I splurged and bought the large size. They were well worth it. Big, beautiful and healthy. Cold snap occurred after planting but they appear to be adjusting
Fast shipping arrived great condition plants doing well in ground!! Would order again
Plants arrived safely, and were very well packaged. Healthy also! Highly recommend, thk you!
My plants have adapted well and already have small blooms!
My order of Little Bunny Fountain grass arrived on time and all looked great. They are still thriving well. Was pleased to find these as I think they will work well for my front of house display.
Healthy little plants. Love the beautiful blue-green color.
This plant is in full bloom right now. Love the look!!!
Hope to see it grow!
The plants arrived in very good condition. My first time ever to order a plant. They are planted and doing well at this point. I’m looking forward to seeing them bloom.
I love gardenias! I have had trouble with some in the past so I was excited to try this one. I ordered 2 and they seem stronger and less fragile compared to other gardenias I’ve had, so I’m excited to see how they grow! The only down side is that they came very tiny so it will take a year or so to get bigger.
Haven’t put it in the ground yet, but it is very healthy looking. I keep it moist until I’ll put it in the ground. Nice little shrub.
Ten Berry Heavy Holly were delivered to my house about two weeks ago. The weather was too cold so the instructions said to keep them in the house. I did not see any instructions for indoor care, so I opened the plastic bags to let air in [which is not easy without very sharp pointed scissors]. I watered them immediately and then on the same schedule as my other house plants. A few days ago, I noticed some of thje leaves were browning on their edges and others were wilting. This was true of plants with both damp and dryer soil.
I concluded that the plants needed to get out into the sun. Fortunately, the weather here near Chicago had warmed. After planting them, most seemed to perk up a little, but not all. The males did better than the females. The couple nights ago, the temperatture dropped to 34 degrees farenheit. All the plants lost most of their leaves. Online sources say hollies are vulnerable to stress, especially abrupt changes in temperature. The sources also said the plants will recover. We shall see.
The point of this is that these plants should not be purchased for use in the Chicago area before May, and only when you are prepared to promptly plant them.
Because of these misfortunes, I have no idea whether these Berry Heavy plants are good or not. If they recover sometime this year, I will praise them. Otherwise, I never will know.
I bought two plants. They were both well packaged but one of them looked badly pruned for shipment. I intended to plant them in different areas but I just ended up planting them together to try and camouflage it. Other than that they are looking good. I’m in zone 8a, just on the edge, but they are in a well shaded spot so they should be okay
Received my 10 ice plants today and WOW!! So pleasantly surprised how healthy and green they look. And, a really good size in each pot. Packaging was great except the plastic around the pots was a real bugger to remove.
I pray I can keep them alive!!! So happy, as this is my very favorite plant.
(I had a boatload in my yard and they all died this winter. Fingers crossed!)
Plant arrived in big and healthy condition. Love it.
My Rose of Sharon seems happy. I’m looking forward to good growth this year.
