📦Order Processing times

The time I need to prepare an order for shipping varies, usually 0-2 working days.

My working days are Monday - Friday.

📦Delay Dispatch

If you would like to place an order and receive it at a later date e.g. for birthday, wedding, event etc. Just drop us a message or leave a note on your order and I will hold your order back.

📦Tracking

Once orders have been dispatched you will receive an email containing the tracking information on all compatible services e.g. Couriers & Royal Mail 24 & 48.

Please note that Royal Mail standard 1st & 2nd class services currently don’t receive full tracking updates.

If you haven’t received your order within 7 working days from the dispatch email, please get in touch with your name and order number.

📦Customs and import taxes for orders outside of Great Britain mainland

If you are based outside of Great Britain mainland (England, Wales, Scotland) when ordering plants, please be aware of your country’s import regulations. Many countries E.g. Northern Ireland / EU require documents such as phytosanitary certificates and potential border inspections, which we are unable to supply at the moment due to cost. If you place an order containing plants or soil and it gets confiscated, receives charges is delayed or is damaged, we sadly cannot provide refunds at this current time.

We are not responsible for failed deliveries e.g. if you are not in to accept your parcel, loss or damage in safe place or from extending / rearranging delivery window and if an incorrect address has been provided. However, we can attempt contact with couriers to in specific situations for further parcel updates.
