Prompt delivery. Plants were smaller than I anticipated but healthy
Plants arrived in a good condition. Ordering and delivery was smooth and easy. Will definitely be ordering from hedges online again.
My order was delivered faster than I thought, all my 20 plants were in a perfect condition they are in the soil as we speak and growing well I can see that they will make a good hedge. Thank you
I was very impressed with the standard of service. Plants were securely packed and in a remarkably good condition. Thanks a lot!
I planted my Num-nums a week ago in extreme heat conditions and they don't even look as if they have been transplanted. They have actually made new leaves. I love them as not only are they evergreen but they also have lovely sweet smelling flowers and you can even eat the fruit if necessary. I have older plants in my garden and they can get by with very little water, extremely hot and windy conditions and any soil type (mine is clay). So overall worth every cent spent on them. Great service from hedgesonline too!
