“At first I was quite excited to get two alocasia elephant ear from Hortology. My vision was to bring up a bit of green at work ( work with elderly patients. I received them during a week of cold of weather in London and both got frozen bites. I need to cut off all leaves and now I am trying to nursing them back to life, wish me luck.”

“Bought a plant pot for my boyfriend, he wanted 15inches diameter but I mistakenly got 15cm, when I got it, it was so lovely, I kept it for myself! I’ll keep looking for another one for him!”

“The plants are great quality and good value. I’m disappointed with the pots - the colour is less vibrant and different from all the website views, much less green and more grey. But they are good quality and the website and service was excellent, although way too much packaging for the pots was used.”

Hello Claire, Thank you for your order and review, I am sorry to hear you are disappointed with your Olive Green - Thies Plant pot. The vast majority of our pots are handmade and we do mention "handmade - every one is unique. Slight imperfections and variations may occur in colour, shape and size" on their page https://hortology.co.uk/collections/all/products/thies-plant-pot-olive-green Packaging, pots and transport create an interesting mix, whilst the packaging may seem excessive it is absolutely necesary to keep those pots intact during transit. We have spent a lot of time testing and developing our packaging to ensure this is optimal, both from a protective but also from an environmental perspective. Any less results in significantly higher damage rates during transit, resulting in more packaging, time and carbon to re deliver replacement items etc. We are happy to hear you value our quality, service, website and value and any questions please do let us know at info@hortology.co.uk Many thanks, Your Hortology Team

“Excellent service and my plant and pot arrived in great condition. Very helpful staff as I’d ordered a pot that was the wrong size for my plant and I was helped to change the pot and buy the correct size pot. I’d thoroughly recommend this company. Thank you”

“Bit disappointed with the satin pothos. It doesn't have roots and the stems were just planted loosely in the top of the soil. Would have expected better from an expensive company.”

Hello Hannah, Thank you for your order and review. After looking into this I can see your delivery was delayed by 3 days with APC which wont have helped plant health in such cold conditions. We have reached out directly for photos for us to resolve this for you. I can only apologise for the inconvenience caused. Many thanks, Your Hortology Team

“Great quality and service, plant arrived well packed and protected. Overnight service so no transportation issues as kept to a minimum. Contacted by Hortology as the pot I selected was the wrong size, corrected and order then dispatched, great experience and I am very grateful as any return is a painful process, which was averted by great service upfront.”
