Lowe’s SpringFest deals
Lowe’s kicked off its SpringFest (a Spring Black Friday) with thousands of spring deals today, making it a good window to buy mulch, planters and outdoor power tools. (9to5toys.com) Standouts include bags of mulch priced at $2 (or five for $10) and an EGO 800 Series 21-inch battery mower listed at $649 (about $100 off), with the promotional window running through April 22.

Lowe’s just opened one of the few spring sales that works like a mini Black Friday: a two-week burst of discounts on yard staples, grills, patio gear, and outdoor tools, with the current SpringFest window ending on April 22, 2026. The sale page says it covers mulch, flowers, fertilizer, and outdoor equipment across stores and online. (lowes.com) The scale is bigger than a normal weekend promo. DealNews says SpringFest includes more than 20,000 discounted items, and myLowe’s Rewards members can generally get free shipping on orders over $35, though large-item delivery fees can still apply. (dealnews.com) The headline bargain is the kind of thing that gets people into the garden aisle fast: Sta-Green premium red mulch is advertised at 5 bags for $10, which works out to $2 a bag. BlackFriday.com’s scan shows that price in the current ad, and DealNews lists it as 50% off. (blackfriday.com) (dealnews.com) That matters because mulch is one of those low-cost items people buy in volume, not one at a time. A yard refresh can easily mean 10 to 20 bags, so the difference between $2 and $4 per bag is the difference between a $20 run and a $40 to $80 run. (dealnews.com) The ad is also packed with spring-planting deals meant to fill a cart quickly. BlackFriday.com’s current scan shows select 1-pint annuals at 5 for $10, select 2-quart perennials at 2 for $8, Bonnie plants at 3 for $12, and 1.50-gallon Boston fern hanging baskets at 2 for $20. (blackfriday.com) Lowe’s is pairing those small-ticket garden deals with a second lane of discounts on bigger outdoor purchases. The same ad scan shows a Charbroil Performance 4-burner gas grill at $199, down from $279, and a Kobalt 24-volt handheld blower at $79, down from $129. (blackfriday.com) The mower deal getting the most attention is an EGO 800 Series 21-inch self-propelled battery mower at $649, which DealNews says is $100 off. That puts a premium battery mower into the same sale conversation as mulch and flowers, which is exactly how these spring events turn a $10 errand into a $649 equipment purchase. (dealnews.com) Battery mowers are a real category shift for home improvement chains because they are quieter, start with a button, and skip gasoline storage. Lowe’s current EGO mower listings lean hard into that pitch, highlighting cordless operation and battery-powered lawn care across dozens of models. (lowes.com) There is one catch in the fine print: not every low sticker price is equally easy to get home. DealNews says standard shipping is generally free over $35, but appliances and oversized items may still trigger delivery charges, which makes in-store pickup the cleaner option for things like mowers, grills, and bulk yard supplies. (dealnews.com) So the practical read on SpringFest is pretty simple. If the shopping list is consumables like mulch, flowers, trash bags, and soil, the ad is built for stock-up runs; if the list includes a mower, blower, or grill, Lowe’s is using the same April 9 to April 22 window to pull bigger seasonal purchases forward before Memorial Day sales even start.
