Build Your Garden Centre's Website, Click and Collect and Spring Rota with AI

Mythex builds the software a garden centre actually runs on: a website with a 'just arrived this week' page, click and collect for plants with a collection date, wreath and container workshops with capped places, and stock tracked by batch so bedding is marked down before it goes over. Describe the centre in chat, watch it build in a live preview, and publish when it looks right.

A business that lives by the weather and the season

Four spring weekends can make the year, and a cold snap moves them by a fortnight. Living stock loses value on the bench, so knowing what has sold through and what needs marking down matters more than in almost any other shop, yet that knowledge often sits in the manager's head. Then the year turns: furniture and barbecues, bulbs, Christmas trees, the grotto. Landscapers want monthly accounts, the cafe has its own hours, bulk bags of compost and gravel need delivering by area, and somebody has to water on the closed Monday in July.

• Plants tracked by batch and arrival date, not just by name
• Click and collect with a collection date for living stock
• Workshop and event places capped to the tables you have
• Bulk delivery priced by bag or loose load and by area
• Trade accounts for landscapers billed once a month
• Weekly sales compared with the same week last year

What you can build for garden centres

A site with a 'just arrived' page gardeners check on Friday

Seasonal highlights that change through the year, a short weekly list of what came in (first tomatoes, bare-root fruit trees, the Christmas tree delivery), opening hours that change by season with separate cafe hours, and bulk delivery details for soil, gravel and compost.

Build a website for my garden centre with a home page showing this season's highlights, a 'just arrived this week' page I can update from an admin screen with photos, seasonal opening hours plus cafe hours, a bulk delivery page for compost, topsoil and gravel by bag or loose load, and a contact form.

Click and collect that respects living stock

Plants are collection only by default with a collection date, hard goods, seeds and bulbs can be posted, and bulk bags are delivered by your own van with a charge by postcode area. Seasonal ranges switch on and off by month.

Create an online shop for a garden centre. Plants are click and collect only, with a collection date picker. Seeds, bulbs and tools can be delivered by post. Bulk bags of compost and gravel are delivered locally with a charge based on postcode area. Let me mark products as seasonal so they only appear in chosen months.

Wreath workshops and Santa slots without the December queue

Each session has a cap, materials included in the ticket so kits are prepped ahead, and family events like the grotto or pumpkin carving use timed entry with a door check-in list.

Build an events app for my garden centre with workshops like wreath making and container planting (each session capped at 16, materials included in the price) and timed-entry family events like Santa's grotto in 15-minute slots. Give staff a check-in list for each session on a phone.

Bench stock by batch, pot size and age

Each delivery is a batch with an arrival date and pot size, so you see which trays of bedding have been out longest. Losses are logged when a bench is cleared, and over a season that shows which varieties you always over-order.

Make an inventory app for a garden centre. Track plants by batch with variety, pot size, quantity and arrival date, flag batches older than three weeks for markdown, and record losses with a reason (died, damaged, past sale). Track hard goods and bulk bags as separate categories.

A rota where watering is a named job

Tills, yard, cafe and plant area rostered as separate roles, extra cover on spring weekends and bank holidays, and watering assigned to a person every day, including closed days.

Create a staff rota for my garden centre with roles for tills, yard, plant area and cafe. Let me add extra shifts for spring weekends and bank holidays, and include a daily watering duty that must be assigned to a named person every day of the week, even when we are closed.

This spring week against last spring week

Sales by category and week compared with the same week last year, sell-through on plant batches, and workshop and cafe takings beside plant sales, so you can tell late from behind.

Build a dashboard for my garden centre showing weekly sales by category (plants, hard goods, furniture, cafe, workshops) compared with the same week last year, and plant batch sell-through. Let me upload till exports as CSV.

Christmas trees reserved before the grower order

Open tree reservations in October with height bands and a collection date. By the time you place the grower order you know how many 5–6 ft Nordmanns are already spoken for. The same pattern works for seed potatoes in February and hanging baskets in April: a landing page, a reserve form, a date.

• Height bands and netting as options
• Collection date picker by weekend
• A count by size to order from

Trade customers and the local landscaper list

Landscapers collecting on account can quote their own job reference on each visit and get one monthly invoice. A directory of trusted local gardeners and tree surgeons answers the question staff hear every day and keeps those trades buying their materials from you.
