Retailer Feedback

I agree about Frosts, lovely garden centre and good healthy plants, we have bought lots over the years. If you live in the Leicestershire/Rutland area then I really recommend Gates garden centre.

Homebase are useless for having stock they dont deliver, but that's OK as if you go to buy in person the store will be deserted.

Thank you all for your encouraging replies. Now I'll be waiting for spring to see how it grows. The pot is not a big one at the moment, just about 30 cm wide, but slowly slowly I am planning to get the largest pot for it and make it the main attraction of our Close. We had 2 beautiful large...

Thanks Landimad. It's Ornamental Trees I am interested in and Armandii has kindly given me information about them.

Wow, like these peeps.Only ordered about a couple of days ago and BOOM They are here. Plenty of variety and good numbers for the costing. between 125 seeds and 4200 seeds at 99p a hit with P&P on top of £2.50 not complaining. Nicely packaged and await the results from sowing's done later.

You're most welcome

thank you all for your help. I think the markdavies website doesn't work very well and possibly email is never checked and many payments come in making them hard to trace but Ebay worked, I received fast feedback and it seems seeds are shipped. Most of them I already got faster from other...

I've had a couple off taylor , good healthy plants really happy with mine

Our Wyevale has closed down. I hadn't noticed as, although its not that far away, its not in the direction I usually travel.We already have a Dobbies. I actually quite like it. It has an excellent cafe with good wifi. Before committing to buying anything I get the chance to do research whilst...

I have only ever seen round ones of these things and I think they are pretty successful. They have a pump in the bottom with the water and it sprays around the stems which are hanging down in the basket affairs and the roots form as the water washes over them all the time is how I understand...

I would not touch T&M after my experiences with them

I've used Rumwoods and Peter Beales. Both reliable. Most nurseries pot up bare root stocks as the new season gets close. Such recently potted roses are best left until June or later before planting to open ground. This allows time for roots to bond with the potting compost.

@roders , please let me know how your Begonia bag method goes . I pot mine up and bring them into a warm room , they take 8 to 22 days to show with about a 70-80% success rate.

I’m so glad I joined this forum everyone has been really friendly and love that people like to have a a laugh, social media has become so uptight it’s a refreshing change to come on here

@alana totally agree about them having the money especially when it’s nearly 8 months till an order is sent out . Having said that works well for me as I would probably forget and overspend on more plants

ordered some banana ,Carex testacea and some blue fescue seeds Sunday night and just received them today. Extreamly happy with the packaging and printed instructions that came with each type of seed. Will deffo be using this company again as very quick dispatch and email to update me they had...

I have used the Seedaholic website for information , vast reference to seeds and germination. Bought from them for a few years , for some reason nothing this year. They are a superb supplier . These small seed suppliers like Seedaholic , Premier-Seeds etc , really are competing with the big...

@sandymac, Hi Alex, glad it's sorted but if others are still chasing well it just goes to show how they treat customers and the things they're sending out.

I've moved posts to a new thread
