Written by the company
Here at The Ideal Garden, we've been selling high-quality gardening and landscaping products to customers all over the country for years. Our family-run business developed from our landscaping firm which has been going since the 1980s. We discovered some great landscaping products over the years and decided they were so good that we would start supplying them ourselves. Since then, the online shop side of the business has grown massively - but we still run everything from our central office and storage centre at Calves Lane Farm, maintaining the close-knit family-run style of doing business.

Gravel Grids
Did a fair bit of research into gravel grids for my garden project. Ideal Garden Shop came back as the best value for money by far. Delivery was fast and easy.

Thank you, Chris. You made the right choice!
Returning customer after several years.
I purchased some garden screens and trellises from this company around 5 years ago. Very happy with the service I received from them back then and can safely say the same thing with this purchase. I was after a heavy plant trough with a nice decorative back panel to match my garden decor and I found that they had one left in stock so I took the opportunity of purchasing it. It was extremely well packaged and the delivery was very straightforward. I am extremely happy with the product and service and would happily recommend them. Thank you.

Edging Strips
My lawn is at a higher level to the adjacent boarder, and part of the lawn is subsiding. I used the edging strips to retain the lawn. The strips are very easy to install and provide a nice neat edge.

Thank you, Stephen. We are pleased to hear this and thank you for your review!
A good experience
I ordered a small amount of the edging to test it's suitability for the task. It was delivered very quickly after the customer service person contacted me after they realised I had made a mistake on the delivery preferences. The quality of the edging is very good. It was surprisingly easy install and looks good. I plan to order more soon to compleat the project.
