Brand History & Trademark Analysis

Webbs has been registered in the UK for seeds and horticultural products since the company was founded in Stourbridge, West Midlands in 1870. The Webb & Sons seed catalogue was a fixture of British gardening for over a century. Captain Matthew Webb, the company founder's relative, was famously the first person to swim the English Channel in 1875, though the seed company's trademark predates that feat.

Historical Background

Webbs of Wychbold was established in Stourbridge, Worcestershire in 1870 as a seed and horticultural merchant. The company published one of the most comprehensive seed and plant catalogues in Victorian Britain. The modern Webbs of Wychbold garden centre in Wychbold, Worcestershire trades separately from Webb's Wonder — the classic British lettuce variety whose name is a registered trademark in its own right, filed by a different company. The Webbs garden centre brand is now owned by an independent family business and holds UK trademark registrations covering retail garden services.
