Great experience

Great experience from start to end. I work for the Essex Wildlife Trust Charity and Muddy Trowel were more than happy to donate us some beautifully potted Christmas trees, would highly recommend.

Great experience

Great experience, timely delivery and the delivery guy was very helpful and kind.
The Christmas tree is still alive after 3 weeks and looking good :)
The baubles were fabulous, but they were out of stock so quickly, I wish they get more in stock so I can buy more for next year...

Thanks for leaving this lovely review, and for the feedback on the baubles - first time we tried them this year and some were definitely more popular than others! And thanks for the positive feedback on our driver - they have done an amazing job delivering trees this year.

Hi Barry, thanks for the review and for chatting to us about the tree. Hopefully now the tree has got used to the heat change from outside to inside, it is perking up a little. Have a lovely Christmas.

Most of the bulbs arrived in good shape, but not all of them. The packaging was very nice and I’m optimistic that the ones that have gone in (90% of those purchased) will give me much pleasure come spring. 😊

Unreliable delivery

You missed you delivery window although you did inform me, but then yet again on the day of delivery you completely missed your time window, in fact by 1.5 hours!

Disappointed

One of the plants was beautiful but the other has almost died. Not happy at all. Too expensive for what I got.
