The plants were awful quality

The plants were awful quality, the lamiums were slimy black messes. I emailed with photos, got no response. £17 for 3 unusable plants. Better off at a garden centre, at least you can see what you’re buying.

Plants are in & settled in well

Plants are in & settled in well. Looking forward to seeing them doing their thing next summer.
The only down side was Royal Mail delivered them 24hrs later than expected & the hydrangea looked a bit sad. It has perked up now with watering & subsequent rain but I do wonder what the plants would have been like had this been during the hotter drier weather?

Good Afternoon

Thank you for your feedback.  We’re delighted to hear that the plants have settled in well and are already looking forward to seeing them thrive next Summer.

We’re sorry that the delivery was delayed by Royal Mail by 24 hours, and we completely understand your concern regarding the hydrangea arriving looking a little sad. Thankfully, it’s great to hear that it has perked up with some watering and rain.

We always take great care when preparing and dispatching our plants, but unfortunately, once they’re with the courier, delivery times can occasionally be outside of our control. We appreciate your point about how this could have affected the plants during hotter, drier weather, and we’ll certainly keep this in mind when reviewing our delivery arrangements.

Thank you again for your understanding and for taking the time to share your experience. We hope you enjoy watching your plants flourish over the coming season.

Kind Regards 
Melanie

Arrived well packaged considering it was three decent sized dahlias and courier had box on its side. Once opened, quite a few side shoots were damaged, but on the whole plants are survivable . At least I know next year the tubers will produce new growth from the base , which was the reason I took the chance to buy this variety so late in the season, anyway.

Good Afternoon

Thank you for your feedback. We’re pleased to hear that the dahlias arrived well packaged and that, despite the box being handled on its side by the courier, the plants are still generally healthy and survivable.

We’re sorry to hear that some of the side shoots were damaged during transit. Unfortunately, plants can sometimes experience movement and damage while being handled by couriers, despite being carefully packed.

As you mentioned, the tubers should produce fresh growth from the base, so we hope they establish well and give you plenty of new growth next season. Thank you for taking a chance on this variety so late in the season, and we hope you enjoy seeing it thrive in the years ahead.

Thank you again for your understanding but any concerns please do contact our Customer Services Team.

Kind Regards 
Melanie

The plug plants arrived, well packed and quite safe but thee plants looked a little frail.
After watering I planted them in small pots and they are looking better and healthier, hopefully that will continue.

Healthy Grums

I ordered 3 Geums beginning of June. I was worried, with the periods of hot weather, that the plants wouldn’t survive the transit. However, when I looked on my account, Hayloft stated that plants wouldn’t be dispatched during the hot weather conditions. I received healthy plants second week in September. Although I will not see the beauty of them this season, I look forward to next year’s display.

Thank you for your lovely feedback. We’re delighted to hear that your three Geums arrived healthy and in good condition. We completely understand your concerns about the hot weather, and we’re pleased that delaying dispatch helped ensure they travelled safely.
Although you may not see their full display this season, we’re sure they’ll reward you with a beautiful show next year. We hope you enjoy watching them grow and flourish!
