Thank you for your review. Due to the large amount of orders and items sometimes being ready at different times we do sometimes send orders out in separate packages and we apologise if this caused any inconvenience. We are pleased to hear that you were happy with the quality of bulbs when they arrived and we are confident that you will be happy with the display they produce. Kind Regards, Dobies

Plants tipped out of pots

I am sorry if 2 of your plants appear to have been tipped upside down during transit despite the appropriate labelling. I would have expected the plants to have been packed correctly on despatch so can only assume they were damaged during transit. If there are any problems with the plants please let us know. Your comments are appreciated and thank you for taking the time to leave your review.

Today received this reply: 02/11/2021 11:07 Emily (Merchant): Thank you for your feedback. We can see that the Daphne Eternal Fragrence were delivered to you on the 28th September. We hope these arrived to you in good condition as we would expect. If you have any issues with this delivery please contact our customer services team directly and they will be more than happy to resolve any issues for you. We are confident that the Daphne Pink fragrance potted plants will be a gorgeous addition to your garden. I repotted them and wait to see if they have been damaged; growth is slow right now.

I am sorry to hear of your concerns with the plants you have received and you have contacted Yodel regarding the delivery. As mentioned in our previous correspondence I would have expected the plants to have been appropriately packed so any damage may have happened during transit. At this time of year the plants will not be putting on much growth so you will need to allow some more time. If there are any problems with their development please let our customer service team know on 0333 2405933.
