July 9, 2021

I purchased three trees…two out of three are not doing well ay all. I contacted customer service who walked me through the process…my message was sent but never received any message from customer who now claims that they had never received the message, though i received confirmation. I will attempt to contact them again.

Horrible response to a problem
July 9, 2021

I recently bought two cherry trees - a Bing and a Montmorency. When I opened the box the Montmorency was on top and the Bing was smashed underneath it. What few leaves the Bing had were torn off. While I wasn't happy, I assumed both trees would be okay and I planted them. In less than a month the Bing was dead. 20' apart, exact same planting conditions, water, weather, etc. One is thriving and the other is dead. When I got in touch with customer service there were some messages back and forth, photos sent, etc. before they acknowledged the tree was dead. All I had to do is retroactively pay them another $40 for a warranty and they'd refund my money. That's insane. They shipped a bad product and want more money to make it right. Look, I know that there's likely a good amount of customer error with something like live plants, but I did everything right in this case. I should have complained when I first opened the box and saw the damage from shipping. I mistakenly believed that it would be okay and if it wasn't they'd make good on it. My bad. Now I know what kind of business it is. Give it some thought before you give them your money. There are other options available.

Be sure to reach out to us within the first 5 days if there are any concerns with your tree so we can cover it 100%. Beyond this we do have our 30 day guarantee which covers a replacement if shipping costs are covered. Since there are so many environmental factors that can cause a tree to perish, we offer that 1 year warranty at checkout as an added protection for your plant. We are so sorry for any inconvenience!

Never received this product.
July 9, 2021

I placed this order and the FedEx Center in Ocala said it came damaged and it was sent back. I re-ordered it and it made it as far as that same FedEx Center but never to my house. I was refunded the amount of purchase, but I would rather have received the bushes.

Overall the experience was good. Product arrived quickly and in good condition. Ordered two Miss Kim's, one plant was robust and the other was thin. Let's hope the thin one catches up.

It looks like you selected our 4-5 ft tree and not the 10 pack of 1-2 ft trees. We are so sorry for the confusion!

The plant that was delivered had wilted, dry crunchy leave and all the flower buds were dead or dying. When I called customer service the person brushed me off telling me it probably just needed water.

We're so sorry to hear how your plant arrived! Shipping stress can cause plants leaves to wilt and even drop off, but they almost always make a full recovery! Being that we are plant people, we always like to ask our customers to give the plants a chance and not to give up on them too early. Please do not worry, we have your plant covered 100%. Just check back in with us if for some reason it begins to decline and we'll ship a new one!
