Ecalor stands for the best quality at the lowest prices possible for direct electric heaters, heat pumps, solar covers, sand filters & our constantly growing product line up including a wide range of spas and Above ground Pools.
Good website and selection of plants but sadly sometimes very much more expensive than my local garden centre prices. Worst problem is that delivery unbearably slow (pay 2 delivery charges if you want any sort of a chance that the plants will be despatched within two weeks) and customer service non-contactable. ...

Quick review of Crocus.co.uk
The service has definately gone down hill! Crocus used to provide excellent & speedy service but my most recent order has gone significantly over the 14 day limit without any communication why. It has been impossible to speak to anyone who can help & they seem to have outsourced their customer service function without the back up systems which allow orders to be checked except by e mail.
I asked for the name of the MD in my fourth call to them of the day & half an hour later I've had confirmation of despatch today! Seems a good tactic.
Plants are usually very good quality - shame that they don't seem set up to fulfill orders efficiently or deal with concerns. ...

Advantages: Fast, easy to use, great cusomer service... Disadvantages: Delivery charge is a bit steep
Crocus.co.uk was recommended to me by a friend a few years ago, since then I have purchased many plants inc. Grasses, bamboo and climbers, 2 battery powered globe outdoor lights, a large bag of compost and 6 pots in varying size and prices, and found them very reasonable! All of which have arrived within a few days, and have been of sound quality. Living in London it's pretty hard to get hold of these sorts of materials without a car, so I have found ... ...was launch in April 2000, and since then they've grown into the biggest gardening website in the UK.
