“Beautiful pot just as described, in fact it was nicer than I thought it was going to be. Delivery was fast and it was packed amazingly well with recyclable packaging. Well done Horology will definitely use you again.”

“Fantastic company, amazing quality plants and pots. Really went the extra mile for me as they noticed one of my pots was to small for one of the plants I'd ordered. Highly recommended.”

“Bought several of the easy-to-care-for and hard-to-kill selection. Really good choice available. Plants arrived quickly and were well packaged. They are lovely, healthy specimens.”

“I bought two large planters - one to keep and one as a Christmas present. The one to keep is fine but the one bought as a present was disappointing. The rim is quite rough in places and looks unfinished. It wasn't damaged in the post - it appears to have been made that way. It is not consistent with the photo on the website in which the rim looks uneven but intact and properly finished. Both planters came in huge cardboard boxes, 50% of which was empty space. Surely a company specialising in planters can sources boxes that fit its products? You asked 'Did Hortology make my life greener". Sadly, no - it didn't.”

Hi there I am sorry to hear you are disappointed with one of your planters. I have checked our customer contact and cannot find any communication from you on this, so it is difficult to comment specifically. However I can see that one order was for an Iris plant pot, which does have an unfinished rim effect and is noted in the product description as such? We have a wide variety of boxes suitable for very small to very large planters. The boxes are specifically designed for us and our packaging is made from recycled material. The size of the box needs to be significantly larger than the fragile ceramic pots to mitigate the risk of damage in transit. We have spent a lot of time testing and developing our packaging to ensure this is optimal, both from a protective but also an environmental perspective. Any less and the breakage rate increases significantly, resulting in more packaging to resend a new item to our customer and more fuel to deliver etc. I hope this helps. Kind regards Sandra

“I bought this plant for my mum. She absolutely loves it. It's really strong and healthy. I am thinking of getting one for myself if I can find the room. I would definitely recommend hortology if this is the quality of plant they offer.”

“The size measurements are wrong”

Hi Svitlana Please would you let us know a little more about this issue. We measure all of our pots before adding them to the website. Due to the handmade nature of the pots there may be slight variations in size but not significant. We also have a size guide that explains the various measurements for each of our products: https://hortology.co.uk/pages/plant-pot-size-guide-for-houseplants For example the Koen on your order has External Diameter x Height 23 x 20cm but the opening is only 17cm. If you would email us at info@hortology.co.uk we will be able to look into this further for you. Thank you Your Hortology Team

“I have just made my third order with them as I can’t get enough of their selection! Prices are reasonable too not like other online nurseries! Plants always arrive safely packaged (with not too much plastic which is a bonus!) Only negative would be that my snake plant arrived with 2 mealy bugs - Exactly why you should always isolate new plants! Overall very happy with the quality and service delivered!”
