Plants were healthy and delivered in just a few days . All good experience from start to finish . Great website ----- good info and timely updates on purchase. I have a 23 year old garden and am by the sea with a windy wet climate so gardening is a challenge . Never very cold but always quite wet .
Hydrangeas and Berberis along with a handful of other shrubs and perennials survive nicely here so my garden has always brought me many compliments . My recent purchases from you will of course further enhance my garden.
Dead,rotten and unrecognisable plants sent!!!
I have received my order and I have never seen anything like this before: dead, rotten, mouldy and unrecognisable plants. This must be some joke or I don’t even know what to call it. There is no way, you can plant them. I just want my money back and someone to collect that stuff, as I am not wasting more money to send those plants back. I already paid more than 120 euro.
Delivery and packaging excellent.
Quality of the plants could be much better.

Thank you for your feedback, our plants are 100% guarantee once planted they will develop for many years. if you have any problem during the 2-month warranty period, please come back to us, of course.
Ordered lavender tree to be delivered to my father for Father’s Day. It looked nothing like the picture on the website. Was very small and skinny with no flowers. Had to re-pot and are hoping will improve. Picture on website very misleading.

Reasonable option if not a driver.
Delivery a bit slow. Plants in good condition & as described. Should have ordered more compost.. 10 kg bag is tiny. Unfortunately delivery involves a LOT of packaging including plastic. A plastic free option would be a good idea.

Some plants arrived damaged, poor customer service
Some plants arrived damaged, plants were packed under pots! customer service dismissive. Won’t be going back. Please note if ordering from Ireland that the company is not Irish and your plants will be shipped from Holland in boxes. Soil was bone dry on most plants. The amount of cardboard used in the packaging was shameful also, enough to make a tree with.

The photos we received showed plants in much better condition than your email. As a reminder, these photos were seen by the quality control manager and our manager. We offered you a 20 % discount on these plants and 2 months warranty on these products. If you read some of the comments on this page, you'll see that a lot of customers say: "arrived in time with recycled packaging ...very pleasant".

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

Hello,
Thank you for your feedback.
With the heat and the 4-day transit it is important to soak the plants and leave them in the shade in the fresh air before planting them in the morning or evening in the cool. Do not worry we offer 2 month guarantee.

We advertise plants cultivated outdoor all year along. We send the majority of our plants as naturally growing young plants.
These young and robust plants will recover well after planting and sprout anew.
Hosta roots are always sent dry so as not to develop disease or mildew they need to be soaked in water prior to plant them
Pennisteum are ornamental grasses that turn to straw in autumn and winter. In late spring, the plant becomes an ornamental grass again, as we can see from your photos.
The rosebush shows no signs of damage, just like the other items.

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.

Poor service
Purchased tree a week ago. Shipped 5 days ago but still not delivered. DPD tracking is a disaster - continuously being re-routed. Item has been boxed and in transit for over a week with no water. Will be interesting to see condition when it arrives (If ever).

We have checked in our system that Lilium Oriental arrived damaged and the sum of €23.80 has been refunded on an order of €126.85, one star is very poorly rated and graded as the rest will develop normally.

The hydrangea you received develops its foliage on the new year's growth and not on the old wood. Plant please what you have received the order is guaranteed 2 months. If you don't see any growth, please contact our customer service department before the end of the 2-month growth guarantee period with photos of the planted products they will be replace (if we have them in stock or refund). Shipping cost to Ireland is about €14.95 and goes directly to DPD courier we do not own money with shipping.

Venus fly trap
I got the Venus fly trap, but it came very poor condition, kind of half death.
I hope I can bring back to life ☹️
I'll never buy online flower again.

The heads of carnivorous flowers live for a few days and then die. This is part of the plant's natural cycle, not the result of buying it on the net. Carnivorous flower heads who turn black need to be removed as the plant grows.
