Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions apply to all orders for delivery to the UK. Placing an order constitutes your acceptance thereof. Despatch of the products by us constitutes acceptance of the order by us and the commencement of our contract to supply. Your contract for supply is with Branded Garden Products Ltd, trading as Thompson & Morgan. Your statutory rights are not affected by any of these terms.
Please note all orders via this website must be placed by individuals 18 or over. By ordering from this website you are confirming that you are aged 18 or over.

Our Commitment

Thompson & Morgan is committed to supplying high quality products to recreational gardeners and households for personal use and not for resale. In accordance with the established custom of the trade, Thompson & Morgan will in no case be liable for more than the actual amount paid for a particular item.

Availability

We will endeavour only to offer products which we expect to have in stock and available for ordering, but all items are subject to availability. Varieties that become unavailable will not be selectable on our website. Should a specific variety not be available at the time of despatch, or if items are of unsuitable quality to send, we undertake to supply a variety of similar colour and habit, and of an equal or greater value or send the item when available. If no suitable substitutes are available, we will send a credit. Should you for any reason (including being unhappy with product substitutions) wish to receive a refund, you must return the product immediately.

Delivery

For plants, bulbs, fruit and potatoes approximate delivery dates are detailed on their product pages and on order acknowledgements. While we will do our very best to make delivery within this timeframe, weather conditions and natural light levels can affect plant growth rates and therefore may cause delivery dates to vary. In the event that your order is likely to be delayed by over 2 weeks from the indicated delivery window, we will write to you and advise new delivery times. However, it is also possible that plants may be despatched earlier than indicated.

Most seed orders are shipped within 1 working day of receipt of order.

Orders to overseas addresses can take up to 28 working days for delivery.

Special Conditions for Certain Items

Plants

We will ship your plants to you at the best time for planting. The sooner you can plant them after arrival, the more successful you will be. We recommend that you prepare your soil, planting beds or patio containers ahead of time so you are ready to plant, or pot on when your order arrives. Please ensure that you open the packaging immediately upon receipt, and carefully read through the instruction leaflet provided.

It is not uncommon for some discolouration of the foliage to take place while the plants are contained in the dark during transit, but rest assured that the plants will return to their normal, healthy colour within a few days. Similarly, if on opening the package the plants appear ‘limp’, simply stand them in water and they will soon revive. If after a couple of days the plants do not perk up, please bring the problem to our attention.

Each plant variety, or product, may be packed separately, so if you order several plant varieties or products, these are likely to arrive on different days. Each package will state the item enclosed on your address label. Please do not be alarmed if you do not receive your entire order on the same day.

We promise to supply you with vigorous, healthy products in prime condition. We only ask you to plant them according to the growing instructions provided to enable you to get the best possible performance from them. We do understand that when dealing with living plants, occasionally problems may arise despite our mutual best efforts. In these instances we ask you to draw the problems to our attention so that we may help wherever we can. However, if you have not followed the instructions provided and your plants or seedlings do not grow properly, while we may share your disappointment, we regret we cannot share your loss. We promise to do our job to the highest standards, and we rely on you to use your best endeavours to achieve the optimum results.
