Garden retail is governed entirely by the calendar — what can go in the ground this fortnight, what needs cutting back, what is about to flower — so a weekly 'jobs to do now' format both sells the exact stock on the benches and gives customers a reason to check the account every Friday.
Centres post general prettiness and promotional graphics detached from the season, which is invisible to a customer who genuinely does not know whether it is too late to plant bulbs and has nobody to ask.

Frequently asked questions
Which Versely workflow fits Garden Centers best?+
"Hivewell Raw Honey" is a close match — it's built for 9:16 at 310 credits on Vidu Q3 Image to Video, and every prompt, voiceover line and reference image is editable before you render your own version.
What aspect ratio should Garden Centers use for AI video?+
9:16 — vertical is the default for TikTok, Instagram Reels and YouTube Shorts, where most of this audience's watch time lives.
How often should Garden Centers post AI-generated video?+
About 4x a week, roughly 17 posts a month. If every post were a full workflow render at the recommended workflows' real cost, that's about 5270-7497 credits a month — mixing in real footage or lighter one-tap templates brings that down.
How local does a garden centre's content need to be?+
Extremely — planting advice is only useful against a specific climate and frost date, and generic national advice actively misleads the customers standing closest to your car park.
What sells in the quiet months?+
Houseplants, tools, gifting and planning content carry the winter, but the deeper play is building the audience through winter so the spring rush arrives already following you rather than being advertised to.
