“My three delphinium plants arrived very promptly, and thanks to very careful packing they had sustained no damage at all in transit. The plants are well grown healthy, and much larger than I was expecting. Perfect Plants indeed.

“Excellent plants that arrived perfectly packaged. Great communication too! There was an unavailable plant that I was refunded for, and given the option to have replacement for another. I was skeptical ordering plants online, but it made the whole experience very enjoyable. I will be recommending and using again.”

“I have bought from Perfect Plants before and all was well but this year the courier let them down, when they finally arrived they were still well packaged and moist, Melanie at Perfect Plants did all she could to sort things out as the courier claimed he had broken down! Otherwise, I would have given them 5 stars.”
