I ordered two lilies and some accessories from this company. They are fairly local to me and because of this, the owner delivered my products to me the same day! The lilies are home grown and looked amazingly healthy and she was able to give me some advice on my pond as well. Very reasonable prices too. I know that she will not be able to deliver personally to everyone, but it shows the customer service ethos that because she could - she did. Very happy indeed. Will definitely shop here as my first choice for aquatic plants etc.

Have not been for a few years, BUT if a pond plant exists this place will have it. When I created my wildlife pond, they had literally every native plant I had on my list, in Michelin Star lingo, 'worth a special trip'.
