Export Orders
We are able to despatch seeds only (excluding lawn seed) to private customers in other EU Countries (except the Irish Republic). A minimum order value of £8.00 applies together with carriage charge of £4.95. Payment by Visa, Mastercard or Eurocard. We regret that we are unable to accept orders from private customers for despatch outside the EU.

Payment
We accept payment for online orders by Visa (except Electron), Mastercard, Maestro (Switch) or Delta through the Paypal Merchant System. In order to keep administration costs low, and to avoid issues where credit & debit cards expire before delivery, cards are debited when the order is first processed. If items subsequently become unavailable, a full refund will be issued.

Substitutes
The supply of goods listed is subject to availability, and we may send the best available substitute for a variety out of stock. If this is not possible, we shall send a credit for amounts under £1.00, for use against future purchases. Refunds are made for amounts above this value, or in any case on request. Should our alternative not prove acceptable, please do not hesitate to contact us and we will forward a refund to cover the cost of the item not available.
