PLANT QUALITY HAS BEEN MIXED
October 21, 2025

I received 5 paw paw trees, planted them immediately and properly, and none of them showed any signs of life.

Plant smaller than expected
October 21, 2025

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.

Disappointed
October 18, 2025

Some of trees in past orders have been lousy specimens. Some have done great. Feedback given in the past resulted in nothing.

I previously ordered Chinese Chestnut Tree, Pecan Tree, Weeping Willow, and a Pawpaw Tree. None of them survived the summer.

Thank you for giving us another chance — we truly appreciate it! 🌳 Sometimes new trees can struggle through their first summer, especially during heat or drought, but fall is actually the best time to plant bare-root seedlings. Cooler temperatures and moist soil help the roots establish before winter, giving them a stronger start next spring. We’re wishing you great success with this next planting — we’re rooting for you!

My first purchase for our landscaping business. The client was pleased with the sheet moss we installed on her property. Worked well for covering any muddy/dirty areas until they rooted.

Overall good selection
October 10, 2025

My individual plant purchases generally have done well. However, I bought a wildflower package that was curated to where I live. Those plants did not do very well. Only 2 bulbs out of about 20 survived after being planted.

Lucas, thank you for sharing your feedback and I’m glad most of your plant purchases have thrived! We appreciate you giving the wildflower package a try and will look into ways to improve batch vitality. Your observations truly help us grow alongside our customers.

Bare root trees are easy to plant and they have always done well for me. I have a big lot so I need a lot of trees and shrubs. TN Nursery makes it affordable and easy to add these to my property.
