Bought three 3_4 foot trees last Fall. Contacted them on delivery when received 3 dead looking sticks. Customer service indicated they would be just fine and to go ahead and plant them. Not surprisingly there was no sign of life in April. Sent photos and got a response that photos were not high enough quality and just wait and carry out a scratch test. Now at the beginning of August no leaves no sign of growth. Not wasting time trying to get any response from Customer Service. Clearly not what they advertise. Save your money and try somewhere that you can actually see what they are selling.

Mulberry trees
July 29, 2021

We ordered two mulberry trees at the end of 2020 and asked for a delivery of April. We live in N. H., and our pachage came right on time. We soaked the roots the appropriate amount of time and planted them just below our peach trees. It's now July and our new trees have tripled in size. The leaves are georgeus and plentiful with branches shooting everywhere. We are well pleased and satisfied with this company and their product.

Wide variety of plants at its best. It take patience to plant bare-roots plants that is why i was so happy when they grow,. Truly, everything in TN Nursery is of great quality.

Terrible plants
June 25, 2021

I ordered many plants from tnnursery last year, which means I have given it a year before writing this review as I wanted to be fair. However this is the worst nursery I have ordered from by far and I will never again do business with them. Over 50 percent of the bare-root plants I ordered never grew, and one sizable order ended up being a completely different plant than I had even ordered. I am an experienced gardener, and have ordered bare-root plants from other nurseries with wonderful results. Tnnursery in my opinion is a dishonest company and doing business with them is means taking a risk.

Last year, I bought a bare-root ground fern moss. I received it well packed. I really appreciate TN Nursery's effort in making sure that the plant will arrive healthy. Plus their customer service answer my emails real-time. I am inspired to purchase more moss.

At first I got tense for my first goldenrod was dead for I was instructed to plant it immediately but I did not follow TN nursery's instructions. So when I got my second Goldenrod thru a credit, i planted it immediately and 6 months after. I am a proud owner of a healthy and beautiful cascading golden flowers. Big thank you, TN Nursery.

I purchased my 10 Ostrich ferns in your Nursery. Though I got hold of it bare-roots but it surely grown beautifully now. I cannot help but be thankful of TN Nursery for I bought it inexpensively yet the results are amazing!

Milkweed order
June 21, 2021

I placed an order online for five live milkweed plants. I called the next morning to find out the shipping timeframe. They told me 10 business days I said that is too long I need to cancel my order. I sent another request that I want to cancel my order. Six days later I receive twigs in a bag. That is the worst customer service I've ever dealt with. How insulting that you send me roots not live plants, roots After I said I wanted to cancel my order. Never order from them they do what they want

If you have a vacation planned, better order after your return. I ordered June 9th. But by June 17, the product has not shipped. They would not cancel the order. So now the live plants will ship in 2 days and arrive while we are away on vacation. I will not order from them again.

Rip off
June 17, 2021

They charged me for 15 large ferns, mulberry tree, 4 spruce trees, pine tree, and 5 viburnum in Nov. 2020. All were supposed to be delivered LIVE and 3-4 feet tall for LIVE trees. I received a 2.5 foot dead pine or fern like plant, twice, in a brown box, spring 2021--not packed to survive nor could I revive it. Because they sent two boxes to ship the dead one twice, they claimed I got my entire order. It cost me over $250 to receive one dead plant. BEWARE.

Dear Charles, I would like to apologize for the service you received when purchasing our products. After talking to our team it seems that things should have been explained to you in more detail. I understand that that was not the case and we did not meet your expectations. As you know from using our services in the past, this is not how we operate, and we will continue to train our staff so everyone is on the same page. Thank you for bringing this matter to my/our attention. If you would like to discuss this further, you can reach me at [email protected].

I purchased $160 of creeping phlox which arrived dead. I notified them, and they said it only looked dead and to plant anyway. They said they would issue a refund if it did not come back. It did not. I sent pictures. I sent many emails. I was continually told a refund was coming, and then they stopped answering. There's no way to get a refund from your credit card company once a year has gone by. Bogus promises, terrible customer service, dead plants.

Warning- Negligent. Unprofessional, Rip Offs
June 10, 2021

We got total games and run-around from Tennessee Wholesale Nursery after they sent us the wrong plants along with completely rotten plants. They played games with us and made us jump through hoops for a whole month after we spent several hundred dollars with them - and they refused us any refund or to replace the mislabelled and dead plants. I have several decades of experience as a professional native plant specialist and worked for several major botanical gardens and native plant conservation organizations. These people are the worst around.

After spending hundreds of dollars, we have nothing to show for it. They clearly take advantage of out-of-state buyers. This is a disreputable business and a total rip off/
