Packaging and Delivery

Pros:

  • "The plant came well-packaged and with the pot we bought for it in the same box and packed in a way to protect both."
  • "Good healthy plant arrived which is always brilliant when ordering online. Very well packaged there's not even a bent leaf."
  • "Each delicately and clearly, lovingly packaged to keep them protected in transit."
  • "The plants arrived really quickly and were packed securely."
  • "My plant was delivered next day, it arrived in good condition."

Cons:

  • "The pot arrived smashed so completely it made me wonder what rough handling the poor plant in the same container had undergone."
  • "Plants were delivered on the 5th day, 24 hours late than promised. The box arrived all beaten up."
  • "Order came well packaged (only complaint being too much plastic packaging)."
  • "The plant wrapping was over the top, took me hours to unwrap things."
  • "Terrible service, I do not recommend. Every day they promise they will deliver the plants the following day, every day they reschedule."

Customer Service

Pros:

  • "I emailed the website and I was immediately refunded for the pot with apologies."
  • "Excellent service, had a slight problem with the order, was sorted within a day without issue and plant delivered two days later."
  • "Super fast delivery and the plants I ordered were lovely."

Cons:

  • "It is so frustrating as a customer with concerns when you are unable to pick up the phone and speak to someone."
  • "The customer service were not forthcoming with a refund I asked for."
  • "They didn't care. No response even after a week. And now some of my plants are dying from shock and being handled carelessly."
  • "0 customer service! I ordered a plant from them via B&Q and the wrong item arrived, I messaged the retailer, which is Houseplant.co.uk and I have not heard back for 1 week."
  • "I contacted Houseplant with a photograph and they offered me a new plant with no extra cost or a gift card. I chose to have another Pansy Orchid. It arrived on time and was as expected. Thank you Houseplant."

Plant Health and Condition

Pros:

  • "Good healthy plant arrived which is always brilliant when ordering online."
  • "The health of the plants received was spot on. Couldn’t be happier."
  • "Fantastic array of plants, and love that they have 'hard to find' ones."
  • "Plants were due Friday (all day delivery, no time specified). Took the day off work to stay home."
  • "Beautiful plants in good health. The service was quick and we anticipated their arrival within a couple of weeks."

Cons:

  • "The larger of the two was utterly bone dry dusty earth that looked like it has just come out of a fertiliser bag."
  • "Plant arrived with leaves dropping off in the packaging. Then over the next few days it steadily lost more & more until the plant was put in the compost bin."
  • "Purchased this string of pearls for a Christmas present and it arrived looking worse for wear, a lot of dead had to be cut off."
  • "A few brown marks on my umbrella plant but I am hoping it will recover healthily."
  • "It was incredibly infested with spider mites, to the point I could see them crawling up and down the stem and I had to throw it in the bin after a month or so to save the rest of my plant collection."
