I ordered trees and bluebells. Trees are still coming, but the bluebell roots and shoots look very healthy. [Unlike some u ordered last year from a different company]. I am looking forward to them growing in my forest understory.
Thank you so much!
Can't really rate since previous order has not yet come
We purchased 12 trees to form a privacy fence. They are 2 years old and have performed as promises!
Thank you so much!
I ordered and received what looked like sticks. Planted them immediately and they quickly took off and greened up with many sprouts and leaves. Only disappointed they topped the trees so they grow sideways branches instead of straight up like they should.
Thank you so much for your kind review! 🌿 We’re thrilled to hear your Ginkgo trees are thriving — that’s wonderful news! We do lightly top our young trees before shipping to encourage strong lateral branching and a fuller canopy as they mature. This helps them develop into well-shaped, healthy trees long-term. We truly appreciate your order and love hearing about your success!

We bought Dogwood's for my sister-in-law. They are doing amazing and thriving. Customer service was amazing on our last order.
Thank you, Luanne, for sharing your experience and kind words. We’re delighted to hear the Dogwoods are thriving and you felt well supported—looking forward to helping with your next order!
Plants arrived in good shape. The upfront "Fast Shipping Nationwide" disappears when you get the web cart ordering. (So expect shipping charges.)
Thank you so much, Edward, for sharing your honest feedback and glad to hear your plants arrived healthy. We appreciate you spotlighting the shipping charges transparency as we’re always working on making the experience clear and smooth. Your insight helps us serve customers even better.
Placed order 2024 around November, maybe October. Bare root. All of the trees never came out of dormancy. They slipped into "deadness". Two or three vines lived. Finding how i get credit for the dead trees and vine became impossible for me.
Larry, I’m truly sorry to hear about your disappointing experience and that so many of your plants didn’t thrive as expected. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention and want to make the credit process clearer and easier for you—please reach out directly so we can resolve this promptly. Thank you for your honest feedback; it helps us improve.
TN Nursery has such a wide variety of plants and trees. It was great fun to look at and choose the one that I wanted. The shipping was fast, and the baggies were perfect. I have ordered three times already, and I have been satisfied each time with the ease of ordering and the shipping. Thank you, TN Nursery.
Jill, thank you so much for your enthusiastic, kind words and continued trust in us! Knowing that the variety, packaging, and services spark joy as you select and receive your plants means the world to our team. We’re excited to support our gardening adventures.
I bought a Bald Cypress for my wife as a gift to replace a tree that had to come down. It was 3' tall when it arrived. It is now over 7' tall and is absolutely gorgeous! Just order some Dogwoods to put in the same area.
Thank you so much!
Very satisfied. I ordered 10 more trees today. All trees I have received from TN are vibrant and healthy. My 1-2 ft red maples planted last Fall are over 6' by this Fall.
Eddie, it’s wonderful to hear how beautifully your red maples have grown and that you’re so happy with your new trees. We’re excited to help your garden flourish even more and look forward to supporting you with your upcoming additions. If you ever have questions or need guidance, we’re here to help every step of the way!
I ordered a fern collection for my growing area and I received more plants than what was listed on the site. They were all great quality, large bare root plants. They arrived within a couple days.
Thank you!
The ordering process fails to describe the work the nursery does to prepare the plants for shipping. That prep time is totally fair to have - but the info should be included in the details about delivery time so that we don't develop false expectations.
We understand how delivery timelines can be confusing. Because we ship freshly dug, bare-root plants, there’s a short preparation period before shipping to ensure quality and dormancy. This process keeps your plants healthy and ready to thrive.
We appreciate your suggestion and will work on making this clearer on our website so customers know exactly what to expect. Thank you for helping us improve!

I've had mixed success but am willing to give this another try. Because a free tree is shipped with the order it made up for the one that never rooted. Two shrubs and one tree have done well! They are shipped promptly and are well packaged.
Joyce, thank you for sharing your honest experience and for giving us another chance. We're glad to hear some of your plants have thrived, and we truly appreciate your patience as we continue to improve. Looking forward to helping your garden grow stronger with every order!
I've purchased trees from your nursery before, and they're all thriving beautifully! I was pleasantly surprised when you included extra plants with my purchase last year — such a thoughtful gesture. That wonderful experience made me come back again. Thank you for the great service and healthy plants!
Thank you so much!
I received 5 paw paw trees, planted them immediately and properly, and none of them showed any signs of life.
Hi Joseph, we're genuinely sorry to hear none of your paw paw trees survived after planting and understand how disappointing that can be. Please reach out so we can make things right and help you with correcting this experience. help@tnnursery.net
What I did recieved appeared to be dead not just dormant. Some grew some did not. I am trying again with some trees vs the plants I previously purchased.
Thank you, Dawn, for sharing your experience—I truly appreciate your honest feedback as it helps us improve. I’m sorry some of your plants didn’t meet expectations and hope moving to trees brings you rewarding results. Please reach out if we can assist you further along your gardening journey.
I have placed two orders before this one and have been very happy with the plants that I bought. This is a very reliable nursery and I highly recommend it
Thank you so much, Sharon, for your kind words and continued trust in us. We're thrilled to hear our plants have brought you delight, and we're grateful for your recommendation. Looking forward to supporting your garden for many seasons to come!
Some of trees in past orders have been lousy specimens. Some have done great. Feedback given in the past resulted in nothing.

I tried to return a tree, but I needed a "customer #, which I didn't have. I didn't know where to find it.
