Comment: I want to express my thanks to you for the excellent care you put into shipping my plants.

I was also surprised at the growth of the plants something I have never seen before in my orders. Again, thank for a job well done.

Comment: Highly recommend this company. I ordered many tomato plants from Growjoy! All arrived in excellent condition and each plant was in a separate sturdy plastic container.

Comment: Came a little bent and the potting medium was bone dry. Within 2 hours of planting and giving it a good soaking in the container it was doing fantastic. Has grown great and now, in less than a month, it's producing its first tomatoes.

Comment: This was my first time ordering from this company. Ordering was very simple. Customer service was wonderful. I have not been able to plant because of the cold weather here in northeast Ohio. Normal planting time is usually memorial day weekend in my area. However GrowJoy's shipping schedule for this area is the end of April. Plants arrived in good shape. I just hope they last another three weeks before I can plant outside. I wish they would ship later in my area and I should’ve paid attention to... More details
