Here at Mail Order Trees, getting your trees and plants to you quickly and in perfect condition is our top priority. A great feature of our specially designed cardboard boxes is that they are 100% recyclable, which will help to reduce your carbon footprint even further.
We have a standard flat rate charge of £9.95 per consignment (including VAT) to England and Wales so the more you buy, the more you save! Prices for Scotland, Grampian, the Highands can be calculated in the checkout area. Unfortunately we are unable to ship to any other locations aside from these. This means we do not ship to Isle of Wight, Channel Islands, Northern Ireland/Ireland and any Scottish Islands.
Our usual delivery time is up to 7-10 working days. We will, as ever, aim to stick to our usual timescale but please be aware that this may not always be possible. Please take the time to fill out the special instructions box in the checkout area with the details of a neighbour or safe place that your trees can be left. Every effort will be made to make deliveries in this time or on a date requested by you.
Mail-Order-Trees cannot be held responsible for delayed deliveries due to factors beyond our control such as Public Holidays or adverse weather conditions which make it impossible to lift bare-rooted trees. In cases such as these, you will be notified.
We can only deliver to physical addresses and not to PO boxes. A complete address including correct postcode must be provided. Incorrect postcodes cause more delays than omitting the postcode altogether.
Mail-Order-Trees cannot be held responsible for orders not received if an incorrect address is provided. It will also be necessary to give us details of where to place items should you be out when the delivery arrives. Mail-Order-Trees cannot be responsible for items lost if we have followed your instructions. A contact telephone number can also be very useful to our courier.
Eryngium variifolium 'Miss Marbel', commonly known as Miss Marbel Sea Holly, is an eye-catching perennial that brings a unique blend of colour and texture to garden borders, rock gardens, and coastal plantings. This cultivar is particularly noted for its striking, deeply lobed, marbled foliage, which features a beautiful mix of green with creamy-white veining. In summer, 'Miss Marbel' produces spiky, steel-blue flowers with silvery bracts that rise above the foliage on tall, slender stems, creating a bold and architectural presence in the garden.
Eryngium variifolium 'Miss Marbel' typically grows to a height of 30-45 cm (12-18 inches) and spreads to about 30 cm (12 inches), making it a compact and versatile choice for various garden settings. It thrives in well-drained, sandy, or gravelly soils and prefers a position in full sun, where its unique foliage and flowers can develop their best colour. This plant is hardy in the UK to RHS hardiness rating H5, meaning it can tolerate cold winters down to around -15°C (5°F).
Miss Marbel Sea Holly is relatively low-maintenance, requiring little care once established. It is drought-tolerant and thrives in dry, sunny locations, making it ideal for gardens with poor, well-drained soils. The plant's spiky flowers are highly attractive to pollinators, including bees and butterflies, adding ecological value to its ornamental appeal. The flowers and foliage are also excellent for cutting and can be used in fresh or dried floral arrangements.
Eryngium variifolium 'Miss Marbel' is a distinctive plant that adds a touch of drama and texture to the garden. Whether used as a focal point in a border, combined with other drought-tolerant plants in a gravel garden, or featured in a coastal planting scheme, this Sea Holly cultivar provides year-round interest and a touch of the unusual to any landscape.
