Plant guarantee?

[dessiedog]

We were given an albizia tree this summer which was planted as advised and watered daily until we left for the UK. Unfortunately when we returned last month it seemed to have died. A friend has told us that it has a 12 month guarantee and will be replaced free of charge.

We have left it in place for now and will see how it is when we return next year, but can anyone confirm whether it does in fact have a 12 month guarantee?

Where was it bought from?  I can only attest to the fact that Jardiland guarantees certainly do work, sans quibble.  As to other plant retailers, I have no idea.

Worked for me but at a large independent respected garden centre.  [:D]

Most garden centres offer a guarantee and replace it even if it was not their fault! Not all nurseries will, however, arguing that they sold you a good plant and you have neglected it or killed it in some other way.

Ask the person who gave it to you where it was bought and take the plant, label and pot back to them; the receipt would be good too.

It would be interesting to hear how you get on.

Best of luck, Colin

First of all thanks for the replies and apologies for my very late response!

The plant was bought at Gamm Vert in Oloron Sainte Marie in July. As mentioned before we have left it in place and will see what it's like when we return, probably in Feb / March. We don't have the receipt but do have the plant's tag / pot and if it's dead we will approach Gamm for a refund or replacement.

Will let you know how we get on.
