“Plant arrived quickly and in great condition. I love it! Thanks so much”

Helpful Report

“I have ordered a bird of paradise which arrived not very happy. It has curling/burnt marks and black spots in at least half of the leafs. Also I found a mealybugs at the very bottom leaves; together with a lot of dust (?) and dirt. Definitely not what you’d expect from a plant shop and something like this can be purchased from a grocery store for 9.99. Difference is I paid £45 for the plant and £6 on delivery. One of the big leaves was also broken due too poor packaging. I have since then contacted The Stem but they quickly refused to help (James) - as the plant is standing up he thing all is good. He dismissed all my images and comments, made me feel very unheard and treated me very unfairly. all he said was I can return, at my own expense as he disregards all, feels like a scam, after sale service is non existent. As I received this on Thursday and he since then didn’t help I am not trying to take the bugs and damage off myself and hopefully have the plant will turn into a happy baby. I want going to leave a review however The Stem sent me an email to remind me to leave a review; where they state if you weren’t 100% happy to contact Cs and they promise they would resolve the issue for me. Shame as they didn’t. When receiving the plant I was 50%unhappy, after talking to James I am now 100% unhappy and I will be looping this review elsewhere for people to be careful and stay away from this shop.”

“Efficient delivery and good quality plant”

Helpful Report

“Excellent service and what a great help the website is. Great idea to inform people how to look after the plants once they have them from opening the box to placement. Usually, order my plants from a well-known supermarket online this time they did not have what I was looking for so searched online The Stem appeared a bit apprehensive about ordering from someone new that was dispelled on opening the box great plant was exactly what I wanted will order from The Stem from now on now I understand how passionate they are about plants.”

“Lovely service, well packaged and super healthy plants! Now I just have to figure out how to keep them alive 😇”

Helpful Report

“Company have good selection of products and seem better value than competitor (Patch Plants for example). My main ‘gripe’ on this occasion was that in the space of a month, start of Feb to start of March, price of one plant increased in price by 50%! From £20 to £30. Advised due to their suppliers but 50% increase seems excessive.”

“Received the plant I ordered right on time and impeccably packaged to protect it during transport and from the cold weather. The plant itself was very lovely, healthy and looked just as depicted in the picture. This is my second purchase from Stem and I would highly recommend them!”
