Healthy plants

The plants were healthy on receipt and are thriving. Delivery was as scheduled and the order process was easy.
The only issue was with the courier treatment of my order, it was far from acceptable. I informed Crocus of the issue and they appreciated the update.
I have every intention of ordering from Crocus in the future.

Plants arrived looking very tired and rather dehydrated so my African daisies were put in a water bath overnight to rehydrate. One of the plants has already died and the others are just holding on. Extreme weather conditions hasn’t helped but I do keep them fed and watered when necessary. I don’t particularly like the colour which is a dark purple but choices were very limited. I wouldn’t buy these again and only did so as I had pots to fill.

Customer service non existent

The plants are fine their delivery via DHL is a problem. When you contact their customer services the response leaves a lot to be desired and shows they have not even bothered to read what you sent them. If you want a site with nice plants then fine but be prepared for terrible customer service and delivery problems

Good quality product and delivered on time and very well packed.

It would be sensible and helpful if the website showed what size base fits the pots - we ordered what appeared to be the right size and then had to re-order a bigger size but overall we are very happy. The pots are well made and look great.
