Every plant is carefully packed by our small, plant-loving Bristol team using protective, mostly plastic-free packaging.
Occasionally, you may find reused bubble wrap – this has been donated to us, and we encourage you to reuse it too.
Orders are usually packed and dispatched within 2–4 working days. We may occasionally delay dispatch during periods of extreme weather to protect your plants. We always prioritise plant health over speed of delivery.
Delivery is £5 for any number of items, or free on orders over £60. We deliver across the UK only.
We also offer local, bike-powered delivery in Bristol for £5 via Pedal Collective, a gentler option for plants and the planet.
We believe in paying people fairly, that’s why we’ve been a Real Living Wage Employer from the very beginning. We’re an independent Bristol business, packing every order ourselves.
Supporting us means supporting fair work.

‘Ballerina’ is an elegant lily-flowered tulip with beautifully pointed, swept-back petals in a vibrant burnt orange. Its slender flowers sit high on tall stems, giving it a graceful shape that looks particularly good weaving through a mixed spring border.
As an added bonus, ‘Ballerina’ is known for its fragrance – something you don’t find in every tulip. Plant it in a sunny border or container where you can enjoy both the rich colour and scent.
‘Ballerina’ holds the RHS Recommended: Award of Garden Merit.
