"100% happy. the plant (Musa Basjoo) was of a really good size, packaging brilliant, in fact when i got home and saw the size of the box i knew that the plant would be good. been let down and disapointed with Ebay sales and you open a small package to find a twig or tiny sapling. Will most certainly use you again and not Ebay. Many Thanks"

"I look forward to the printed catalogue also as it still has its place, whilst drinking tea in the garden and it's nice to be away from the computer.. The website is easily useable and looks good. The Chelsea win did encourage me to buy from you as it shows a passion for horticulture whereas other internet companies may have good websites but mediocre offerings!"
