Retailer Feedback

Dream on!

They have some rare Tricyrtis too, hence my familiarity with them.

Might be better to have separate threads for each supplier ... easier for folk to comment on them then, and perhaps a more useful resource longer term? If the supplier is already in the Directory:then a comment there would centralise any feedback (good or bad ) I have had Penstemon...

I've never failed to get a response from a company when they receive a summons through the Small Claims Court Correction to above:- one of the largest power companies ignored the summons so I got judgement and sent the bailiffs into their head office. That got a response!

Just wanted to say how impressed I am constantly with this business. It's local to me which obviously helps but their own products, prices and services are just brilliant. If you're close to them then definitely give them a look. No, I am not affiliated with them!

That's one of the reasons they are in Jersey

I had lovely strong plants from here, personal service, we had lots of email exchanges, always answered very promptly, and all growing away strongly..

You didn't used to work for the CIA did you, Loofah???

Premier also sell on Amazon, but P&P is 80p there, rather than 49p on ebay, but still cheaper than T&M's £1.95. And although T&M have P&P free promotions, they now do this by means of a code which can't be used in conjunction with other offer codes, so the good old days of getting promotional...

I use a mixture of suppliers, but I do like Simply Seed, good delivery and very reasonable prices I think.GG

Looks a lot more competitive now, especially http://www.simplygro.co.uk/compact-courgette-4174-p.asp Compact plants are not only suitable for small raised beds and containers, but also for planting in smaller poly tunnels. P.S. The £1.99 P&P still remains rather high compared to other seed...

Thanks Derbyshire.

Use code TWBP15YZ in the Order Code box. I've used it as detailed here

One of my local indies is as cheap as chips and it doesn't sell place mats. Or potpourri. or chimineas. Or over-priced jam. Or children's books. Or sponge cakes. I could go on. But I won't.

Van Meuwen has refunded the cost of my two diseased trees plus the one they failed to send. my summer bulbs miraculously turned up the next day. hurrah . To replace my Van Meuwen order I ordered three replacement fruit trees from gardens4you on the Thursday before bank holiday and they turned up...

Very pretty!!

To add insult to injury one was snapped off at the base, had already had a telephone conversation, and, sent a very strongly worded email.

FWIW many of the seeds I buy are in packets of "enough seeds to grow some plants" (rather than a crop!) and assuming they aren't incredibly rare then the packet price is £1.50-ish regardless. I buy lots of seeds with 5 or 10 seeds (packet price stays the same), and very few non-standard things...

Of all the couriers I have used . Hermes is the best. Could it be because our driver is a Woman? if she gets no reply she has the nouse to put parcels in the shed with out being told, those ones that don't need a signature.

Anyone else buy from here? They have a very good selection of rooted plants, the ones I received last year were a nice size and very healthy so I have just ordered some more.Val
