A Supplier with Quality Items at Affordable Prices
The items I bought were of good quality. They were Ericaceous Compost, Seed & Cutting Compost(ready for next year) Multipurpose Compost, Diamond Lattice Hanging Basket Gates(12) and two Rainbow Planters. All these at an affordable price. I ordered them on the 9/8/26 and received them on the 13/8/26, which I was well impressed with.

Good overall
Ordered 5 plants - 4 were great and are thriving - 1 not so good didn't look as healthy from teh start and looks like it's almost dead already. Guess its not their fault and this can happen. They were less than half price so still wasn't disappointed.
