    Olympic service!

    I recently purchased an Olympic Flame Rowan tree from Bowhayes for delivery to a Scottish island. Having had a disastrous experience from another supplier, where I ordered two trees last year with one never arriving and the other two months later, I was apprehensive. However our rowan arrived well-packed, on time and intact.. It is a fine sturdy tree with strong trunk and we expect great things from it in the spring.... Well done, Bowhayes.
