Please remember except for the collection area and Nursery Office, the Nursery and the other sites are production facilities and are not arranged for the convenience of visitors. For example on each site there are moving vehicles, hazardous machinery and equipment, substances hazardous to health and some surfaces unsuitable for some footwear. The risk from these hazards is, of course, controlled but visitors who are not familiar with the work environment may be at greater risk than operators and other staff who are.
And so during your visit we politely ask you to comply with the following rules, both for your own safety and for other business reasons:-
1. If travelling by car please park in the visitors parking area.
2. Children must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
Delivery Charges

A delivery charge of £9.95 is for all single tree orders. £11.40 if more than one tree. £15.00-£25.00 charge for larger orders except in the case of the Espalier Fans and Step Over trained trees where this charge between £49.35 - £90.30 depending on the delivery location. Local deliveries to GU and KT postcodes are charged at £34.80
The lower postal rates range from £3.48 - £4.95, will be applied to smaller orders of the lighter plants like Bare Root (Not Potted) currants, raspberries, gooseberries, blackberries, asparagus and strawberries although this does depend on the quantity you order.

Due to GB leaving the EU we now have no delivery options outside of the United Kingdom available to us due to plant health export restrictions. From 1 January 2021, all regulated plants and plant products exported from England, Scotland or Wales to the EU will be subject to EU import controls in line with goods exported from the rest of the world. A phytosanitary (health) certificate (PC) would need to be obtained by us for each order and the cost for this is too expensive for each individual order.
Deliveries
All orders are despatched in one delivery. If your order contains both bare root and container grown plants then we can only despatch the whole order when all plants are ready.

Your guarantee of quality.
We supply the highest quality trees and plants and pack them with great care. In the unlikely event that you are not satisfied or damage occurs in transit, please contact us within 2 days of receipt.
We will also refund or replace (Customer to pay for the delivery cost) any trees or plants that die in the first spring/summer after they have been supplied as long as we are satisfied that they have been treated and planted properly. You only have to pay for the delivery of the replacement. This guarantee does not include any plants damaged due to lack of watering or lack of proper horticultural care on your part. In particular, plants will not be replaced if the plant care guidelines, sent out with the order, have not been followed. We cannot be responsible for any airborne pests and diseases that are out of our control.
If you have a claim we ask that you send us good quality photographs of the dead plants in the ground - at least one close-up of the dead plants themselves, showing the leaves, stems and where they go into the soil. At least one broader shots of the planting area, showing all of the dead plants.
We will use these photographs to help work out what went wrong, so we can advise if appropriate to ensure that your replacements don't die too!
Orders are taken on the understanding that we charge your account at the time when the order is taken even though it may not be possible to supply the order until a later date. You can cancel your order at any time and you are entitled to a full refund.
All deliveries are made with an overnight courier. If someone is at the delivery address during the day it helps. All bare root plants are despatched from November to April and are subject to rigorous quality tests at every stage of growth and from lifting to packing. Roots are soaked and covered before shipping which means that each plant reaches you in prime condition for growing away in the spring. Plants are packed in a strong cardboard box and shipped by overnight courier.
