    I wanted to purchase raspberries, strawberries and apple trees for my garden. I was very impressed by the information available on the website about the different types of trees they offer, the different rootstock options and the price was excellent too. I saw a few bad reviews (mostly about issues with delivery) so I contacted Chris via email to check everything was in stock. I ordered x3 types of varieties of strawberries and xx different apple trees for cordon growing. The raspberries I wanted were unfortunately out of stock. I was very impressed by how fast Chris and his team answered by emails and were very helpful with answering all my questions. I placed my order and it arrived less than 5 days later which was impressive. All packaging was eco friendly. The trees were in great condition, bare root and ready to go in the ground. The strawberries at first look a bit worse for wear, but had great roots on them. I popped them into some compost and within a week had plentiful of new shoots. I was very impressed as I didnt lose a single strawberry and they were very substanical plants (much better roots than what you great for same price at garden centre). Overall, I was worried by a few bad reviews, however from my experience I cannot recommend Chris Bowers and Sons more highly! From grea website info, great prices, excellent customer services and above all, fantastic plants! I absolutely recommend.

    I just wish I had read the reviews before ordering three blueberry bushes. They were advertised as 2 year old plants but one had barely a root system and the soil fell apart with potting it on. The firm wrote back to say It was potted last September, blueberries often have surprisingly small root systems for the ize of the plant as displayed here but it is not detrimental ad the specimen you have received will very likely fruit this summer so you can't really ask for more than that.. It has no flowers and will obviously not fruit this summer. The other two plants are the Darrow variety. One has pink flowers other white. Research on the internet shows that the flowers should be white. The company says flower colour does vary with stage of development. I have now written to ask for a replacement of the wrongly labelled plant. Neither email reply was signed or had any other contact details. If I have further positive news I will update this review. This is clearly a company to avoid as it does not supply what is ordered either in quality advertised or the variety and the concept of customer service is unknown to this company. Buy your plants elsewhere.

    The rudest company I have ever had the misfortune to deal with. How on earth people continue to trade with them is beyond me.

    Spoke to their expert Julie who spent a good hour with me choosing the best varieties of fruit trees for my small garden area to get a good steady and long harvest. Great experience so far, looking forward to receiving my order and planting out! Will update my review when I get my trees.
