"Thank you for the two Schizostylis plants which arrived safely this morning. As always, perfectly packed. I was glad to have the opportunity to speak to Stephen and have his guidance on suitable varieties – one advantage of being an “old” customer – I should say and “ancient” one. Best wishes. "

"I wanted you to know that I am delighted with the plants that arrived last week, so beautifully packed. I am particularly pleased to have my old friend Azalea ledifolia ‘Alba’ again as the original petered out after 43 years, having been moved twice. I now understand better the cost of post and packing. "

"You always seem to deliver quickly and you are a pleasure to deal with. We are an old Cornish family emigrated to the Highlands, so it is good to see a Cornish company up with or exceeding the rest of them. Kernow 4 ever etc........ "
