We monitor reviews for authenticity
My first time ordering was good, except that it took 8 days for my dogwood trees to make it to Michigan once they shipped. They lived through the eexperience and so did I..
It looked like I was shipped a box of twigs, I was concerned - especially after reading some reviews. HOWEVER - as per the directions said, I let them soak - for maybe a day longer than I should've (no time to plant). I know have three thriving hydrangeas and two dog woods. My lilies of the valley didn't seem to take and the jury is still out of the lilac bushes. They may just be slow growers - I did get a few green leaves so if they fail, it's probably on me. My biggest issue is, I am running out of space to plant these trees!
Hi Amanda, thank you so much for sharing your garden journey with us! We're delighted to hear your hydrangeas and dogwoods are thriving—momentum like that is such a gratifying reward. If space gets tight, let us know; we can help brainstorm some creative planting ideas to keep your gardening excitement growing!
The same as this experience, plants are minimal, roots, rhizomes healthy but need time grow
Thanks so much for sharing your experience, David! We're happy to hear the plants arrived healthy, and we completely agree—good things take a little time to grow. Looking forward to watching those roots thrive alongside you!
I lost a couple of trees that were under warranty and after I submitted photos to show that they were not living, they will replace without question.
Hi Ian, thank you so much for your kind words and for sharing your experience. We're thrilled to hear the warranty process was smooth—we truly value honest feedback and making things right when they matter. Looking forward to supporting your upcoming gardening projects!
They have a large variety of plants pay attention to the shipping date year and season so you don't get frustrated. Plants arrive in very good condition.
Thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback, Walter! We're delighted to hear that the timing and quality of your plant deliveries have met your expectations—your attention to those details really enhances the experience. We look forward to helping your garden grow even more in the future!
Good experience. Plants arrived and were as advertised
Thank you so much, Sharon, for your wonderful feedback. We're delighted to hear that your plants arrived as expected and that you had a positive experience with us. Your support means a great deal, and we look forward to helping you with your gardening needs again!
I can't afford ridiculously high prices other stores want to charge. I received my order in excellent condition, followed instructions and plants are thriving.
Thank you, Rebecca, for sharing your positive experience. We're glad to hear the plants arrived healthy and are thriving, and that our straightforward care guidelines helped along the way. It’s important to us to offer quality at a fair price, and your support means the world.
Plants were not guaranteed as said at time of purchase. I was given store credit rather than replacing the original bushes. I have to pay shipping and more. I will not use you again.
We do guarantee our plants, but as clearly stated on our site, our standard warranty is 5 days after delivery. If a claim is made within that time, we offer store credit or replacements, depending on availability. Shipping is not covered unless the extended 1-year warranty was purchased at checkout.
If you’d like me to review your case personally, please email help@tnnursery.net with your order number — I’ll do my best to make it right.

The plants arrive healthy! Most of them have survived the ones that have died was due to planting person error.lol
I enjoy watching the TikTok videos too.
Thank you, Patti, for sharing your experience and love of watching our TikTok videos! We're so glad the plants are thriving, and we appreciate your kind understanding—it’s always a joy to be part of your gardening journey.
Not everything has budded out that I purchased this spring, but those that did are amazing…..
Thank you, Karen, for sharing your thoughtful feedback with us. We’re glad to hear some of your plants are thriving and appreciate your patience with those still to bud—many follow unique growth timelines, and we’re here to support you every step of the way. Please reach out anytime if you need guidance or have questions for future seasons!
Bushes stunted and did not do well even though they sere planted with care and watered.
Stunted growth is usually a temporary issue and often corrects itself by the next growing season, especially when plants are properly cared for. If your plants arrived damaged or failed within 5 days of delivery, we would have gladly replaced them under our standard warranty.
If you purchased the 1-year extended warranty at checkout, you’re also covered — but we need to hear from you directly.
Please email me at help@tnnursery.net
with your order number and photos, and I will assist you personally. I’m Bailey, and I’ll make sure your issue is reviewed fairly and promptly.
Thank you,

Large variety of plants and shrubs for my upcoming projects
Thank you so much, Keesha! We’re thrilled to hear our selection helped inspire your upcoming projects. Looking forward to supporting you with all your planting plans moving forward!
I bought lawn moss (twice) which is hard to find. I am buying more to cover more area.
Jennifer, thank you so much for coming back to shop with us again! We're glad to hear the lawn moss is doing just what you need, and we're excited to help you cover even more ground!
I am hoping that they will thrive in my wood land garden!
Thank you so much, Lisa, for sharing your initial thoughts. We’re excited to hear about your woodland garden and look forward to supporting you every step of the way as you nurture your new plants to thrive together. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need any tips or guidance along the journey!
I have been very pleased with the status of the fruit trees when shipped and their growth once planted.
Thank you for sharing your positive experience, Richard; it’s wonderful to hear that the fruit trees arrived in excellent condition and are thriving. We are committed to providing quality plants that grow well and bring joy to our customers. Your satisfaction truly encourages us to keep improving.
I ordered 25 Green Giant Arborvitae plants in November 2024. 8 of them died and I contacted TN Nursery for replacements. Instead they gave me a partial refund in the store credit, but only enough to buy 1 replacement plant (or 2 if I waited for a buy-one-get-one offer). When I received the store credit, I was told it never expired. Then when I tried to use it 4 months later, the website said the credit expired. All I wanted was replacements for the 8 plants that died (now 13, by the way). Instead, I was only able to get 2, and only after going back and forth with customer service numerous times.
Joshua, we’re truly sorry for the frustrating experience you’ve had—with replacements and understanding store credit—your disappointment is completely understandable. We appreciate your feedback and want to make this right by revisiting your situation personally to ensure you receive the caring support you deserve; please reach out directly to help@tnnursery.net so we can resolve this quickly. Thank you for giving us the opportunity to improve.
When I contacted TN about the trees nobody got back to me. I'm trying tn again and hope I will be successful this time.
Barby, we’re sorry to hear your paw paw trees didn’t survive and regret any delay in our response. We truly care about your experience and encourage you to reach out again anytime so we can assist you properly. Your satisfaction is important, and we hope to make things right.
Previous purchase came with healthy roots. No damage during shipping. Good size roots and plump. Unlike the big box stores. Planting this year. Let's see what comes up in the spring.
Leah, thank you for sharing your positive experience! We’re thrilled your purchase arrived healthy and sound, and we’re eager to see those plants thrive in the spring alongside you. Keep us posted on how everything grows!
