Flower Plants

All plants arrived in EXCELLENT condition

From anonymous | June 02, 2016


Songbird Aquilegia

I order a lot of plants online and have had some bad experiences with plants arriving in bad condition and not intact. GrowJoy uses a packaging method I've not seen from any other shipper. It holds the plants perfectly in place so my plants arrived without a single bit of dirt out of place! Well done GrowJoy!
