crocus.co.uk Reviews

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 ...  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 ...  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 ...  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 ...  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 ...  Read the complete review

My first experience of Crocus came when my father requested a Japanese Maple for Christmas 2001. Not being one to trudge round garden centres or lug a tree around in my car, I did an online search for garden centres, and lo and behold, up popped Crocus. The celeb gardener Alan Titchmarsh has a hand in this site, which gives it a certain ...  Read the complete review

As a keen gardener, I am rarely able to find what I am looking for at garden centres near me and am disappointed at the quality of plants on show. I came to hear about Crocus.co.uk after watching Ground Force - Alan Titchmarsh recommends them so that was good enough for me. The site is excellent with great variety of plants so you can ...  Read the complete review

Other reviews have adequately summarised the pros of Crocus, a site which is easy on the eye, sensibly arranged, and hugely inspiring - these guys know their plants. Their planting combination suggestions in particular are a real boon for the would-be garden planner faced with just too many plants to consider. But what happens when you actually ...  Read the complete review

As a complete ameteur gardener who is about to move to a new home with lovely 'beds' I am at present scouring all the gardening magazines and websites I can lay my hands on. Crocus.co.uk bills itself as the UK's biggest gardening web site. Sounded promising. Also the fact that if you don't know your bulb from your elbow the ...  Read the complete review

Crocus.co.uk describes itself as the UK's biggest gardening web site but as with all such claims it is difficult to know whether it is or not. It is a commercial site which offers a wide range of plants, gardening goods and some services but it also has some useful information for gardeners. The site as a whole is attractive and easy to use ...  Read the complete review
