False hope
April 11, 2025

I was browsing for trees that would ship to my state using the sites filters specifically for my state. I found the tree I wanted, and in the description my state was not listed on the "does not ship to" list. The item also let me add to cart and check out whereas trees that don't ship to my state will not even let me add to my cart. A couple days after I paid for the order it was cancelled with the explanation that it does not ship to my state. I went back to that specific tree to see if they had updated the listing to not ship to my state, but it still said it would ship here and would allow me to add to cart. If the company knows it won't ship a tree to a specific state, it should be updated on the product rather than just cancelling orders as they come in.
Do not trust the "does not ship to" list. Just assume they won't ship to your state and find the plant elsewhere.

Hardy Avocado trees
April 11, 2025

I ordered 3 Cold Hardy Avocado trees. One really nice dark green healthy leaned tree arrived out of 3
I called customer service and explained I had only received 1 of the 3 I had ordered. The customer service representative was nice and told me that you were out of stock. She stated she would give me a credit and I explained to her I didn't want a credit I wanted my 2 trees. After multiple emails it was determined that I would wait until month for the trees to be in stock again to fulfill my original order. Order *******040 was delivered 3/26/2025 To my disappointment the 2 trees did not look anything like my first tree. In fact they looked like droopy ratty trees. The leaf color was not dark green like the 1st tree and there were a lot less leaves I have all 3 trees in my garage in a window getting ready to plant them. My 1st tree is beautiful sprouting new dark green foliage. One of the other trees is perking up though the leaf color is a light green. The 3rd trees leaves are light green and hanging drooping looking unhealthy. I called Customer service and explained my disappointment about the quality of the 2 trees. She gave me a $60.00 credit which was nice. I used it when I purchased 2 Bottlebrush and Lavender plant. We will see how these plants arrive. I am still not happy with state of the 2 Avocado trees.

Nice small tree
April 11, 2025

Good communication as to when tree will be shipped. Only time will tell how well it will grow. My tree started to produce leaves in lower part. So we'll see.

Great plants once they arrive
April 11, 2025

I ordered 4 different types of plants. The blueberry bush arrived first then a few weeks later the avocado tree and still waiting a long time for the raspberry bushes. The plants are very nice and healthy just take awhile to arrive.

Still awaiting plants
April 11, 2025

Originally on the website I ordered 4 lavendar plants to be delivered as a get well gift in 1-2 days. When they did not arrive I called and was told they would not be delivered until the end of March. Then I was told they would not be delivered until the middle of April. I am still waiting to see if they will be sent.
The person has gotten well and will not be able to plant the plants if they arrive. Very discouraged about the whole process.

Plant arrived dead
April 11, 2025

Sadly one of six slim bottlebush plants arrived dead. It took way too long with CS to settle the problem. I was questioned over and over acting as if it was my fault. Finally agreed to get a store credit since they were out of BBS.

Furit and Berry
April 11, 2025

I bought both, I thought that packaging was weird, due to the tree and bush being shipped sideways. So a lot of dirt came out of the pots. I feel that they should have been boxed separately so they could've been upright.

Wonderful Experience
April 11, 2025

I purchased quite a few fruit trees, vines, and ornamental grasses. All the plants came in great condition except one tree was damaged. Customer service responded right away and sent out a replacement. The person was kind and professional. The items are thriving and I am a very satisfied happy customer.
