Arrival of trees
June 22, 2022

Delivery was rapid, one tree in good shape, the other leaves a bit wilted. I planted and so far leaves are turgid. Joe

In SC Orange trees 3ft.
June 22, 2022

The trees are doing great right now, however one small branch on the top was broken. I like dwarf plants so I think this will be just fine. The site said it was shipping in Feb and I got them in June.

5/6 foot Tangelo tree
June 22, 2022

My tree arrived very quickly however a main branch was snapped which was disappointing. The trunk is as thin as a pencil and couldn't support a single fruit. Hopefully it will grow stronger and wider. I don't understand why there are so many grafts. I counted at least 4 of them. Is this typical? The tree does seem to be healthy

Sympathy plant
June 21, 2022

I sent a hydrangea to a family member who lost her mother. She loved it, especially because her mother loved that flower.

Harvey lemon tree
June 21, 2022

Great experience. The tree is small, but I ordered the 1 to 2 foot tree and it already has a lot of new growth on it. It arrived within a few days or ordering, was nicely packed, in very good condition. I would definitely order from Brighter Blooms again!

No Support
June 22, 2022

I attempted to get ahold of brighter bonds with concerns about the tree as soon as it arrived. My email was rejected as going to an unmentioned email account. They offer no way to reach them other than a phone number. I called when I could - I work 2 jobs and prefer email or chat - but it phone line said I was next in queue, and I waited 35 minutes before I had to go back to work. I paid for the warranty, but clearly there isn't any way to reach them so that's just a joke. All but 1 limb was off the tree but in the box when it arrived. Buyer beware I guess.

Overpriced scroungy tree
June 21, 2022

I paid over $205.43 (includes shipping) for a 6-7 foot Forest Pansy Redbud. The description didn't say it would look like a Charlie Brown Christmas tree. Has maybe 3-4 branches and is not at all what I'd expect for a tree that tall and that expensive. I was going to plant it on the front corner of my house but it's too scraggly. I am disappointed. Buy local. That way you know just what you're getting.

Catmint Near Death
June 22, 2022

My two Catmint bushes I ordered were in pretty rough condition when I received them. After planting, one is doing fine but the other is very near death since the beginning. Pretty disappointed with the one small green vine on the one catmint. Hoping it survives but the chances are looking slim.

Easy process and great plant
June 21, 2022

I had researched the right plant for my climate and needs, found the star jasmine on the site, sent some questions to the BrighterBlooms team about size of plant I should buy, hit order, and received my plant with easy planting instructions.

In good shape but not pretty
June 21, 2022

2 gallon rose was alive and well, but had a major branch removed so it is kind of half a rose. And there is a huge turn in the main stem that sits below the dirt. Also the leaves were colored and spotted. But I think it's going to be OK. Roses are tough.

Renewal after Loss
June 21, 2022

When I opened the box more than half of the leaves of my Flame Thrower Redbud tree had fallen off and as I removed it and planted it even MORE leaves fell off! But after planting within 3 days little tiny leaves were forming! It's been 2 weeks now and my tree is filled baby and adolescent leaves - YAY! I think by much anticipated tree is going to make it.
