2 boxes of dead broken beaten up plants, no response from Marshalls, seriously out of pocket and no sweetcorn for me this year. Shameful, don’t waste your time or money!!

Again damaged on delievery. Came in a back bag with apart from my address no other signs or making on it! In the back bag there was a crushed box which had writing on it say live plants but as I said this was in a back bag and couldn`t be seen. The plants were all over the place but I have managed to bring them back from the brink

Absolutely rubbish, it arrived damaged, nevertheless it was very small and not worth the money. I’ve contacted customer service but had no reply as of yet

Too much wrong with this order detailed elsewhere. Suffice to say. Having ordered 12 plants at the beginning of the year. I ended up with 6. Ok I got a refund but won’t have the chance of a sweetcorn crop this summer. So disappointing

1st batch were not dispatched but Marshalls notified me and they were sent asap. Not in brilliant condition when they arrived - a delivery problem I think. They arrived some time after dispatch. Lost 3 the rest seem to be thriving now

Probably a good product, but delivery killed all plamts

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Pre-ordered these month ago after recent years of poor seed germination at home, and I'm not alone on the allotment with this, so letting someone else grow sweetcorn into plug plants was a winner, and at a good price. I wasn't impressed by the delivery (Evri, I think) who clearly just threw the box into the van, as some plants were dislodged from their modules in the box. That said, they were salvageable and potted on after getting a good drink. With several seeds having been planted in each module, most of which germinated, I had more sweetcorn than I ordered after separation and potting on. Always good to have extras as backups. They're romping away in the polytunnel and already twice their original size, and soon ready to harden off before planting outside. Corn on the cob awaits.
