and May.
