Cost of delivery (free for orders > 100 Euro) We will ship your order within 3 days of ordering and payment. The order will be sent to your home address, unless you have indicated a different address for the plants to be delivered to. There is a fixed amount of 8.57 GBP (€ 9,95 / 11,01 USD) delivery cost charge. Beyond this sum, any additional costs in delivery are not charged and on our account. No delivery costs will be charged for orders > 100 Euro.
Delivery service We use PostNL for all our deliveries. PostNL uses local mail delivery companies abroad such as HDN/UPS.
Packaging We package the plants carefully to make sure that they will be unharmed during transport. They will also be wrapped to protect against loss of moisture and soil to make sure they arrive in an optimal condition at your place. Upon delivery you should check the moisture contents of the plants which will normally be OK. One way to do this is by simply lifting the individual containers. If the container feels light the plant needs watering. You can put the container with plant in a bucket of water if it needs a thorough watering or simply water the soil around the plant. After watering you put the plant(s), without the container, in the designated spot in your garden.
Ordering procedure Ordering at ClematisOnline is very easy, it only takes three steps. 1. Select the plants of your interest and put them in the shopping cart; 2. Proceed to check-out and fill out shipping address (NB: if you want the order delivered to a different address please make sure you supply this address); 3. Select payment option of your choice and confirm your order. We will sent you an email confirming your order.
Returning items and refund policy Plants cannot be returned to us as they are liable to deteriorate rapidly. Other goods may be returned if they have not been used and (when possible) are still in the original packaging. The costs of returning such goods are paid by the customer. Also, prior to the actual returning, we need to be informed in writing (email or letter) about the items that are to be returned. Please include your full name and order number. If you have already paid for your order you also need to include your account number. This account number should be the account from which the payment to ClematisOnline was made. We will make the refund within 14 days.
Cooling-off period If your order includes plants, which are liable to deteriorate rapidly, the usual cooling-off period that covers online buying does not apply. If you should change your mind about plants you ordered please inform us immediately. If your order does not involve plants or items that do not deteriorate you have 14 days to inform us and another 14 days to return the goods (see above: returning items and refund policy).
