Placing an order at botanyplants.co.uk plant nurseries
Choosing the plants for your site
Making an enquiry
Please e-mail us atinfo@botanyplants.co.uk with a list of the plants you require , and we shall reply, once we have checked our stocks, stating quantities and sizes available. Details of the range of plants that we have at each location can be found in our plants lists. Plants stocked primarily in Kent are marked with RHS nursery code SEND – South East NorthDown, and MMuck for Midlands -Mucklestone. We are regularly travelling between the two so can make up orders from both Nurseries for collection or delivery from either. As we are constantly propagating and sourcing new stock , stocks may vary from year to year. As we have over 2,000 varieties/species we only stock limited ‘retail’ quantities of each item. Larger quantities of plants of a specific variety can be propagated to order given enough advanced warning – we have even done this for customers including Kew Gardens. Please supply us with your full contact details – including any delivery address and day time phone number – as these are required in due course.
Order Confirmation On confirmation of availability of your order, we recommend visiting to make your final selection, collection and payment on a ‘click and collect’ basis . We can also arrange delivery or deliver personally. Returns – in the event of disappointment with any plant , a full refund can be given for plants returned to the nurseries – but not any carriage or other costs incurred, sorry, as the plants are sold on an ‘ex nursery’ basis.
Payment
Remote payments are usually by BACS, or credit/debit card over the phone .

Cost of Delivery
We are not a Mail Order Nursery – new post Brexit plant passporting regulations dictate we may only supply our end user customers. Deliveries may be made of plants purchased from the nurseries . We endeavour to keep these ‘at cost’ .
Delivery or carriage to the EU or Northern Ireland is no longer permitted . As a guide:-
Thanet and Market Drayton areas normally free, at our discretion/ convenience.
Small parcels less than 1.5 kg £5
1-3 3ltr shrubs £6
larger parcels pro rata
Large trees are difficult or impossible to send by courier.
Where timing of delivery is not critical we can usually deliver in Kent, South Coast, or main M25, M11, M4, M5, M1 and M6 corridors at a typical cost of £10-£20, with occasional trips further afield to Scotland , Wales and the West country. These are at our discretion and convenience and during the dormant season.
Returns
Our plants may not have the instant ‘eye appeal’ of a typical imported or greenhouse grown garden centre plant in flower, but should prove hardy and develop and thrive over the years in a suitable location. We ask customers to visit the nurseries to view their plants before purchase where possible. If any plants supplied by us are not as anticipated we would ask that they are returned. A full refund will be given for the returned plants (but not delivery or return costs I’m afraid). Due to our limited stock we do not undertake to send out replacements.
