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.

Dissappointed, Frustrated and Out of Pocket.

I only gave Garden4you one star because I had to to in order to be able to write a review. They do NOT deserve even one star. I ordered 4 x Liriodendron tulipifera trees with the intention of growing 4 x beautiful park trees. I got 4 x rubbish trees, not in any way straight or upright; all with their leaders cut off and all in a hugely potbound condition with completely contorted roots. Despite several amicable but fruitless emails Garden4you are refusing to suitably address the situation they have created. I can return the rubbish to them but at my personal cost which they will not refund and as the return cost is not disimilar to my original payment this is a pointless exercise. I will never buy from them again and I certainly woul;d never ever recommends them to anybody else. This could have been so nice an experience all round and wasn't.

Confusing. I still don't know what have I bought!

I've bought this as on the web site its having "Tarragon Artemisia Dracunculus). The package is confusing. It saying Russian tarragon but the latin name is for French tarragon. Russian tarragon (Artemisia dracunculoides) is very closely related to French tarragon (Artemisia Dracunculus) but has no flavor. The Russian species is larger, coarser, and has no culinary merit.

We can see on our website that you have ordered item A06427, which is Russian Tarragon. The leaves can be used fresh or dried for salads, pickles, vinegar, and soups. It can also be used with chicken and fish dishes, all of which are part of the description on our website.

Shipping took to long to start, not to deliver but to start. Order wasn't shipped until a week after and took too long for the cost. I can order items from China for less money and free shipping. Suggest they read their reviews also

As we previously informed you, it is preferable to group your purchases before sending the order and payment, as once the orders arrive in our system, it will not be possible to group them together. Everything is automated, and we ship to 22 countries in Europe. Unfortunately, you had the opportunity to cancel your two orders and make a single one, but the request did not arrive in time. Please note that we do not profit from the shipping fees, as we contribute €3 per shipment.

2 weeks ago I bought flowers from you, 2 small ones are ok, but the large one for 40 euros started to fall after 2 days, the shoots have no roots, it's as if someone just stuck them in the ground, I'm disappointed because this particular flower does not require any special treatment

As we have mentioned in our numerous emails, the Persimmon Diospyros Kaki you received is completely normal for the season and had absolutely nothing to do with being placed on the tiling in your house at room temperature. Our plants are cultivated outdoors in nurseries and deserve better than that. The persimmon should have been planted long ago, as stated in our growth guarantee. You are well aware that persimmons do not have leaves or buds in winter, as you ordered it in mid-January when there was frost and snow in the following days, which we regret particularly. You also know that Persimmon Diospyros have few roots and this did not prevent the plant from growing, on the contrary. We have attempted in vain to assist you and respond to you in a professional manner. You refused our proposition to return the plant in order to obtain a full refund. Unfortunately, your comment demonstrates a lack of listening on your part and a willingness to harm our business, which we deeply regret.

All our plants are nursery plants cultivated outdoor all year around. We has the last week -6ºC and -10ºC at night and hardy winds. During the winter period, Mahonia media 'Winter Sun' may exhibit some staining or discoloration on its leaves, and this is considered normal you should not be worry. There are a few reasons why this can occur: Mahonia media 'Winter Sun' is a hardy evergreen shrub, but exposure to cold winter temperatures can still cause stress. The cold weather can lead to desiccation (drying out) of the leaves and result in discoloration. In winter, the sunlight levels are generally lower, and plants may not photosynthesize as actively. This reduced photosynthesis can lead to changes in leaf color. As with many evergreen plants, Mahonia leaves have a lifespan, and older leaves may naturally start to show signs of aging, including discoloration. Other environmental factors, such as wind exposure or fluctuations in temperature, can contribute to leaf discoloration. The discoloration is limited to a few leaves and the overall health of the plant appears good, it is likely just a natural response to winter conditions. However, once planted if you observe widespread discoloration or if the plant's health is a concern, just come back to us because the plant is fully guaranteed until May 1, 2024.

The flowers delivered were delivered on time and as expected. They look great and were very well received. The only issue I had was that I was given an option to add in a free card/note, which I did - I filled in a full message and signed it off. Unfortunately, our recipient was unable to find this note and had no idea who the plants were from. In the end I had to ask if she had received the delivery and advise they were from me. Not ideal when the delivery was intended as a gift.

Our system always asks you at the time of ordering whether the order is a gift. Unfortunately no message and no gift card (paying) have been selected for this order we have checked.

Received my plants as per order and in good condition (well watered) and well packaged as they were in transit for 5 days because of the bank holiday weekend! Shipping took longer than expected as I was expecting it from Ireland and couldn't find my tracking information using the DPD IE website. A small improvement would be to include the NL DPD website along with tracking number in the order summary confirmation. Good communication when I had a query about my order.

Great site. Easy to use , quick responses.

Easy to use website, quick responses and quick delivery. Packages very well. The plants were bought as a gift and instructions for 'planting out' were forwarded which was great to receive but as someone who doesn't have a huge amount of knowledge about plants it would have been good to receive a little 'how to care for your plant' card as I'm responsible for keeping them alive until they're gifted. 😳😵‍💫 Overall very pleased.

Plants mostly good quality, one batch had small amount of root growth, but have just planted them and they may be fine. Tracking system does not really work, plants arrived quite quickly but no information about timing at all on tracking system. Timing of delivery Netherlands to Ireland often better than from Irish suppliers.
