    My order was promptly fulfilled, and delivered earlier than had been anticipated. My 2 pots were packed very carefully and arrived unharmed. As expected, the plants are only just showing tiny green shoots, and I have every confidence that they will continue to thrive.

    I almost never do reviews but I felt this experience was worth comment. The website was easy to use, the plants were well packed, delivery was prompt and the plants were of great quality and size. Very impressed with the value and the whole experience.

    I was recommended to Proctors and placed my first order in April 2023. These arrived in perfect condition having been carefully packaged. I decided to wait to see how they developed before placing a further order. Living up in the Peak District where it is much wetter and cooler than urban areas they have excelled and still look strong and healthy so decided to place a further order some 3 months later. This plant along with two others that I had ordered were equally well packaged and all very healthy on delivery. I will certainly come back for more and most probably try to find and call at the nursery myself as I do feel and bit grumbly about packaging and delivery charges.

    Whilst I only have 5 green fingers, and just beyond a basic novice, this company gets 10 out of 10 from me.
