Lovely strong plants ( your firm was recommended by my next-door neighbour, a much more experienced gardener than I am!) I was most impressed by your effective packaging.

Thank you for my sweetcorn delivery, which arrived a couple of days ago. Looks great, it’s for the grandchildren to see how it all works.
I just wanted to let you know how lovely the enclosed postcards and how fabulous your plant catalogue is. I’m 65 years old, an RHS member and a keen gardener of old. I have never come across such a beautiful, thoughtful way to receive a plant delivery. So very impressed and will certainly stay in touch and promote your services with pleasure.
