What big words PP! I had to google them to avoid revealing my ignorance. If I go to RHS plants on my laptop, it automatically takes me to crocus, however on my phone they are separate sites. Not sure how that works. I tend to order with crocus for the GW subscriber discount and I've not had a problem with them thus far, indeed, I'm currently awaiting an acer emerald lace from them . However, I'm quite new to gardening and online plant suppliers, so will reserve judgement for now...........
Well, they never got back to me (again) so I had to ring them again today....
They told me it was out for delivery again today as it had been returned by the courier (aka the courier mucked up). When I told them this wasn't acceptable as it was a live plant which had now been in a box for over a week, they initially argued that I wasn't going to get a refund as I would get it today
I had to really push for them to refund me and the best I got was a refund of the item, but not the delivery charge. So I still have to pay five pound for a dead plant.

Think you're right Sunshine Smiler
I do know what I'm talking about and I say it with such conviction....apparently!
Dunno SS but crocus don't have the same offer on. They just have individual plants. It's terrible to have Zaluzianskya ovata envy.
Why aren't Crocus using the ocado delivery service? Cheapskates

Sorry guys. It was on another thread. We all went green eyed monster over a very pretty plant and crocus is the first supplier we came up with.
I'm always astounded at how much business Crocus gets - they've always seemed hideously expensive to me.
I live in west central Scotland - not where that photo is...

Quite disgusted, really.
It might not be dead....just unconsciuos. You'll be able to revive it ok.
I hope so PP...
