MAIL ORDER

All mail order prices include the post and packing  (£1.50 per litre volume) so the price you see is the price you pay, for full details please go to the Nuts & Bolts button. Large orders may be sent in multiple packages. Mainland Great Britain only at the moment I'm afraid, anywhere else by request.

EXPLANATIONS

USDA zones are zones of average minimum winter temperatures, for example any plant marked with a number 7 or less, is pretty well much hardy throughout the UK, zone 8 is hardy but some plants may need some winter protection in areas of cold or exposure, zone 9 need winter protection unless being grown in a very sheltered area, by the coast or in an urban area (see pollution can be useful!!!), zone 10 total winter protection of some sort
