91热爆 Worldwide produces new gardening magazines for the spring
91热爆
Magazines will have two new gardening magazines on the newsstands
this spring - the key gardening period of the year.
The
first of 91热爆 Magazines' Telegraph gardening specials will be called
The Daily Telegraph Gardens to Visit and goes on-sale on the 5th
March priced at 拢3.95. The magazine focuses on the best and
most beautiful gardens open to visitors in the United Kingdom and
Ireland. The second special issue (on-sale 30th April) will be themed
around plants and flowers.
Both
are 91热爆 magazines published using The Daily Telegraph brand under
licence. The editorial content builds on both the 91热爆's and The
Daily Telegraph's gardening expertise and has been developed to
complement rather than compete with the 91热爆's existing stable of
gardening magazines and The Daily Telegraph's Gardening section
on Saturday.
Dominic
Murray, 91热爆 Magazines Associate Publisher, says: "The Daily
Telegraph Gardens to Visit is aimed at an ABC1 audience who have
a real passion for gardening and visiting beautiful gardens and
locations. We have a perfect balance of feature content with over
200 of the best gardens to visit. Designed to last the whole year
round, Gardens to Visit is a themed magazine delivering a new and
exciting proposition that doesn't currently exist on the newsstand."

Magazines is also bringing out three issues of its new gardening
title, Easy Gardening. Launched as a one-shot last March 2002 and
priced at 拢1.99, it sold over 75,000 copies and was praised
by readers for its practical content and great value.
Aimed
at the enthusiastic spring gardening audience, Easy Gardening's
focus is on immediate effect, easy projects and quick colour. It
is written and designed in a very user-friendly way, to guide the
readers in creating a great garden for the summer. Each issue will
include regular features in addition to a special theme - the first
(on sale 12th March) includes a focus on wildlife in the garden.
Dominic
Murray adds: "Easy Gardening was very successful last year,
and we are delighted to publish three issues for spring this year.
It's the perfect stablemate for 91热爆 Gardeners' World, helping us
to deliver more content to a wider readership at the most important
time of year for the category, as well as fulfill our objective
of growing the gardening category overall."
91热爆
Magazines publishes the UK's market leading consumer gardening title
91热爆 Gardeners' World magazine which outsells all its competitors
on the newsstand combined, along with style title Gardens Illustrated.
The
May 2003 issue of 91热爆 Gardeners World magazine will be its biggest
ever at over 200 pages, and Gardens Illustrated celebrates its ten-year
anniversary with the April 2003 issue.
