Wednesday, 26 January 2022 | Patricia The Jostaberry plant was as described and very well packaged. The order and delivery notifications were excellent. Wouldn't hesitate to purchase from again. Tuesday, 25 January 2022 | Graham My plants arrived in good time and were in perfect condition , well packed and looking healthy. If my bedding plants are of the same standard i will be a very happy Gardener Recyclable Grey Plastic Plant Tray Tuesday, 25 January 2022 | Janet Researching, it was difficult to find recyclable plant tray for sale so I was pleased to be able to buy some from Brookside Nursery. I purchased the 9 cell ones to start off broad beans and peas, saving the 6 cell ones for courgettes and squash later in the season. The quality is good so I hoping to be able to use them for some years, doubling them up if cracks appear which hasn't happened so far. Haws Cascader watering can Tuesday, 25 January 2022 | Pat This is the best can you can buy, perfect balance and long reach, my last one eventually broke after 15 years.
Brookside service was excellent as was the price Thursday, 20 January 2022 | Lynn This item, arrived quickly and was very well packaged. The plant looks healthy and I am looking forward to the fruit later in the year. Surfinia Hot Pink 84 plugs Saturday, 15 January 2022 | John A bit long winded here but bare with me.
So this is a review I meant to do last year but forgot until it was time for me to reorder this year
I had never tried surfinias before, in fact I was unaware of their size and trailing ability until I saw a picture of them somewhere. So I used Brookside for the first time and you did not disappoint.
I received 84 Surfinia Hot Pinks and paid £45 then. I see the price has gone up a tad but its probably less than the rate of inflation so very acceptable. I keep a record of all garden purchases on a spread sheet so I know what I had paid back then plus I add a comment on the results of growth.
I can only applaud you for the way they were packaged and every plug plant came on. Yes I had to use my rather large polytunnel to protect them from a few surprise frosts but that is not unusual for most gardeners. When the weather warmed up they were then re-potted into 9" pots, left out and I had the enjoyment of seeing their growth. Many went into hanging baskets and I wish I could post up a picture here because they were the most astonishing displays I have ever had. Neighbours commented so much it became embarrasing. And they just flowered on way into autumn. O.K. a tad of miracle grow always helps and I did deadhead a few times. But yes.. one very happy gardener here and thank you Brookside!. Now I should add that my regular supplier in Jersey was taken over by another company and to say they had teething problems with deliveries would be an understatement plus they vastly increased their prices. So Brookside you now haver a customer who will be ordering some other plants from you now!. Don't let me down now and I will naturally review them too. But based on what I have received before and the numerous positive reviews from others I doubt I have anything to fear. My compliments to your staff and keep up the great work and .. roll on Spring! If you want me to send pics of my hanging basket surfinias then let me know how I can do so. For now.. a very worthy 5 stars! John in Gloucester | 
An abundance of spring/summer colour is available with our Pansy and Viola Plug Plants. If you are looking for an elegant display, try the almost black Viola 'Molly Sanderson' & the deep mauve/white of Viola 'Rebecca' as a combination.
