Written by the company
Here at The Ideal Garden, we've been selling high-quality gardening and landscaping products to customers all over the country for years. Our family-run business developed from our landscaping firm which has been going since the 1980s. We discovered some great landscaping products over the years and decided they were so good that we would start supplying them ourselves. Since then, the online shop side of the business has grown massively - but we still run everything from our central office and storage centre at Calves Lane Farm, maintaining the close-knit family-run style of doing business.

Overall good but not perfect
I think the website. Could be improved. Colour contrast is not brilliant for older eyes and it is not entirely intuitive. However ordering and delivery was ok

Buy from here.
I called to check on the price of edging, as it seemed cheaper on Amazon (not hugely thou), the person I spoke to explained why this was, but and more importantly we spoke about what I wanted and advised on a different one I had intended to buy, which was also less expensive but more in line with my needs.
Good, personable and honest service.Product came quickly and is of good quality.
We tend to forgot about the benefits of person to person communication for advice and help

Good Product but be aware of changed design
Product good and delivery very quick. Just a shame they have changed the design and the new units do not match up with earlier purchased units.
