I have to agree with other reviewers that the qualityof the Crocus website is excellent and definitely helped me plan what to plant on a couple of new border, and i spent over £400 with Crocus on a couple of orders.
The ordering and delivery side of things went well and the plants looked reasonable when they arrived in February 2008.
However, I reckon I have had at least a 50% loss rate - a coiuple of plants failed to thrive the first summer and since then many more have not re-appeared t ...- Read Guest's review (124 words)

Absolutely disgusted with crocus. I have never written a review on anything before but feel so strongly about the service and quality of plants that I feel I have to warn other potential customers. Plants were supposed to be available within a week of ordering. They arrived two and a half weeks later and only after me phoning and asking where my order was. And as other people have said customer services very rude and abrupt. I was so shocked at the quality of the plants. Ordered 4 pestemon plant ...- Read Karen Abbott's review (185 words)

I initially started to use Crocus to send flowers on speacial occasions and was attracted to the company because of the great website which I found very clear and easy to use. The bouquet selection was different from their competitors and I didn't mind paying a little bit extra for something which looked a little more special. I then used Crocus to also buy some plants - lemon tree, Daphne and this year a selction of other garden plants. I have always found the service quite good. On one occasio ...- Read speakout's review (301 words)

I have had a terrible experience with Crocus, they have not gotten back to me regarding my order for over a week despite emails and phone calls. Every time I spoke to anyone they were extremely rude, and all I wanted to do was find out if I could add another plant to my order. I have tried to make a complaint and been told they do not take complaints.that said I cancelled my order, but I am concerned that if I don't get my money refunded I don't know what I'll do because I don't have anyway to g ...- Read rintay's review (126 words)

I've been very pleased with my 2 orders from Crocus this summer - I have obviously seen a different side to this company than some of the other reviewers here - I wonder if it depends more on the supplier/distributor chain used by the company in each area - though ultimately Croucs needs to take responsibility for everything.The website and range of products / plants is good and I got some good discounts. I made two orders. Both arrived on time or a little early and were left in the right locati ...- Read sirmod's review (239 words)

I waited three weeks to receive my order from www.crocus.co.uk and when it finally arrived the plants were almost dead. Customer Services seemed very slow to address the problem and I eventually received a refund, six weeks after my order was placed.- Read PlantBoy's review (58 words)

I was impressed by the website although I only looked at it because I had received a 10% off voucher. Having waited nearly two months for a cherry tree, I was disgusted to receive a specimen with very few leaves which had clearly been half eaten by pests. It was also diseased. It was so bad that my gardener refused to plant it. My previous delivery came badly packed and one shrub was squashed. I will never use them again.- Read suzieedwards's review (100 words)

I have used Crocus on a number of occasions since 2005, primarily for ordering plants that were 'out of season' at my local gardening centres. However, I have also used their 'design' service, where they prepare a garden/border plan for you.
1. Plants: The size of plants supplied do certainly not relate to the litre size of the pot. My experience has shown that the size/maturity of the plants supplied are way down on what you would expect to get from your garden centre. Beware & compare! They'r ...- Read DrKlien's review (301 words)

I discovered the Crocus website after browsing UK Style gardens and was immediately impressed by the quality, knowledge and selection available. Prices were very reasonable too so I placed my first order for 2 x bay standards and 2 x faux lead planters - I even go a free plant as my order was over £30! - The website said delivery would be "within 1 week". I didn't receive notification of despatch so on day 7 called their help line to check the status of my order and was told rather sternl ...- Read Sc4r1ett's review (230 words)
