Plants delivered in very poor state

Plants delivered in very poor state. Dried out and most leaves had dropped off. Very disappointing as they were a present.

Terrible delivery service

Terrible delivery service. First order arrived so late, plants were non existent only dry earth. Got a replacement that never even turned up. 3rd attempt of the original order, I asked to use a different delivery method as it was obvious the plants were taking far too long to arrive, but was told that was not possible as it was the warehouse that dealt with that. They eventually arrived and the plants were dead again. What is going on? Delivery used to be fast and reliable.

I'm truly sorry to hear about the repeated issues with your plant deliveries and the extremely poor condition of the plants you received. This is certainly not the standard we aim for, and I understand your frustration. Please contact us with your order number so we can investigate this thoroughly and try to put things right.

Superb service!

Dispite a hiccup with the courier (external) the plants arrived in superb condition. Excellent communication, brilliant packaging to protect the plants and superb prices, my first order won't be my last.
Having used several large plant suppliers over the years and lost countless plants in transit, this has shown that it is possible to get quality plants delivered.
1st class service from Crocus, thank you!

Strong healthy plants. Excellent price

I bought six strong and healthy cotoneaster plants in a half price special offer. They arrived promptly, well-packaged and I was able very easily to change the delivery day
Crocus is my go-to place for plants and other gardening needs.
