What You Will Receive

You will receive strong healthy UK-grown plug plants, carefully packed for posting.

Plants are labelled (see information slip inside the box lid) and arrive with their UK plant passport.

Dispatch & Packaging - Free P&P

Plants are posted carefully packaged to protect them during transit. Orders are sent using Royal Mail Tracked 48 with free UK postage included.

Where possible, we use letterbox-friendly packaging sizes to help avoid missed deliveries and delays in the postal system.

As plants are living items, size and appearance may vary slightly depending on the stage of the growing season.

About Our Plants

All plants are grown by us here in the UK on our small Market Garden in Derbyshire from seed or propagation stock — we do not import plants or buy in plug plants for resale.

We carefully pack orders using recycled and recyclable packaging wherever possible. Apart from a small amount of parcel tape and repurposed thin plastic bags used to protect roots in transit, our packaging is paper and card-based and biodegradable.
