Customer Reviews
Nothing wrong with the product itself and the delivery was prompt and as expected
However the flowers arrived in a box bashed to smitherines... The soil was everywhere.
Since it was a gift for my mum and I was at her house when it arrived I just accepted the delivery because the plant itself looked OK at least. Just in desperate need of immediate attention. Very embarrassing and wouldn't consider ordering again if this is the state things are going to arrive in.
I have 3 Scarborough Fair roses in a border with silver birch, hydrangeas and geraniums. These roses compliment the the wildlife friendly scheme perfectly, with the delicare flowers providing food for pollinators. All of my "Austin" roses are healthy and robust. I would say every garden should have quality a rose!
