Ordered trees that were not as described - instead of being standards they were bare rooted whips - and priced at 75% more than could be purchased elsewhere - similar ones were even on sale for 75% less at local supermarket!!.

Even the trees supplied were in very poor condition and delivered over three weeks "late".

I am not surprised that you have caught them out for posting false "comments" to boost their ratings - I suspect that they adopted similar malpractice to boost their ratings on other "comment" sites..
