"CORN/CANTALOUPE"

Comment: Everything arrived packaged with care and in a timely manner. My/your corn took root very quickly and has reached 5 feet in just a few weeks. The cantaloupe however, showed slow growth, but growth. Then we got our first heavy rain since I planted and BOOM, it's been growing very well. I'm a regular customer now.

Comment: When the cantaloupe arrived, one of the plants was in excellent condition and one was in poor. The plant that arrived in excellent condition is doing great! The other died within a few days (planted in the same garden within 3 feet of each other). I contacted Customer Care and Tina Miller was wonderful in securing a credit on my account. She was helpful, followed up with me, and was just wonderful. The plant I purchased to replace the cantaloupe is doing great!
