I ordered 18 Stella De Oro Daylilies and they sent me the wrong plants. They will not fix the problem. So beware when you buy something from this company. The picture shows what they sent me

Disappointed
June 19, 2024

I didn't realize I was receiving bare root plants for next year. They basically looked like dead twigs. Was hoping for color this year. Disappointed.

Easy website, prices were great. The buy one get one free was a great deal for ferns. They also have other plants to choose from. My bare rooted ferns arrived in excellent condition and fast shipping.

Dried Switches - Want A Refund
June 16, 2024

***
If you have been scammed by this company, please report this to the Attorney General of TN: https://www.tn.gov/attorneygeneral/working-for-tennessee/consumer/file-a-complaint.html

Purchase 2 x PawPaw saplings. They arrived as dried up twigs wrapped in newspaper. They looked like dried switches from the deep south to spank some kid named Junebug with. I contacted their support. They said the plants were "dormant" in April and to give them a couple of months.

Well, it's June. I've trimmed (they were dry and nearly snapped in half), re-potted, watered, cared, and even gave a flowering tree feed to them and these things are still breakable twigs. TN Wholesale Nursery will not refund. I honestly don't trust their products to want to reorder. I don't want to go through this buffoonery again. I just want a refund.

Update 06/17/2024: Posted the email response I received after 2 months of contacting them about these dead plants. They swear they see "dull green". They do not like being tagged on Instagram (@tnnursery). So they blocked me to prevent me from tagging them to those dead twigs they sent me.

Update 09/01/2024: Vendor said that they honor the warranty with a "scratch test". The photos are of the scratch test and they do not honor their warranty. They sent dead plants out to a lot of people who spent their money. Now they are ignoring their own policies. Avoid this vendor. They are scammers.

Results unknown
June 15, 2024

I received two large bare roots and a few other pieces of bare roots. They've been planted, but I have no idea if they will grow and blossom. I would not purchase plants this way again.

"May Pinks" creeping phlox
June 12, 2024

I planted my 8 creeping phlox in 2 pots temporarily since it is sooooo hot here... they seem to be doing all right. Plan to plant in garden in fall when it's cooler to get them situated before low temps.

Informative site
June 12, 2024

Lovely site. It's well organized and has enough info to make informed decisions about most plants. I would prefer to see details of the plant's growth habits in a grid or list. Scanning through paragraphs to find mature plant height and spread, zone, and soil requirements makes the shopping process a lot more tedious than it needs to be.
More general photos of the plants would also be helpful. Many of the photos are generic, and most of the photos don't show completely mature plants, which would be helpful.
Anyhoo - great nursery! I haven't received any of my orders yet, but I'm confident I'll be happy with what I get.

I was very pleased to discover that there were actually 4 little plants in the bag; I assumed I was getting one. They were healthy, well-rooted and moist. I was very pleased with this order 😁

Promo codes were tricky to get to work right. Plus o didn't realize the ferns would come as dry roots…did I miss that? I'm a pretty digital person, having been responsible for that at a bank. Finally your site says fast shipping with no commitments or estimate of when the shipment would arrive. When I asked, your customer service response was we give ourselves 10-14 business days to ship but you try to get it out asap. The shipment did arrive faster but realize that this experience falls short of current day e-commerce expectations. I planted the day I got them…to date, no sign of life.
