Dobbies
Dobbies is a garden centre chain headquartered in Lasswade, Scotland, trading since 1865 and now running more than 75 centres. Its website covers outdoor plants, grow-your-own, houseplants, garden furniture and sheds. It suits gardeners of every level, from someone buying a first pot plant to a keen vegetable grower. A two-year plant guarantee takes some of the risk out of buying plants online.
About Dobbies
Plants and growing
Outdoor plants include shrubs, climbers, roses, perennials, conifers and seasonal bedding. For the vegetable patch there are seed potatoes, onion and garlic sets, fruit and veg plants, and seeds for herbs, salad and flowers. Indoors, the houseplant range runs from leafy foliage to flowering cacti, with pots and care products to match. A peat-free compost range is stocked, and plants are sourced with sustainability in mind.
Furniture, sheds and landscaping
Garden furniture covers dining sets and pieces for lounging on the patio. Sheds give storage, while greenhouses and growhouses stretch the growing season. Landscaping materials are there for bigger changes to the garden's layout.
Delivery and returns at a glance
Standard home delivery costs £5.95 and is free over £50, while large items cost £15 to deliver. Some products come straight from approved suppliers. Click and collect is free at every centre. Deliveries go to UK mainland addresses, and plants can't be sent to Northern Ireland, Jersey, Guernsey or the Isle of Man. If a plant dies within 2 years, Dobbies will replace it. You can pay by Visa, Mastercard, American Express or Tesco Clubcard, and gift cards are sold.
