"I recently ordered, and received, a Nandina and Mahonia and I would just like to say thank you. The shrubs were in beautiful condition and very well packaged, something which is often lacking when ordering on line. This was the first time I have ordered from Burncoose Nurseries and I would not hesitate in ordering again and will also recommend you to my family and friends. Many thanks "
