    Excellent healthy plant

  14. Lena Lawrence (verified owner)

    Looks like a beautiful carpet alpine, but waiting to plant as too cold at present and don’t want to risk losing it as frost threatened. Yet again another really healthy plant which was well packed and arrived in excellent condition. Would definitely recommend this small family run Alpine grower. I have shopped with them for a few years now and they are very reliable.

    I have bought Alpines from D’arcy & Everest usually at various shows, recently i have put a number of orders in via their on-line shop. I have been very pleased with the plants picked for me. I have & will be using their on-line shop again. Cheers Steve Sinnott.

    All plants arrived as healthy specimens that were very carefully packed. Even delicate flowers arrived intact and virtually unscathed, which is really impressive. Thank you so much for growing such healthy and beautiful plants – your passion, skill and care for growing alpines shines through brightly from the gorgeous package of exciting new plants that I received.

    I am a returning customer from quite a few years back. The service I received is still top class, the quality of the plants are still exquisite, my plants have been in situ for less than a month and everyone is growing strong and looking the epitome of health. Well done to all, I thoroughly recommend as the first stop for all alpines and I look forward to returning for more.

    All plants were in excellent condition and safely packaged. My first, but definitely won’t be my last , order. The plants are all thriving and even the salvia that was in flower doesn’t even realise it’s been on a journey! Thankyou for your excellent service.
