NEW lower delivery charge

Good news! Our 48 hour delivery service is now a new even lower flat rate of £8.75 for parcels to most UK mainland postcodes* and containing up to 35 plants – this is a 40% saving on postage. Very large orders may have to be sent as two separate parcels and will therefore cost extra, in which case we will advise you. *Charges and delivery vary for the Scottish Highlands & Islands (£20.50), Northern Ireland (£15), Isles of Man and Isles of Scilly – please request a quote for these areas.

Payment

Please make payment by cheque or postal order, made payable to Slack Top Nurseries. Important: Please send your email address with your order so we can confirm when it has been posted out.

Overseas orders

If you live outside the UK and wish to place an order, please contact us by email with your order so we can confirm availability and also postage charges. Payment must be made by direct bank transfer.

Alternatives

Please list a few alternatives in case your choices are not available, or instruct us to substitute with something similar, or if you prefer we can return a credit note. Alternatively you may wish to send a limit cheque, where you simply write in words the maximum value of your order at the top of the cheque, leaving the box for figures blank. We will then complete the text and figures for the correct amount.

Minimum Order Value

Due to the high labour input on mail order, our minimum order value is £20 sterling, excluding postage.

Dwarf conifers & larger plants

Please note that we package dwarf conifers to endeavour to prevent damage in transit but sometimes their growth can be temporarily distorted as a result. In ordering dwarf conifers by mail order you are accepting that this may happen. The plant soon regains its natural shape. Larger plants may also have their pot and some of the compost removed.

Despatch

Please allow up to 14 days for despatch. We try to despatch parcels on a Monday, where possible, so they are usually delivered to you on a Wednesday. This avoids any weekend delays. We cannot despatch while temperatures are below zero, as plants are unsuitable for posting.

Refunds

Due to the nature of our product (live plants) we do not normally issue refunds. A replacement will usually be offered for faulty goods. Please email us at .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address) or telephone 01422 845348.

Responsibility

Complaints should be made within seven days of receipt of your order. No responsibility can be accepted for failure after planting as drought, pests and diseases all take their toll.
