My plants will be supplied well rooted and ready for immediate planting out.  My plants are hard grown i.e. grown outside as soon as they have developed a strong enough root system to survive.  This makes them stronger, healthier & more weather tolerant plants than those which have been grown on rapidly in artificial conditions in a greenhouse or polytunnel.

TERMS AND CONDITIONS OF THE SALE

Please note: Photographs are for illustrative purposes only (your plants may not be at the same stage as on the photograph i.e. some of my plants are herbaceous and naturally die back during the Autumn/Winter: meaning that plants sent during the winter months are in many cases dormant roots with little or no foliage - this is normal may not be in flower depending on their flowering season). If you require a photograph prior to posting please ask for this when ordering and we will be happy to send you one.

RETURNS / REFUND POLICY

Plants received damaged will be replaced provided they are returned in original packing, prior to returning items we will require photographic proof of damage of both plant and packaging.

We will presume that you are happy with your purchase unless we hear otherwise within 7 days of purchase. We cannot entertain complaints regarding plants weeks/months after purchase. Please do not purchase if you are unhappy with any of these terms and conditions.
