o.uk...
Has anyome had any dealings with this company?

I ordered a fair quantity of bare rooted roses from them in early

October.
They say in their blurb that plants will be delivered Oct/Nov, but so

far
there's been a diquietening silence from them despite them happily

taking
my money.

Thamks for replies. Probably worrying about nothing but I never know

with
internet companies who seem to take their time fulfilling orders whom
I havem't dealt with before. Had a few bad experiences before.

Interesting comment that the exceptional mild spell may have delayed

lifting
of roses this year. I've noticed that roses are still not dormant yet.


It happens a lot with all sorts of things. People are keen to get hold
of a bare root something but nothing will be ready until the leaves are
gone. You have nothing to worry about with Parkers.

Thanks for that. It is about six weeks now since I submitted my order to
them. I will get concerned if they don't arrive by late November. I'll
contact them then if that nothing arrives by then..
