Twice a year Canadian Tire takes over an empty space, and transforms it into a place that’s filled with the the next season’s trends. Last summer they took over a house in suburbia, and morphed it into Christmas time.
Here’s what’s coming for us this summer season.
The patterns of summer 2015 are oversized florals, watercolour patterns and bold stripes, all in brighter colours than have previously been en vogue.
Impatiens are the most purchased flower in North America. Canadian Tire designed a tougher type, the Bounce Impatient, which is supposedly extra hearty.
I’m just going to cover my entire property in this – an all-in-one flower solution: seeds + fertilizer + coir #easy
Sprinkle around, flowers bloom at different times, and the coir changes colour when it’s time to water.
If I put this rule here, I won’t keep forgetting it:
Perennial – plant comes up each year, over and over
Annual – plant each year because 1 seed = 1 year
A quick swing break during the kids area, because zero interest there.
Boosting your own cell signal will be a trend.
And there’s a new in-house line of products you’ll start seeing on their shelves: FRANK.
Kind’ve like the Presidents Choice of Canadian Tire.
And if you’re at the Etobicoke, ON store, enquire about being driven in the Canadian Tire limo.
