Ashtead Park Plant Guarantee

We are very confident in the quality of the hardy plants we sell. However, we understand that some gardeners may experience problems with their purchases. If you do experience a problem, please first contact the qualified staff at the garden centre who will provide advice that should rectify it.

We offer a 6-month guarantee on hardy plants, providing you produce proof of purchase.  We will gladly replace any hardy plant with the same one or one of equal value if it has been determined solely by the Plant Manager that we sold you an unhealthy plant. You may be required to return the plant to the garden centre. Once plants have been sold and accepted as good quality, we cannot accept any liability for plant failures due to lack of care or harmful environmental conditions.

Your statutory rights are not affected.

Yes! Well-behaved dogs are welcome in the shop provided they are kept on the lead at all times. For hygiene reasons we don't allow them inside The Olive Tree but they can enjoy the al fresco seating area just outside. You can walk through the restaurant to access this area.

Please be careful and keep a watchful eye on your dog as some of the plants we stock can be toxic to animals. This may include plants displayed in The Olive Tree garden. Dogs are welcome but are the responsibility of their owner.

Assistance dogs are welcome in The Olive Tree if their credentials can be provided.

Not generally, although we do occasionally have British grown Daffodils, but we have lots of plants and a good selection of artificial flowers throughout the year.

Yes, we stock Patio Gas and Bhutane. We are currently not able to offer a Cylinder Refill Agreement Process as Calor are not offering these, so you must bring in an empty bottle to exchange for a pre-filled cylinder within the same category group, and just pay for the gas inside. Details of category groups are below.

If however, you don’t want another cylinder, you can simply return the empty one in good condition and receive a partial refund on the cost of the refill agreement, which is worked out on a sliding scale.
