Could not get ahold of a person
June 11, 2025

Tree said shipped, but when I looked at the tracking, it was not picked up. This status stated for a week. I reached out to talk to someone, but could not reach a human. I shared my concerns thru email with no acceptable response. When I received my tree it was damaged and again could not get ahold of anyone.

Not a great experience at all!
June 11, 2025

The shipment arrived with a tree I didn't order and 2 trees that were dead. I contacted the company to have the wrong item picked up and to inform them 2 trees arrived dead. They said they would replace the 2 trees but never did. Really poor customer service!

Disappointed
June 11, 2025

I am disappointed at the size of the plants. I think I would have been better off going to Lowe's.

I have purchase 3 dozen privacy trees over 3 years…not a one of them died. They are all healthy and growing at a fast clip. My only disappointment is the service. The first yesr, both with my order and a follow-up call, the rep was very pleasant and helpful. The next two years, I got a guy with a heavy accent that was hard to understand and sounded like he was annoyedbat having to answer the phone…very unpleasant.

Tree is alive
June 11, 2025

Tree came on time, beat up a little in transit but alive. I planted and it started growing but at very slow pace. It just stays where it's at.

Would not recommend
June 11, 2025

I bought 6 (3-"4ft)@~>$60 Giant thuja trees. Only 2 survived. The rest died within weeks. Fortunately home Depot that 6ft for $60 and I bought 6 to get my fence going. The home Depot ones are thriving. The packaging from fast growing by UPS was awful not like the videos they show online. Plants were cramped in the boxes, that's probably why they didn't thrive

I Give up
June 11, 2025

Most of my trees came very beautiful, got replacement for those that dont arrive in good condition. Great customer service HOWEVER most of my tropical plants died over the winter, even bringing them in doors, with extra grow lights and reccomendations from customer, still didnt survived, replaced some and still died.Just know the trees can only be replaced ones and some trees dont get replaced when it doesnt have the "one year thrive " At check out. I finally give up my love for these trees. They expensive and nit guranteed to survive, if i decide to grow trees again may be start with local nursery first so I wont loose money if they die on me.

Healthy
June 11, 2025

My hydrangea tree arrived healthy. We planted I it in the ground. It is growing beautifully!
I didn't know that it wasn't deer resistant. The suburban deer found a midnight snack. I couldn't figure out, at first, why the leaves were disappearing. I looked it up online, hydrangeas are one of their favorite plants.
So I went to one of my favorite gardening shops and found an eco friendly deer spray. Now my tree is thriving. I can't wait until it blooms.

Disappointed
June 11, 2025

I have ordered trees in the past and they had at least a few branches established and a well established root ball. My latest order a Crimson King Maple was literally just a stick with some sickly leaves. No branch formation and the roots were barely established in such loose soil. I would have been better off going to lowes or Home Depot.

Overall disappointed
June 1, 2025

Packaging of trees/plants not adequate to protect. Every shipment I received was delivered by Fed Ex and in every case the packaging was damaged (crushed and/or open and very obviously tossed around without attention to directions on boxes). Many of the plants received no longer had soil in their pots, it was just loose in the box. I waited to write a review or request refunds as I was trying to salvage the products I received. I believe I ordered 16 plants/trees and have tried very hard to bring these damaged plants back to life. I have been able to save my 2 daisy's, 3 lavender (out of 4), 1 possibly 2 honeysuckles (out of 3), and possibly one other small bush that I cannot recall it's name. To be very clear, I did not receive any products that were not damaged so I cannot give a clear review on the quality of the plants. I will be reaching out today to request a refund on the other products and will be happy to provide a review of that experience when it is complete.
