Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Plant condition looks excellent as was the packaging. Only time will tell me the quality of the blooms. So as of now it's four stars optimistically becoming five next year!

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

Delivery communication could have been a little better from yourselves but the plants arrived and were nice and healthy looking.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars

The order was dispatched and received a few days after order. I was somewhat disappointed in the size (small) of the poenie given the cost. Some of the potting compost was in the bottom of the box and... See more

Elsa Sass not thriving

I ordered an Elsa Sass peony in December I was happy to pay more for a mature plant (5 years) that this company states will flower in the first year. It arrived promptly although it looked damp i planted it out following primrose instructions which were good.
I have many peony’s which all have healthy eyes including a young 2 year old peony bought this year from another company that is doing so much better than the Elsa Sass bought from you.
I very much doubt that it will flower this year, I suppose there is time for more eyes to appear but I doubt that will happen.
I have sent a message to Primrose Hall using the on line support but due to there being no evidence of me sending it and no reply on a previous occasion along with no contact number I have come straight to Trust pilot.
Primrose hall please tell me where to send a photo as evidence. So that I can get a refund or you can replace my Elsa Sass for a decent 5 year plant that is thriving.
If I receive a happy out come I’ll take down my review

I have now heard back from Primrose Hall and for the time being I am happy with with the agreement of reviewing my Elsa Sass later in the season!

Lovely peony selection

Comprehensive selection of peonies of all kinds. The website is easy to use and has full details of every plant. The variety I chose 'Cora Louise' photo could perhaps have shown the full flower rather than a detail.
The mature plant arrived in a large pot and already showing a bud, so I am looking forward hopefully to flowers in the summer.

No communication at all - Nothing !

No confirmation of order other than the charge appearing . No details as when delivery expected . We were about to leave for a months vacation - I emailed asking for delivery date . No response .
The item actually was delivered the day prior to flying out . It's planted so unable to comment on quality . Would not purchase from this seller again .

Frustrating Supplier

Dealing with this company is a nightmare !!
They is no way of contacting them by phone just email and then you wait forever if at all for a reply.
I recently wanted to order some peonies and wanted some advice, wanted to speak to a human being !!, no chance.
There web site talks about open days but I have now
been on there mailing list for many months and have heard nothing. Was hoping it would have been in the flowering season to help choose new colours etc.

Terrible customer service

Asked for a VAT receipt and they never sent one. Have followed up and they don't reply. Terrible customer service. Better buy from other RHS rated suppliers

peony spring fertiliser

Ordered peony spring fertiliser which was in stock , took them over a week to despatch the item and a week (6days) to deliver !! Even though I had to paid £9.95 for 24 hour delivery !! contacted company several times but they have never even bothered to respond , will NOT be using them again, perhaps they should not have an on-line shop as they can’t seem to run it professionally.
