  • Yvonne B Verified Buyer
    Package arrived beautifully sealed plants inside in great condition
  • Peter S Verified Buyer
    Bought a Chamaecyparis obtusa 'Fernspray Gold'. Excellent plant. Well packaged and delivered. No issues. So pleased I bought a second one.
  • Alan R Verified Buyer
    I ordered 2 climbers and shrub mail order. They came with a week and I was kept infomed by email. The care in packaging was outstanding in stiff cardboard box with a firm carboard tray and well wrapped and supported plants. All plants were in good condition (especially considering the drought) - the only damage was done by me in unravelling the stems of one of the climbers. Fully recommend and will do again.
  • Jayne R Verified Buyer

  • Aidan M Verified Buyer
    Three plants arrived swiftly and in very good health - two escallonias and a ceratostigma. A very good size too, clearly well looked after. Great selection of plants elsewhere in the online catalogue too
  • Sue S Verified Buyer
    I ordered a varigated buddleia as a present. It arrived very quickly and looked to be in very good condition. I'm very impressed with the service.
  • Terrie D Verified Buyer
