Some
comments from our customers |
| We
despatch plants all over the world and it it is always
heartening to get feedback from clients that have been
thrilled with their parcel of plants. Here, we have
just noted down a few of the fun comments we have had
over the years.

Hopefully reading them
will give you confidence to order from us!
"I
was desperate for the hosta "Brother Ronald" for
my cousin who is a monk in Lindisfarne Abbey - so pleased
you had it in stock - he's tending it in the garden every
day and it's doing really well....all the other monks are
reading your brochure over breakfast!"
Mary Farthing - Freshbrook, Swindon
"You
took me by surprise when you asked which hosta? - I thought
hosta was just one plant - I was rather overwhelmed by your
catalogue, but pulled myself together very quickly and ordered
a few from you. My husband thinks its going to be another
of my fads - but I've got news for him - I'm ordering more
of these hostas - now where is his cheque book?............"
Maisie Roberts - Chiswick, London
"I
was disappointed to receive your catalogue today and discover
that whilst there are many hostas named after people like
June, Ronald etc, you do not appear to stock one with my name.
Kindly take me off your mailing list until you can supply
me with an appropriately named plant."
Ernie Hutchins - Ramsbottom
"My
wife has persuaded me to write following our visit to you
back in the summer. Your garden is a treasure and to see so
many beautiful hostas growing was a marvellous experience
and we did enjoy our visit despite the fact that Tim's directions
to leave you to go home resulted in a 38 mile detour"
How can the managing director of your business be so utterly
hopeless with maps and directions?" Kindly train him
better next time.
Terry Gumbly - Birmingham
"I
couldn't quite believe it when my parcel arrived so quickly,
all the way from Devon to Scotland in 18 hours! I will certainly
be ordering from you again"
Mrs Sue Boncaith - The Highlands
"You
delivered the plants on the day I wished and they arrived
in perfect condition....shouldn't be surprised, but I am having
dealt with many mail order companies for many years!"
"I will certainly be ordering from you again - perhaps
you could train some of the larger companies on how to treat
your customers. However, having just read the web site, don't
let Tim give me directions when I come and visit you in the
summer!"
Ria Friend - Liverpool
"We
came on the way back from The Eden Project and were thrilled
to see so many hostas!!!! Sorry I reversed over your Car Park
sign when I left - my wife says I must get my eyes checked
out......and seeing the damage I caused I certainly will....I
hope to see you again when I have the new specs....in the
meantime I hope you have managed to replace the sign with
a new one and that it didn't cost too much money - we better
make sure we continue to buy our hostas from you now.......
David Thurly - Hereford
"I'd
just like to thank you for your prompt and efficient delivery
and the hostas arrived beautifully packed up and labelled".
Caroline Elmitt
"Just to thank you for the parcel which arrived Sat
a.m. and was left as requested in the back porch. The bare
roots looked particularly healthy when I potted them up this
morning ....it is an exciting time of year!"
