"The shrubs on my last order established themselves well and am hoping to see some substantial growth this year. They look very healthy despite the very hard winter we suffered."

"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"
