    Bought from them many times and will buy from again in the future, absolutely no hesitation recommending them.

    Bought quite a lot of stuff from them 24 years ago and to this day would recommend them.

    I looked into Mr Middleton before I went for future forests, The reason I chose future forests were they sold bundles of 10 bare root while Mr Middleton only sold bundles of 20. So it really depends on what you are looking for. I did email them and Mr Middleton were prompt at emailing me back and very helpful.
    Here are some reviews for them;

    I don't have any Knowledge of "design by nature".

    Hopefully that helps, maybe someone else would be able to give you some first hand experience as well.
