-Website had suffix ".ie" (Rep. Of Ireland domain) Plants shipped from Netherlands -Business doesn't appear to have more than a token physical address to claim .ie. This is entirely within the law but personally I find this practice dishonest. -Flowers picked were listed as good for shaded areas, upon arrival packaging stated they were suitable for direct sun. -Upon arrival one plant was in reasonable condition with some slight damage, to be expected shipping overseas ( and why I chose a supposed Irish website to prevent this) and the other plant was badly crumpled into the same packaging. Again, nothing illegal about this practice, however, I will avoid in future. This is entirely my own experience.

broken and dried plants

Products were fery dry and grafting on 1 of trees was split.

Delivery and packaging excellent. Quality of the plants could be much better.

What was pictured and what arrived are two different things !

I had a large bare root order that completely died, not one plant. I soaked and followed instructions, watered in with compost. By the time I realized that it was a lost cause, the "warranty" was no longer applicable. I have taken advantage of the groupings discount- for hedges and lavender - only about 3 of each batch thrive, at least 4 lavender arrived dead, and 3 out of 10 hedge plants.

The plants were quite dehydrated & wilted when they arrived. Considering I had spent €75 I was not impressed. I soaked them in water straight away & planted them in my front garden. Time will tell how they do. Really hoping they are strong plants that will thrive. Thank you

Lavendar plants arrived withered and in poor shape. I have repotted the plants in fresh compost and hope at least one will recover. Lesson learned. I have ordered live plants from Mr Middleton and tgey arrived in tip top shape and condition. Just saying.

Plants were not in a good condition when they arrived!

the order takes a while to be process which is not stated in the delivery time, shipping was expensive and slow, plants arrived at the significantly smaller side of the size scale provided on the website. I would definitely not order again.

Order date: 20/5/23... Arrived 5 days Ireland ...very dry ...leaves withered...2 fell off immediately ...first aid given for 24 hours then planted out in beautiful irish sunshine...other shrubs have arrived with green leaves and not dry...would like replacement as not cheap with postage...over 20 euros

The plant was sick when it arrived. Full of brown spots. Trying to recover it with neem oil treatment now. The rest of the products were fine.

This was a €40 gift for a new home. Had I known it would be sooo much smaller than pictured I would have bought flowers. No not impressed with the sales technique ;( I did write to customer service but no response yet, instead I'm asked to write a review....

The tricolour plant I ordered turned out to be three small pods presumably comprising the whole 'plant'. I'll have to wait and see how they turn out. I was disappointed in the size for the price too.

Quality Packaging was OK, had some damage to 1 plants leaves another plant had completely came out of its pot, this could also be due to the shipping company used. Package was left wrong way up and we'll shaken about, plant quality is great and exactly as described

My order arrived packed into a single box a day later than expected. One of the plants (the Fatsia Japonica) was already slightly damaged and this must have happened at packaging time. Hope it will recover with some necessary "surgery" and some TLC. Was a bit disappointed but due to my age, acquired disabilities and lack of transport, I will need to rely on online gardening websites in the future.

Quick delivery. Of 5 hydrangeas ordered, 3 looked quite robust but 2 were just short stems with only 1 or 2 leaves. Time will tell if they take successfully or not.

It will be a miracle if the plants survive they arrived in such poor condition.
