A growing gift with true longevity. All the magnificence of the familiar British oak tree, and this variety remains beautifully leafy all year round.
A striking tree with Mediterranean origins which has been described as a cross between an oak and an olive. The tree grows into the elegant canopied shape of the oak yet bears the leathery evergreen leaves and exceptional gnarled trunk of the olive tree. It is for this knobbly bark that the tree is prized, giving a well-established look to even new gardens.
Orders 1. Order Acceptance PolicyAll orders and subscription requests received are subject to acceptance by The Gluttonous Gardener Limited ("The Gluttonous Gardener"), and any of its personnel, reserve the right, at our absolute discretion, to reject any order without giving reasons. In the event of rejection, we will refund or cancel any payments received in full, via the payment method used to place the order.
2. Timing of your orderAs a part of the checkout process you will be able to select the delivery date for your order. Although over 99% of deliveries arrive on the delivery date within UK Mainland, there are a number of situations where despite our very best efforts, a delivery is late for reasons outside our control.
In these exceptional cases we cannot accept liability, and cannot offer a refund of the delivery charge. Please refer to clause 8 but be assured that we will still do our very best to deliver on time, even if these exceptional circumstances apply.Please note for destinations outside of UK Mainland deliveries can take slightly longer to arrive, and we cannot always guarantee a delivery date to more remote areas and international addresses.
If the recipient is out when delivery takes place the driver will try to leave it safe but this is not guaranteed. If delivery fails, the courier company will also reattempt delivery the following day. In the unlikely event that the recipient does not get in touch with the courier depot after two delivery attempts, we will contact you, the buyer, for further instructions.
If the parcel is returned to us or you wish to change the delivery address, a new delivery charge will apply.
Cost of delivery will be advised at the time of placing an order and is dependent on the delivery address, please see our Delivery Page for pricing information.
