Delivery
Delivery & Packaging Information
We are currently dispatching orders within 6 working days from the day we receive an order, with many orders being dispatched sooner.
Each week, plants are selected from the nursery and carefully prepared for dispatch. Plants are individually wrapped and securely packed to ensure they arrive in the best possible condition. We use environmentally friendly packaging wherever possible, including straw, newspaper and recycled boxes.
Orders are not dispatched on Fridays to reduce the risk of plants remaining in transit over the weekend.
Dispatch & Tracking
You will receive an email once your order has been processed and again once it has been dispatched.
We use a DPD 24-hour tracked delivery service for most plant orders. Most plant orders are usually delivered the next day after dispatch, although this is not guaranteed.
DPD will normally provide tracking updates, delivery notifications, and estimated one-hour delivery time slots via email and/or SMS. We strongly recommend using the DPD App, which allows you to track your order and update delivery instructions directly with the courier.
Customers are responsible for monitoring their delivery communications and ensuring that contact details provided at checkout are accurate.
Non-plant orders may be sent using Royal Mail Tracked 48.
Product Availability
Many plants are available for immediate dispatch within the current cycle, while others may be pre-ordered for future delivery dates.
Where necessary, we may split orders at our discretion at no additional charge.
