Beautifully fresh flowers

So easy to order online & my friend said they were beautiful. I saw them a couple of days later & I was so happy, they were as fresh as the day they'd been delivered even in this heat, very good value for money too.

I’m really unhappy with the purchase

I’m really unhappy with the purchase. Not only did the first delivery get cancelled, when the stock did get delivered one of the rolls was torn straight through the middle. Aside from that, I was told I was being delivered a freshly cut batch and the turf is sold as premium quality turf but it certainly doesn’t look like a premium quality. I’ve laid the turf, it’s 3 or 4 different shades of green, with large sections dried out despite having a good soak of water. For the price you pay I would’ve expected much better.

Dear Stefan,

Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that you've experienced an issue with your turf.

I can see that our Customer Service team has been in touch and is working to resolve this for you. We have also referred the matter to our supplier.

Kind Regards
