I bought these plants and all arrived looking great.
It's been so wet here I only managed to plant the budelias.
All the others are sitting in a dish quite happily on my coffee table. They have grown since being there.
Hopefully plant them in this week
Excellent service and prompt delivery. Thank you.
No communication from the courier when they were on their way for the first delivery as a result the delivery was delayed and the seedling tips got burnt
I received my plants in excellent condition the day after they dispatched it and planted it immediately. Using the kei appel as a thorny barrier at the edge of my property. They are very hardy and evergreen which makes for a very nice hedge. We live in a very dry and hot area and the young plants have not even wilted. I can highly recommend it as well as the service from Hedgesonline.
