Pricing is good. Communication is very poor. Quoted 24hr dispatch but took over 7 days to send. Package arrived in poor condition, via Evri, and plants were very difficult to get out of pots... See more

Closed my account
I am so fed up with misleading delivery dates and quality of plants being sent out . Packaging not sufficient to cope with delays in postage services . I have closed my account.

Not the best plants that I've received one plant had come out of the plastic container and very dry planted into pots I think it might survive

Order delayed twice…
The items I ordered have been delayed twice and now its not appropriate to receive them so late hence one star. Would have been better to show items out of stock on website. Refund requested.

Took 5 days for seeds to arrive. This was my very first order. phoned on 4th day incase lost as order said dispatched within 24 hrs. Customer service woman was rude and basically they will be there when there. Won't be ordering anything again

Plants still not arrived after two weeks
I ordered plants on 3 July and it’s now the 17th and still no delivery or updates on such. Emailed company about it and no reply. Super poor

Only given 4 fist plant arrived well packed and in good condition. Second plant was supposed to be honeysuckle and a sunflower was sent. Plant was not in great condition and box bashed.Evri -usual poor service. Customer service were excellent in sorting error and dispatched another honeysuckle unfortunately delivery is delayed Evri again so not expecting a very healthy plant in this weather when it finally arrives

Great customer service
Pleased to be able to order some tomato seeds for next year at a special price. When an item was missing from my order, customer service was helpful and promptly sent the missing seeds.

Bought some plants only to find out after purchase they don't come until who knows when, tried to follow up but you can't get in touch anywhere. Will never buy from them online again. Still no plants and zero way to find any updates or ask for a refund.

Very disappointed all plants broken as not secured in box. Dry as bone and pot bound what little soil that we was in the pots just dust at the bottom of the box. If using evri you need to ensure packed more securely as had obviously been upside down on more than one occasion. I am hoping they will survive but don't hold out much hope. Date shows packed 10th but not received till 15th so would recommend being packed with some sort of moisture retentive material

Disappointed in the quality of the plant
Unimpressed with the size and condition of the Heucherella I have just received. I expected a much healthier plant for £17.99
