My last purchase created a perfect ambiance in my garden. I will definitely make another purchase. I am thankful to find your website and place my order without hassle.

Thanks, Tn for the nice plants. I am very satisfied with the plant quality I received from this nursery.

I had 75 cedars delivered for fall 2020, I planted properly, staked, watered, etc. In a matter of days they were all turning brown and all 75 died. I sent pics early when they were dying, I emailed them back in spring and they replied they would all have to be returned for store credit. I had my wife take them for shipping they said I would be cheaper to drive them back than ship them, not possible. Very disappointed and am out several hundred dollars. I should have read all the reviews first so I could have saved my $585.00!

Received dead plants, not even one woke up. Used rich soil and planted by instruction I found in internet. There Was no instructions from nursery how to plant. Customer service just said that they are sorry, promised that they will resolve an issue and did nothing. Better pay more and get quality products somewhere more reliable.

I purchased blueberry plants that I received in a dormant state as was to be expected, after planting not a single plant showed any sign of life ( the blueberry plants that I planted at the same time in the same way from another company where growing and coming out of dormancy successfully) I contacted
Tennessee Wholesale Nursery and was told I had to let them know within 24 hours of receiving the plants for the warranty to be any good. I explained that I did and was told the plants where fine and to keep an eye on them. Bottom line they do not stand behind their product and they are running a scam operation. One star because I had to choose something, it should be a 0

This company ships dead trees. Tells you they are "dormant" and instructs you to plant them even though they're dried out and have no root growth. Then after spring comes they think it's too late to complain.
THEY WANT YOU TO PAY SHIPPING TO RETURN DEAD TREES AND THEY DO NOT GIVE REFUNDS. DEAL WITH THEM IF YOU WANT TO PAY HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS FOR DEAD TREES.
Have photo... it won't upload.

This company is a fraud. I purchased 3 pine trees from them, and all arrived sick and were dead within one month. They do not offer refunds, but said they would give me $3 off and free shipping on my next order. Gee, a whole $3 off after wasting more than $100 on their garbage?

And they don't even package bare root plants with wet newspaper, soil, or hydrogel. So the roots were all bone dry after being sent across the country. No wonder they all died. Total rip-off. And they refuse to answer their phone. Go ahead, just try to talk to someone before you order.

Bottom line: Avoid Tennessee Wholesale Nursey unless you want to be treated like garbage and prefer dead plants and trees to healthy ones. Absolute garbage.

This place is a joke. 100%. If I could give the zero stars I would. If you wanna be ripped off then by all means, shop here. Took them 6 weeks to ship & The trees were dead and broke in half when I received them. TN nursery after numerous emails finally messaged me back but only to tell me I'm screwed. They don't refund money! Wow. They suck! $180 down the toilet.

I ordered three plants, planted and cared for per instructions. The tree did not make it. The two others are barely alive, no buds in them and won't likely survive. They say I have to send them back at my own expense, but only after they have had opportunity to work with me for 7 days. They won't work with me, just give me the run around. Total scam.

I requested 2 patio blueberry bushes in late Feb. 2021. I received 2 sticks in early March that said it was dormant one did not have visible roots! I planted after last snow and it's still 2 sticks sticking out the ground. I call LVMM cause no one answer the phone so I sent an email of what I received. I received response email the following day saying basically we don't stand behind what we sell and we will not send a replacement plant or return your money. The email further said I can come to TN for an in store credit! I live in TX. Buyers be aware this is not the place to shop for quality plants. Good for throwing away money only!

I spent a lot of money last year on ferns from TN nursery. Only 1 fern grew. I contacted them and they were unwilling to provide any compensation. I will never shop there again. In hindsight I found multiple complaints lodged about their poor service.

I've ordered a couple of times from this place that goes under several names. I will never order from them again. While everything is not wrong, their list of native plants included several present but non-native plants and some plants are mislabeled. I ordered native black raspberry (rubus) and got Japanese wineberry, a horrible invasive instead. A plant nursery should know this but native plants evolved in the same area as the pollinators, birds and insects that all complement each other. Plants that were introduced from other countries, but have naturalized here (escaped into the wild) are not native. Do your research folks and don't skimp.

The worst Nursery I have ever worked with!

Be aware when buying more than 100 plants their "Warranty" rules are only playing in their hands!

- Really unprofessional Customer Service
- They trick you when buying more then 100 plants there is no warranty
At all!
- This is the biggest rip-off I have ever seen!

