Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the high quality of the products, noting that plants arrive healthy, well-shaped, and often exceed expectations. Many people highlight the excellent delivery service, emphasizing promptness, secure packaging, and effective communication regarding order status and tracking. The overall ordering process is frequently described as easy and professional, with many consumers expressing satisfaction with the service received. However, some customers experienced issues with incorrect products, specifically receiving a different fruit variety than ordered, and felt the company was initially unwilling to accept responsibility for the mistake. A few other people also felt that the packaging for their plants was not adequate, resulting in damaged leaves or dislodged compost upon arrival.

Good quality rootstock

Good quality rootstock, well packed and reasonably priced. Due to weather, these plants arrived late so I am not sure if they will get going in time to graft this year. I'll try anyway.

Wrong plums, bad customer service

Bought a Herman's plum tree which went on to produce yellow cooking plums not the lovely purple Herman's as expected. After a lot of "we don't grow/sell yellow plum trees" and "it's not our fault" they eventually agree to replace the tree. The replacement tree has the gone on to produce the same yellow fruits. Blackmoor, despite evidence of these two trees sold by them producing yellow fruit, have been unwilling to accept responsibility. They are unable to supply the correct tree and have offered a refund for the original price of a tree.This does not cover the cost of a replacement tree from elsewhere nor does it reflect the time and effort take in planting and looking after these trees.

Hi Stephen,

Thank you for getting in touch and sharing your experience with us. I understand your frustration with the situation involving the Herman's plum tree, and I appreciate your patience throughout this process.

I want to clarify that we have offered a full refund for the original price of the tree. While I understand that this may not cover the cost of a replacement tree from another source or the time and effort you have invested in caring for these trees, we hope this gesture demonstrates our commitment to addressing your concerns.

If you have any further questions or need assistance, please don't hesitate to reach out. We're here to help and ensure a satisfactory resolution.

Best regards,

Customer Service Email sent 23rd January 2026

Thank you for your email and for bringing this issue to our attention once again.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and confusion this has caused you and your customer. We understand how frustrating it must be to receive incorrect fruit trees, especially after having experienced the same issue twice.

Regarding the yellow plums, I must clarify that we have not stocked a yellow plum variety for over 25 years. We produce around 50 Herman Plum trees each year, and we have not received any feedback indicating that the fruit produced is yellow. This situation is indeed puzzling.

We will investigate further to identify the source of the discrepancy. In the meantime, if you have any additional information or documentation that could help us in our investigation, please feel free to share it with us.

Once again, we apologize for any inconvenience this has caused you and your customer.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.
