crocus.co.uk

I have been using Crocus for a number of years now and have always been very happy with the service that I have received. The website is easy to use and to search (although sometimes if you don't know the exact botanical name of the plant it may not appear if you search for it.) The site has lots of interesting and useful articles on gardening and a search engine that allows you to look for plants for different soils. You can also buy gifts, garden furniture and tools. Delivery has always been prompt and plants always arrive well packaged. There is an option to split delivery if some plants are likely to be available sooner than others. After purchasing, I have not ...  Read the complete review

I have been using www.crocus.co.uk for a couple of years now and have found it a very good website to use. There is a very large selection of plants (with more unusual varities) including flowers, fruits and veggies, with decent sized plants, package deals on plug plants (under the tab "kitchen garden") or seeds if you wish. There are also sections for tools, equipment, outdoor furniture, gifts, flower delivery and small items for gifts. I primarily have used the website for the purchase of young fruit trees, pots, seeds and plug plants for veggies. Every time I have ordered something the plants have arrived on time, excellently packaged with no ...  Read the complete review

I am a bit of a gardening fanatic, and I love unusual plants, rather than the plants that you see in every chain garden centre going. I therefore order a lot of plants off the internet, as I can find a better variety. I have ordered several times from Crocus, and have been impressed each time with the quality of the plants. The Crocus website is easy to use, with plants laid out in categories with other similar plants, for example, Mediterranean plants, Ferns and Trees. There is also an A-Z plant finder if you already know which plant you are looking for. The selection of plants is good, with plenty of unusual varieties. There is plenty of ...  Read the complete review

Over the past few years I've become quite a keen gardener, experimenting with different plants and flowers as well as trying my hand at fruit and vegetable growing. It's been a very rewarding hobby and I always get a real buzz when I get to serve my own tomatoes with a salad for lunch or receive a compliment on my front garden displays. I stumbled upon Crocus.co.uk pretty much by accident, you see I'm a member of Lightspeed Research which is a survey website where you build up points and exchange them for vouchers etc... I'd built up a nice little amount of points and decided to see what rewards were in my points bracket, one of the sites listed was Crocus.co.uk and ...  Read the complete review

if you need some flowers to get somewhere on a particular day, steer well clear of this lot. i ordered a bunch of flowers online (on a tuesday), paying a premium to have them delivered the following saturday (the day before mother's day). however when my order confirmation email arrived it read: your order was received on 16 mar 2004 12:59:53 and consists of : 1 pisces bouquet at £29.95 each = £29.95 total your credit card has now been debited and your order will be delivered on tuesday 16th march to... now clearly there is no point whatsoever delivering my mum's flowers 5 days before mothers day... so i ...  Read the complete review
