Minimum Order quantitys
Minimum orders are one Pot tuber or a minimum of 4 garden ready plants. These do not need to be the same plant. Plant Orders are shipped in Mid May Pot tubers in Mid January weather permitting. Pot tuber orders are closed by 12th January each year. Plant orders are closed from 30th April.
What can I expect with my Pot tuber order
All home grown tuber sales are pot grown. Some variety's will ignore the fact that they are being grown in a Pot and will smash out of that pot during the growing season. In short they are small nuggets ready to break into growth with the occasional large legged tuber.
How will I know that the tuber is Viable
All of our pot tubers are grown in Sterile media and sterile conditions for the entire year to ensure that Gall is not an issue at point of sale. The plants during the growing season are fully protected from invasions of pests which could carry viruses. In short we do not tolerate any form of Disease and go to great pains to ensure that the quality we generate is 100% viable. When they arrive with you please unpackage and keep frost free.
I cannot add an Item to my Basket
If this occurs the product is not currently been released for Sale. We will be in the process of building stock for release the following season. If there is a variety that you simply "must have" let us know about it and we can ensure that you are notified of impending releases.
