Disappointing Hydrangea

The hydrangea plant I ordered, which was quite expensive £49.99, was very disappointing in the shape of the plant and only had one flower on it. I won't be ordering from them again.

The plants were so so good compared to ones from a neighbours recommended supplier, I was absolutely thrilled. I have potted them up into larger pots and kept them watered instead of allowing them to get lost and dried up in the borders .....superb plants - many many thanks

Plants arrived in a very poor state

Plants arrived in a very poor state, I took photos and sent evidence, to be fair another three plants arrived in the same state, I didn't reach out again.

Very small 9cm pot lavender

I ordered 9cm pot lavender. The lavender plants were tiny, no more than 5-6cm tall and not ready to plant out. 4/6 have not survived though they were planted in appropriate soil and watered appropriately. I ordered 9cm pot herbs from Fyne herbs, 5 times as big on arrival for the same price, and they have thrived. I have now replaced the lavender with much larger plants for the same price from Homebase:((

Reply from Crocus.co.uk Ltd

Thanks for your feedback. We’re really sorry the 9cm lavender didn’t meet your expectations and that several plants failed; our 9cm pots are younger plants, but they should still establish well, so please contact us so we can review what happened and see what we can do to help.

Really useful

I needed something to clear the dry grass from the footpath and verge: the herbaceous sickle made it so much easier.

Good quality plants

Everything well packed and healthy, just a bit disappointed that the gaura had almost stopped flowering when they arrived in July.

Reply from Crocus.co.uk Ltd

Thanks, Elspeth – I’m glad to hear everything arrived healthy and well packed, though I’m sorry the gaura weren’t in fuller flower by July. Flowering can vary a bit with timing and conditions, but if you’d like us to review anything further, please contact our customer service team.

Delivery superb, plants arrive in good condition
Because we are of a age, without transport it’s an ideal way for use to buy plants

Sad looking plant which needs “monitoring”

Ordered £50+ worth of plants. Most are doing okay except for one, a Geranium, which arrived looking very sad. It had two stems, one of which had been chopped of all its leaves, and the other which had 4 leaves on it. I did email Crocus to complain, attaching a photo in situ where I had planted it but they replied saying that it looked well rooted and healthy. To be fair they did reply and say it looked like I was looking after it well, and that it was covered by a guarantee so they will monitor it but it still looks very weedy and unhealthy almost a month later, . I paid £12.99 for this small plant so I think I will stick to garden centres in future rather than ordering online and ending up with a plant which needs ongoing “monitoring” rather than it just growing and looking lovely.

Thanks for your review, Alison. I'm sorry the geranium has been such a disappointment; if it’s still looking weak after a month, please contact us again with up‑to‑date photos and your order number so our team can reassess and arrange a replacement or voucher under the guarantee where appropriate.
