Education when it Counta
February 10, 2026

I can't believe I actually look forward to an email, but when it comes from Tennessee nursery, I'm always excited to open it. I have ordered multiple times for them and never been disappointed about the quality or the price of the plants They have a great selection of Native plants, I receive when I have a question I can get a quick answer in their hrlp/chat box if I want to dig deeper into a plant species I can find helpful and informative information. Can't wait for my order. I guess I have a bit of spring fever thank you Tennessee nursery you brighten my day and my garden.

Great plants at a great price!

I am creating a fern garden at my house in Northwest Georgia. TN Nursery made recommendations and provided information to help with planting. I also ordered creeping cedar and partridge berries to add to the wooded areas around my house — looking forward to seeing how they spread.

Tennessee Wholesale Nursery has a good variety of plants, including some that are hard to find. Unfortunately a small number of the plants I have ordered have arrived dead-- hard and not pliable and never produced and growth.

Hi, thank you for your feedback. Bare-root plants often arrive dormant and may feel firm or appear lifeless at first. We recommend performing a scratch test upon arrival to confirm viability. If the tissue beneath the bark is green, the plant is alive.

If a plant is confirmed dead at arrival, please notify us within 5 days so we can honor our warranty. Customers may also choose to purchase an extended warranty for additional coverage. Full warranty details are provided at checkout.

We appreciate you choosing us for hard-to-find plants like pawpaw.

Ordered bare root Elm trees. We were unable to plant them due to construction at our home and unfortunately the trees died. Not TN's fault

Healthy Plants
February 5, 2026

I previously ordered Wisteria and hummingbird vine, and the plants I received were very healthy and once planted have been growing vigorously. They even flowered last fall so I am hoping this spring I will have beautiful purple flowers along my fence line.
This year, I am continuing to expand my shade garden and ordered some Lilly of the valley.
Thanks for having the BOGO sale!

I ordered some woodland perennials 2 years ago and they come up beautifully each spring so far. The bulbs came in great condition and have even survived the drought during our hot Ohio summer. TN Nursery is my go to place for native plants/trees. I'm very happy!

New Customer of bare root trees
February 4, 2026
Updated review

Sent me three bare root persimmons in November. The roots and trunks of the persimmons looked very healthy/vigorous. The fruit trees I ordered were shipped to me on 2/03. I am ordering some Paw Paw trees today. I am hopeful that the trees I have planted and will plant will grow well this coming season.

Trees arrived dead, not dormant.

Trees arrived dead. The refund process was confusing but finally was able to get store credit and ordered new trees for this Spring.

Hi Michael, this is Bailey with TN Nursery. Thank you for sharing your experience. Our trees are shipped dormant, and during dormancy they can sometimes appear lifeless even though they are still viable. A simple way to check is the scratch test—gently scratch the bark with a fingernail; if you see green tissue underneath, the tree is alive.

Dormant plants often don’t show visible growth until spring when temperatures warm and roots begin actively establishing. If you have questions or would like care guidance while waiting for spring growth, please feel free to contact us at help@tnnursery.net
—we’re always happy to help.

When setting up my account, I receive a message telling me I can save 10% off my order, however when I go to put in the code that is provided by the company it doesn't work. The only success I have had is the $5 off code. My orders have been around $100 and saving 10% does help when I'm looking at close to $20 of shipping.

Great Products! Very happy with everything we purchased. We've got everything potted up and growing for spring! The roots on the trees are beautiful, can't wait for them to leaf out. Perennials in the cold frame are already starting to pop out of the dirt.

Previous try
February 1, 2026

4 of 6 died of a mold/fungus infection. The 2 survivors died back to root and resprouted. No sure of infection source root stock or soil. Worth a second try.

Hi, this is Bailey with TN Nursery. Thank you for sharing those details and for giving us another try. Fungal issues can occasionally occur during establishment, often influenced by soil moisture, drainage, and environmental conditions rather than the root stock itself. It’s encouraging to hear that two plants died back and successfully resprouted, which is a normal survival response for many perennials and trees.

We’d be happy to review planting conditions and offer tips to help reduce future issues and improve success. Please feel free to reach out to us directly at help@tnnursery.net —we appreciate your business and the opportunity to assist.

Well, as of now, i think they all died but I will see when the spring comes. Also< i would like more that 2-3 colors of Trillium in my order.

Hi, this is Bailey with TN Nursery. Thank you for giving us another chance—we truly appreciate that. Many of our plants, including trilliums, are shipped dormant and often don’t show visible growth until spring after planting, once conditions are right. It’s not uncommon for them to appear inactive through winter while they establish below ground.

Regarding color selection, mixed trillium orders can include a natural variety, but availability and bloom color can vary seasonally. We’d be happy to review your order and discuss options for future shipments. Please feel free to reach out to us at help@tnnursery.net
so we can assist further.

Mostly Successful First Purchase
January 31, 2026
Updated review

We recently placed an order for plants intended for the pondside area. Currently, all items remain in our nursery, awaiting planting in the spring season. While not all of the river cane appears to have survived, we are optimistic that the crested iris is merely dormant. The cattails, however, are thriving nicely. Overall, we view this as a largely successful effort, particularly given our primary focus on establishing the river cane and cattails along various sections of the water's edge.

We were pleased to have found the cattails we need for our lake. We greatly appreciate the opportunity to purchase them now, so we can grow them indoors until the weather warms up enough to transplant them to their permanent location next spring.
