Best for Chilli seeds
Always my first port of call for chilli and tomato seeds. Never had an issue with delivery and quality of product. Most importantly the chilli seeds are always true to type, unlike some you get from other sites. Would recommend to all.
Had to have a plant replaced
Had to have a plant replaced. Company were sympathetic, pleasant and efficient. Plant arrived quickly, in good condition and well packaged.
Promised replacement plants never arrived.
Promised replacement plants never did arrive. I reached the point where I couldn’t be bothered to communicate with them further as it was a total waste of my time. They clearly work on the basis that eventually people will just give up trying to get decent plants or a refund.
Dreadful way to treat customers. I shall avoid this company in the future.
Very nice plants arrived safely
The fuchsias arrived safely, well packed and in good condition. 2 of them were actually flowering. Service was very fast and the plants arrived when expected. I would definitely recommend this nursery.
Lots of information about the plants…
Lots of information about the plants and how to look after them. Good management of difficult to manage goods from the point of view of sending them when they are ready but collection also available. They follow my instructions about leaving goods in a safe place. The plants are healthy and grow well.
Online order
I ordered two Fuchsia plants, which were dispatched quickly. They were securely packaged, to protect against damage in transit. The plants are very healthy. I can't wait to see them in bloom. Thank you.
Efficient and Communicative
I found the company to be efficient and communicative.
The Tamarillo Tree Tomato plant I ordered was healthy, sturdy and packed with care. I was kept informed at each stage of the package's journey. My experience with Victoriana Nursery Gardens was wholly positive.
Fantastic service
When ordered they kept me up to date with each process as it happened by email from ordering to posting out and was delivered the day after posting. Great service really helpful and good prices too.
Thank you
An excellent supplier
An excellent supplier. I have ordered quite a few herbs and they have always been very impressive plants. Delivery time and packaging are excellent.
Not plants just broken branches
Not very good quality plants but just some broken branches with no leaves.
A complete waste of money, as the plants were very expensive - not nice to be treated this way from the moment they got real money not fake.
Plants have just arrived on time
Plants have just arrived on time, lovely plants, lovely size and my elderly cat will love the cat grass. All in all a very good service, thankyou

I ordered some fuschia plants online to be delivered to my sister, who lives fairly close to Victoriana, as I live 100 miles away.
Victoriana kept me informed at each stage of packing, posting, etc.
My sister was thrilled with the plants. They were in really excellent condition, quite substantial, in good-sized pots.
I was notified when to expect delivery, and it was on time.
Everything was a great experience, and I recommend Victoriana Nursery for beautiful, strong plants, and excellent customer service.
Very impressed with service of…
Very impressed with service of Victoriana Nursery Gardens. My Black Mulberry tree (of nursery rhyme fame -"Here we go round the Mulberry Bush!) arrived this morning -well-grown & packed so well - and I'd only ordered it on Monday , and here it is 2 days after.
Many thanks Victoriana - will be passing word round & see what other things you grow.
Mail order perfection
My (mail order) plants were delivered on time in tip top condition. The plant packaging is the best I have seen in mail order plants, and I would not hesitate to order from Victoriana Nurseries again. Class company to deal with!
not as good as usual
Just received a very sad 10cm high raspberry plant with tiny leaves for £13.95 and £100 of myob and various other small perennials that are half dead. Yes we are in a drought but my other plant orders have all arrived super healthy and flourishing. Have been buying from Victoriana for years but will hesitate to order again.
Pleasantly surprised.
I honestly did not know what to expect from a nursery who has no presence on social media. I was so excited and pleasantly surprised 248when the not so common herbs arrived. They were well packed and survived the heat. I can definitely recommend this nursery and will order more herbs once I can make place for more pots!
Poor quality plants
In my opinion the plants purchased from this company were simply divisions torn from a mother palnt, the thyme had been place into a pot with a black soggy compost and no signs of root.
I had high hopes which were not fulfilled.
0% germination of seeds
0% germination of seeds - chillies and tomatoes.
Grew other varieties in exactly the same medium as the seeds from this supplier but sadly I had none germinate.
Ah well, lesson learned
Love this company
Love this company. It’s super efficient, feels very customer orientated and plants were delivered in superb condition. Would also commend them on using plants wrapped in newspaper (wrapped in a small plastic bag) vs plastic pots. Would definitely use Victoriana again
