I have 2 elderly dogs who have both recently lost their vision due to cataracts. Although this can be rectified by surgery, it is an expense I cannot afford - times 2! After doing some research, I believe that eating wild garlic regularly (which dogs don't seem to mind), cataracts tend to thin and therefore improving vision. I thought I'd give it a try, but couldn't find a supplier... until I came across this website. Not only did I find the plant I was searching for here, but Jason promptly assisted me - efficiently and professionally. I sent payment for my order, and it was dispatched that same day - arriving 2 days later via Speed Services (in perfect condition!). I cannot thank Haakdoorn Nursery enough for their brilliant and friendly assistance. I highly recommend dealing with them, and will certainly deal with them in the future!