I just lost 500$!

I'm the most relaxed person on earth but making business with them is horrible!

I've ordered 290 beech seedlings in March... the box arrived, a bit damaged but the seedling were fine. I was able to put them in to the ground an hour later so they were safe and ready to grow. I've made some pics for the nursery in the beginning from the box also the seedlings when they first arrived just to let them see how they looked like.
I was wondering about 4 weeks later why there was no growth to see at all but hey maybe we still had a couple of cooler days so it takes a while. Two weeks ago I contacted them to give them an update that all of the seedlings are actually dead so brown in the inside which was and is a pity because I planted these seedlings before in another backyard without any issues.
I have to say their customer service is a mess! They only send me the warranty link... here we are... however I made all the "tests" stated in the warranty and this week I went back and told them there is not one seedling who survived!
I was very polite and explained in detail in my email also was sending pics as proof how the seedlings look like. Well they didn't care and I got the warranty link again and promised in writing I will receive a 100% in-store credit when I send some of the seedlings back. Well no problem at all I just ask for a written confirmation on this to make sure everything will be smoothly withing the return process.
Then another person, they never tell you a name, wrote that was a mistake I can send some of the dead seedling back and will receive a 60% discount for my next purchase! What the hell!

The lady, supposedly the Manager, was not really helpful and actually took a deep breath when I ask her to show me online their T&Cs... she then only said sorry for the wrong information about the 100% credit that does't apply for orders more than 100 plants! So now I can order them again and get 60% discount... which nobody in this world will do!

What a horrible business. I ordered plants that were shipped May 11th. They arrived May 30th. After 19 days in shipping, they were completely dead. The nursery website states that plants are good for 10 days in shipping. This nursery confirmed via my photo that they were dead, but refused to refund my money since I "received my shipment." Absolute nonsense. Find any other nursery to order from instead of Tennessee Wholesale Nursery.

I paid $96 for 100 bare root creeping phlox. I specifically noted to be sure they sent me white. I was very excited about my purchase and highly anticipated the arrival of my white creeping phlox to fill the bare area off my patio.

What I received was a nasty Ziploc baggie just thrown in a box, partially open, dirt everywhere. The nasty baggie had "100 creepin phina." written on it and yes, missing the g! The plants were bone dry (not packed in gel like they state on their website), not bare root, not creeping phlox and not white. They were regular (teenie tiny tangled rats nest) roots in 3 clumps with rubber bands AND they were purple! I was seriously ticked off! Oh! Did I mention I paid $18+ for shipping? $18 for a dirty, nasty baggie in a tiny box! No packaging. No moisture for the roots. Nothing protective whatsoever for the plants.

When I contacted TN Nursery they basically and snidely told me "We have the right to substitute and send you anything we feel like sending you!" Really? Why not send me a lemon tree or a rose bush?

Needless to say, I was livid so I reported it to my credit card company. I received my temporary credit from Chase while the charge back went through the process and eventually got the permanent refund.

So basically, TN Nursery advertises thousands of gorgeous items for great prices on their website. You painstakingly go through it and choose SPECIFIC PLANTS for your SPECIFIC GARDEN/AREA and they think they can send you ANY PLANTS OF THEIR CHOOSING and you're supposed to accept it and plant what they send you in your garden even though what they sent you isn't what you want, might not match your scheme and may not even thrive in your chosen area!

It's absurd and it's a scam so save your hard earned money and look elsewhere. I'm shocked at myself because I research everything to death! I let my guard down because this company seemed so legit as did the reviews on their website. IT'S ALL FAKE! What I received DID NOT come from a nursery! It most likely came from the scammers back yard!

Also, if you read their "terms" you'll see how they attempt to scare people away from filing disputes/charge backs and that's because they've probably had so many filed against them. What doesn't make sense is why they scam people. Charge backs cost vendors big bucks when they lose a case. The whole thing is a joke and I'm shocked the website hasn't been removed. I read somewhere they changed their "business" name like 5 times!

So my dream of a blanket of white creeping phlox off my patio is not going to happen this year because of the SCAM known as Tennessee Wholesale Nursery or TN Nursery. How it's possible that any human would scam another human this way is beyond me especially during these unknown times during the Covid pandemic. It is beyond self-serving and evil!

I will post a photo of what I received as soon as I get my new iPad to desktop cable.
