Trees

So far we have ordered 5 trees (two fruit & 3 flowering). They all arrived looking very well.
I'll try to update in a couple months as that is when I'll know the outcome

Definitely a return customer
April 17, 2021

Customer service was excellent. Had to change my order the day before my order was due to ship because I found out the trees I ordered were toxic to dogs. Bad on me for not researching in depth prior but the customer service was outstanding. My original order as cancelled/refunded and the customer service rep helped me order the replacement dogwood trees at the same time. Order arrived about 4 days later, planted and looking amazing.

Both trees I ordered the pots they came in were both broken. Not sure if my trees are going to survive.

Sad condition of plant
April 17, 2021
Updated review

I thought the description said 2' - 3' Must have misread if was more like 3 inches. Very dry and limp. Luckily we are well versed in caring for banana "trees" and have nursed it back.

Delivery Fail
April 19, 2021
Updated review

Not once but twice did the order you shipped come in a box with unrecognizable pieces of plant matter all mixed up in a cardboard box. Horrible experience two years in a row. I will never shop with brighter blooms again and will mot recommend to anyone ever.

Products received
April 16, 2021

This was a replacement for a cherry tree that arrived last year that was in terrible condition, lose from its pot, most soil spilled out.
This frost proof gardenia was to use the credit received but had to pay for shipping so this little tree was way overpriced but there was nothing else we wanted.
The little frost proof gardenia arrived in good shape but immediately started to drop its leaves and continues to do so today. I hope we don't lose it.

Good looking trees
April 16, 2021

Trees arrived in good shape, the smaller pots were a little crushed so I had to transplant those immediately. The trees and plants I have purchased from BrighterBlooms always arrive in good shape and thrive once they acclimate to the proper environment.
Suggestion: Although every shipping comes with generic instructions to let the tree/plant acclimate and how to plant it would be nice to get care instructions, suggested fertilizer, etc. specific to the plant or tree you purchased.

Ordered my mom a lemon and lime tree over two months ago. The lime tree was delivered so late and wasn't the size I ordered. The lemon tree is STILL missing in action. Hasn't shipped? No updates what so ever. Next to impossible to get an actual customer service person on the phone. My mom has cancer and lemons are the only thing that makes her food taste good. No sister and I wanted her to have her own lemons and limes to look forward to. Because she is confined to her home, alone. We can't see her... because her immune system is compromised - never mind in a pandemic. You sent the Card with only half the order — which explained why she was getting a lime AND A LEMON tree — except only one showed up. This was supposed to be a special gift - and she read the card so excited. Only to be just as confused as I am about this company. Awful. So wildly upset with this entire experience. This company is not what it seems. Do not do business with them. I never will, ever again.
