Company details
Written by the company
Born out of a passion for plants we launched Plants By Post in 2015 with the aim to provide high quality plants as gifts. Our aim when we started was to provide plants as gifts and gift wrapped in a way that we would be happy to send to someone. Our gift wrapping involves using tissue paper, appropriate cellophane and finished with a satin ribbon hand tied bow. We are always adding new items to the range increasing the range of plants we offer. We work hard with our suppliers to bring you top quality plants at the best prices. If you are looking for something specific then please get in contact via the contact us page and we will be pleased to help. Every plant is picked, checked and packed carefully and using specially designed boxes which are 100% recyclable. There is the option of gift wrapping to make it that little more special on arrival. Whatever product you choose be sure to have the confidence that our small team will take care of your gift every step of the way.

Have bought tomato plants previously and they were great. This time I purchased cosmos garden ready plants x 2 at a cost of £19 plus postage. I usually sow my own seeds and bring on over a 100 plants for myself , family and friends. What I received were not garden ready plants but seedlings,about 2" to 3" high. One cell in a container was empty and all the seedlings were leaning at 45 degrees. There were actually 37 seedlings but I ordered 12 garden ready plants so I have had to repot them and keep them in the conservatory. How they will do , only time will tell and time was what I was trying to save by buying garden ready plants.

Beautiful quality plants
Took delivery of beautiful quality white impatiens. They arrived when expected, and the packaging is ingenious! Have already placed another order. Highly recommended.

Very poor customer service and really poor communication
Below was the response when I quoted the information on their website
“ Yes you’re right but if they don’t work due to bank holidays we can’t can we ”

One week late - I'm told to collect it myself from a shop
This is the first time I ordered from these people. My plant was supposed to be delivered on the 28th March. Today, on 3rd April, I get an email to say I can collect the plant from a shop. I bought this plant for a very ill friend who has just come out of hospital and has cancer. Thanks so much for such a rubbish service. I will never ever order from you again.

Unique Plants, Great Value
Another excellent delivery! Love this company... the plants are pretty, unique and reasonably priced. I e bought over 6 plants from this company over the years and they're really lovely. The last one was to my aunt and had really unique red leaves. The staff in the office are really helpful too!
Not worth what was paid.
Not worth what was paid.
My husband sent me the pineapple in seagrass basket, something you can buy from ikea for £8!…Some of the leaves don’t look healthy, all dry and crispy. £46.50 is outrageous for what was received.

Disappointing customer service
I paid extra for delivery on a specific day, my daughters' granny's birthday, but the gift failed to be delivered. I had no communication from the shop to apologise or explain and I emailed them them that evening (3 days ago now) and still no response. It did get delivered the next day and she was very happy with them, but I know she would habe been disappointed not to receive them on her birthday, a fulfillment i paid extra for.

Impressive company
Can't fault Plants By Post for service, packaging and keeping me informed re delivery. Plants delivered on date requeste, in excellent condition. I have used the company since 2021.
Excellent quality
I recently bought a mind-your-own-business house plant from Plants by Post, it was the first time I'd used them and have been delighted with the service and the quality of the plant. It arrived quite quickly, very carefully packaged with no plant damage, and a very healthy and thriving plant. I like to give praise where it's due and it's due in this case. Can highly recommend and will be using this company again.

I am new to ordering plants by post and I am not a great gardener but wanted to brighten up my patio garden. I was absolutely amazed by the quality of the packaging of the plants. I ordered 5 plants and they all arrived in immaculate condition and ready to put straight onto my patio. Superb quality!!!
Spathiphyllum Peace Lily
We ordered a Spathiphyllum Peace Lily for friends who had suffered a bereavement. The plant was lovely, just as described and the packaging was excellent. The note was also hand written which was a nice touch. It arrived on the day requested. Fantastic service.
Fool me once fool me twice! …
Twice I have ordered from this company and twice they have failed to deliver on the day and time they were supposed to. Very very poor communication - literally have not responded to the emails I have been sending them.
Once, they are given the benefit of the doubt, twice they are given the cold shoulder. I will never order from them again!
Plants Dying - no Reply - not happy
Have used Plants By Post before and received lovely plants. However, this time indeed Primroses in October for winter colour. Very healthy when they turned up (plants are always well packaged) but no flowers after a few weeks. Was told they would be flowering but now mist of them are dead or dying. Emailed asking for refund or replacement but have heard nothing. Very disappointed and won't be buying from them again
Appaling customer service
Appaling customer service. No answer at all when trying to make a return, despite trying to contact them 5 times over a few days, using 4 different means of contact. Not impressed. Doing this is not even legal.
All plants were very well wrapped and…
All plants were very well wrapped and were in excellent conditions. Using again!
Delivered days later than requested 🤬🤬😖😖
I ordered plants on the 16 February, to be delivered on the 18th February. It's now 20th Feb. Still waiting on this item. Not happy😤😤😤🤬🤬 to say the least. As was a birthday gift 🤬🤬🤬😤😤😖
Excellent quality plants..
Excellent quality plants and very quick delivery. My plants were very well wrapped for transit and arrived in excellent condition. I will (and have) ordered from this small business again 🌷🌺🌼.
