I ordered two 5' Bing Cherry Trees and the bonus Empress Tree. What I received were insect ridden trees that I cannot plant in my orchard because of the infestation. Also there was no Empress Tree in the box yet the shipping label said there was one. This company is not reputable. I am waiting for their response. I warn everyone that is considering placing an order with them not do it... this is a scam and the company is unscruplous... John Murphy/ Huntsville, AR
Ordered a empress tree from them supposed to be 1 gallon container. Shipping was fast but that is the only good thing I can say about them. What I received was a 4 foot box with about a cup of loose potting soil and a 1/4 inch nub, literally the size of my fingernail. No leaves or anything green. I paid $30.00 in total. I sent an email with pictures and number asking for a refund still haven't heard anything. I wrote a review on there website but it is nowhere to be found I guess they only post the positive ones. What a scam, I will never use this site again and tell everyone I know to avoid it!
I ordered 2 apple trees last Fall for over $100.
One didn't look too alive, but I planted both
Anyway and watered them. This Spring I
Saw that the bark of both trees had been
Devastated by rabbits. One may survive,
But the other is dead. I subsequently
Found out that nurseries sell fruit trees with
Protective shields for this reason. A company
That sells just trees should be well aware of that and provide
This inexpensive protection, or at least inform consumers
That this is an issue that frequently arises
So they can take their own precautions.
I ordered a skyrocket juniper from this web site, which claimed the tree shipped would be 1-2 feet tall. I received an 11" sapling. Better to go to your local nursery or shop with a more trusted web site.
I ordered two orange trees December 22,2013 and they said the trees would arrive 5-7 business days; they were never delivered and today is February 7. I called two weeks after the initial order was placed to give them the benefit of the doubt, because of the harsh weather conditions in the east coast this winter. They said. "Oh... Mr. Anonymous the address was put into our database incorrectly so we apologize and you should receive your trees in about 4 days. Again, we waited and nothing! I called again and the customer service representative said she would check the status and call me back in 20 minutes and guess what? To my dismay they never returned my call advising me of the status. What did I do? I intentionally waited until today, February 7,2014 and demanded that my $90 be returned to my credit card. It's been two months and I have gone through a horrific whirlpool with this company. As I am also a business owner here in Los Angeles... I do not conduct business like fast growing trees does. Wow! I do not recommend that company to anyone. Stay with Lowes or Home Depot to buy your trees. Just horrible, horrible, horrible.

Bought an empress tree for $40. It's can in half roted and only 1-1/2in tall. When I buy a tree, I expect a tree. I contacted the company about it being half roted away and complained about the size. They would not refund me my money and said that they would ship me a new one. When I received my replacement, it was 1" dead and molded. The smell was HORRIBLE. I can't stress to people to STAT AWAY from this company. They are crooks! You get more for your money and a LOT less expense shopping on onther sites such as eBay.
Misleading advertisements leading you to buy plants that will not grow in your area, "Cold Hardy from Green Bay to Tampa Bay" once you get the tiny little stick of a plant that you paid $100 for (looks like a $15 plant) you find it grows north of Florida ONLY IF YOU BRING IT INSIDE! Scam! Rip Off!
Great experience. Customer service was friendly & helpful. One tree had crooked trunk & they replaced it at no charge & told me to keep the crooked one.
Trees were larger than described & appear very healthy. Would definitely order from them again!
I'm surprised by all the negative comments. We ordered two Dawn Redwoods, a critically endangered conifer that I had read about elsewhere. I was a bit skeptical of ordering 4 to 5 foot trees by mail, but they arrived on time and were beautiful with lots of new growth. Very healthy trees. I like the way they were packaged for protection. Anyway, I had a good experience with this company and would use them again.
Ordered three trees on April 30. The service rep told the they would ship immediately as did the email confirmation that I received that day. Four weeks later, still no shipment. I've called them every Monday only to be told that they will ship next week. This company is a first class SCAM. I have also filed a claim with the BBB. Save your time and money.
This company is a nightmare. I placed an order a month ago, my card was charged and still no shipment. Their customer service does not respond to inquiries, and on one of the few occasions where I was able to reach a human (after literally being put on hold for 15 minutes) I was told that it would "ship tomorrow" It never has, and I am out over $100. Please take my advice and buy your trees from a reputable company!
I placed three dogwoods back on April 23. Last week I called again, the customer service said that the order will be arrived on May 4. Today (May 3) I called again the customer service said it will be arrived next week on May 10. It is very long and I am so disappointed. I was trying to canceled but the customer service said that they will cut 25% of my purchase. I do not want to lose my money and I am stuck... I will not suggested this website to anyone... ever.
Bought a magnolia last year for which I paid $79.99. It had one leaf all year, but I had high hopes for this year. Well, it now has about 6 leaves and much dead wood. Save your money and DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS SITE
I ordered a tree ten days ago... shipping is supposed to be "immediate or within 6-9 days." My tree was supposed to be in stock. I have sent two emails and have gotten nothing but an automated response. Seems like a scam. I am attempting to cancel payment with my credit card.
I ordered a dwarf mango tree and a 5-6' guava tree. My order was delivered a week ago and when I opened the box the guava tree was completely dead. It could not have died in three days in transit had it been packed alive. I took picture of it before taking it out of the box and then took pictures after taking it out of the box and emailed the pictures to them the same evening. They have not responded to my emails and I'm being given run around with the phone calls, telling me that they have back log of the emails and will respond when they get to it. Bad customer service. I will never order from them again.
I purched a large order from this site. All trees delivered were some of the smallest and poorest looking trees I have seen. One of the trees died and since I didn't purchase the warranty they would not replace it. Terrible customer service, I would not recommend one bit. BUYER BEWARE!
Don't waste your money. I purchased trees from this site for the simple reason that I wanted fast growing trees that would look established in a short period of time. Instead, I received 4 of the skinniest, saddest looking trees I have ever seen. I will be retired and probably no longer living here before these things look like real trees. Do yourself a favor and buy locally.
I ordered 25 strawberry plants, a fruit cocktail tree and 4 blueberry bushes. All of them thrived except 2 blueberry plants. I contacted them after a week and was told to wait a few weeks. After another week they looked dead so I contacted them again and sent a picture, i just recieved 2 new blueberry plants that are even taller than the originals. It took 4 days from when they received the pictures! Great customer service. I can't wait for the fruit!
These guys are in cheating business. I bought 3 trees, and were told that they are potted ones, but once they arrived one of them were in bare root condition. I called them and asked for a refund(b/c I could have bought the same thing at a cheaper price elsewhere), but they simply apologized, and did not care.
I would have given this company zero stars if I could. I sent a memorial gift and it never got there. They said they could not deliver it. I checked to make sure I gave them the right address. It was correct. An address in a suburb of Dallas Texas. How could they not find it. The house has been there for over years. Than because they couldn't deliver the plant I cancelled the order and they charged me a 25% restock fee. I had to pay for something that was never delivered. Not my fault they messed up but I had to pay for their mistake! This company is a BIG rip off!
Answer: Cancel your order now before it's too late, go to a local nursery and save yourself some money and unwarranted aggravation, these folks are not honorable.
Answer: I ordered 3 autumn blaze maples. They have been in the ground for 2 years now and have yet to turn red in the fall. I did some research and found that they only turn red if the temperature conditions are right. I live in Idaho and we basically skipped fall this year and went straight into winter. So once again the leaves just turned brown. I am hoping to finally get a display next year.
Answer: The same thing is happening to me. My tree died and they keep saying they're going to make good and nothing happens. Real crooks, this company.
