Green Thumb or Not: Plants for Life Bloom at Kmart
Retailer is first to launch a lifetime guarantee on trees, shrubs and perennials
HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., May 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Spring is in full bloom and Kmart is making it easier for Shop Your Way® members and customers heading outdoors to plant, prune and enjoy their yard. Today, the retailer announced Plants for Life, Guaranteed, a new program designed to allow customers the opportunity to purchase select trees, shrubs and perennial plants with confidence that they will last a lifetime – literally! Kmart is the first national retailer to devote a lifetime guarantee on plants, perfect for those looking to keep a well-maintained yard for years to come.
The offer is designed to complement Kmart's already popular garden departments among do-it-yourself gardeners. Qualifying plants at a Kmart lawn and garden center can be identified with a Plants for Life, Guaranteed tag and will automatically come with a lifetime guarantee upon purchase of the plant. For novice or even the most seasoned gardeners, keeping a plant thriving can prove challenging, so if any eligible plant dies, simply return it to a local Kmart store, along with the original receipt, and Kmart will replace it for free.*
"At Kmart, we dig gardening. We recognize that a properly landscaped yard is an extension of our living space and is essential to a home's appearance. Plants for Life, Guaranteed grows our outdoor offerings and remains a budget-friendly option for members looking to upgrade their garden," says Kelly Cook, Kmart chief marketing officer. "Our members can also continue to perfect their outdoor living spaces with Kmart's wide selection of outdoor products including furniture, décor and accessories."
For gardening gurus looking to get a start on sprucing up their outdoor yards, shoppers can enjoy great deals and deep savings right now at Kmart, like 25% off shrubs and small fruit, reg. $4.99-$18.99.**
