Excellent service

Excellent service, delivery was very quick and the plants were well packaged. They look very healthy considering autumn isn't the best time to be buying them.

My excellent auriculas plants arrived today.

My auriculas arrived safely today, this was exactly the day they were expected. The auriculas were packed with great care and every plant arrived in tip-top condition. They are beautiful plants; absolutely top quality auriculas at this time of the year. As always, Drointon Nurseries have supplied first class plants and an excellent carrier service. I would recommend them to anyone who wishes to grow show quality auriculas.
Drointon Nurseries are always willing to provide very helpful advice on how to care for their excellent plants.
Many thanks

Excellent service beautiful plants

Excellent service beautiful plants. The best wrapping I have seen and a note telling you how to care for the plants you ordered. Not a vague generic note but one that actually deals with that plant and says the soil has been vine weavil treated.

Many thanks Janice. We'll make sure you are on the list for a copy of the new catalogue next spring but we will also be doing an autumn website update which will add quite a few 'new from us' cultivars. We'll let you know when this is available.
