Product Availability
All items on our website are generally in stock for immediate delivery when you place your order, unless you are reserving stock in advance when it is out of season. These items are indicated throughout the site, along with the approximate delivery periods for the items. Plants and bulbs are living products and occasionally availability can be affected by adverse weather conditions and external factors beyond our control. In the event an item you have ordered is not available we will arrange back ordering the item until it is available again, or a substitute that we deem as a suitable alternative. Sizes and measurements of plants are approximate, as living items there will always be some variation between season, if recently pruned etc, and a minimum tolerance level of +/-10% and in some case +/-20% should be allowed, or even 90% if for example a plant such as a butter fly bush has been hard pruned. Pot sizes may vary from time to time from the approximate sizes stated online dependent on seasonal growth of plants and supply, we will however always supply the best plants available. Do remember that some plants are large and leafy in the summer month, but have no foliage in winter. Herbaceous perennials may migrate underground completely in the winter months, where they had been several feet tall in the summer.

Fair use Policy
In the case of special offers, discount products and promotions, Bowtanical Plants operates a ‘fair use policy’ and shall absolutely retain the right to accept, decline or vary orders placed for any products, if it is felt they go against the spirit of any offer made. For example, we reserve the right to cap the maximum quantity of a product any individual or household may order, and will reimburse orders in part or in full where we feel over-ordering that goes against the spirit of offers and this ‘fair use’ has occurred. This policy exists to ensure the maximum number of customers can benefit from these offers and ensure we will be able to continue offering the maximum value for money for our products to gardeners throughout the UK.
