Terms And Conditions

Peace of mind guarantee

We want you to be delighted with the products you buy from us, which is why we guarantee that we fully comply with your rights to return items under the Distance Selling Regulations. Please read our Returns policy for full information.

All sizes are overall and measurements are approximate although we do try to ensure they are as accurate as possible.

Verbal representations.
We’re here to help, and we’re always happy to do our best to give advice over the phone. However, if the information you require is critical to your decision as to whether to buy or not, you must get it in writing if you might need to rely on it to resolve any potential misunderstandings.

Plants Terms and Conditions

We make every effort to ensure that all our plants are of the highest quality and are fully inspected prior to dispatch. If however you feel that the plant received is not in reasonable condition then please contact us IMMEDIATELY. Please bear in mind the following:

• Is it in season? Plants will look different depending on the time of year. Out of season plants may be very bare in winter periods.
• The images on the site are generally of a mature plant; what you ordered may have been a plug. A plug is a developing plant, nurtured through the early growth stages in a small container of nutrient rich compost/potting soil, ready to be ‘plugged’ into your garden. Please check your order confirmation if at all unsure.
• Where plants are supplied in pots, the pot is included in the plant’s height specification.

It’s important that you take an image of plant as soon as possible so there is no doubt as to its condition when it was received. We may request the plant is returned to us for further investigation so we can establish the cause of the problem.

Not Planting Until The Weekend?

Should you receive your plants but have no plans to transplant within 24 hours then please bear in mind they are ‘Live’. Please ensure you open the packaging, water the plant and expose it to daylight until you are ready to plant. See care instructions for individual details.

Please note:
We are unable to deliver any plants to the Channel Islands, Isle of Man, Republic of Ireland or countries outside of the UK
