We want to ensure that your plants arrive in great condition so we send by overnight courier service. Plants will never be sent on a Friday as we don’t want the risk of them being in transit over the weekend. Saturday delivery service is available please contact us for details.

Packaging

The environment is important to us, we have tried to remove the use of plastics as much as possible and use only renewable, recyclable and reusable products. We do not use any plastic in our packaging unless its to protect a stem with flower and we will then use plastic bottles so that it’s their second use. All our paper waste is shredded for packaging too, anything we can do to reduce our carbon footprint and help the planet is done.

We aim to deliver within the quoted time frame, but delivery times are not guaranteed.

Unpacking

Carefully remove plants from the box, check all packaging to make sure you haven’t missed any and water immediately as they will be thirsty. Most plants can be planted out immediately if the conditions are suitable, however some may need to be kept in a glasshouse or cold frame until late spring/early summer or until the risk of frost has passed. Bare-root plants can be planted immediately if conditions are suitable, if not, they can be potted up until planting is possible.

If you are not satisfied with your order please contact us immediately either by phone or email, if by email it is a good idea to send us photographs of your plants. Keep all packaging, We will do our best to sort things out immediately.

Click & Collect

Click and collect is available at all of the shows and events that we will be attending this year. Select the show or event you would like to collect your plants from the dropdown at the checkout stage. There is no charge for this service.
