Products
If you receive a product that is defective, please contact us within 14 days informing us of the problem. You can return it within 28 days to get either a replacement or a refund. Some products are covered by a manufacturer’s warranty, if this is the case, please contact the manufacturer directly.
Plants
If you receive a plant that you believe is in bad condition, contact us immediately, but no later than 14 days after its arrival. We request that you email us a photograph of the plant so that our plant experts can review it. Bear in mind that plants look different depending on what time of year it is. If you choose deciduous shrub in the winter, it’s going to turn up looking pretty bare. It doesn’t mean there’s anything wrong with it, just that it’s out of season and will perk up when the weather does. Many perennial plants won’t even show above the soil level in a pot during the winter. However, if you are concerned, contact us with a photograph of the plant within 14 days of delivery and we will be happy for our plant experts to assess whether there is a problem.
Cancellation
To cancel an order which you have not yet received, please contact us with details of the order you are cancelling.

We will not pay the costs of returning an item to us.
Until we receive the goods you are returning, they are your responsibility. If the item has been damaged, used or is not returned in its original packaging, we reserve the right to withhold a percentage of the refund value if the item needs to be reduced in price for resale.
