Looking good

Plants arrived healthy and well-packed. Now it is snowing here. I hope they are hardy.

Excellent in every respect

I can't review each individually (too many). All plants in this order (placed last winter) arrived in great condition and packaged extremely well. We have had a lousy spring - looking out at snow from another storm. Won't pot them all until we get a little warmer. Excellent transaction start to finish!

1 out of 2 were great

Really: 3.5. I ordered 2 and 1 arrived with flowers and the other didn’t. The one with flowers continues to bloom but the other still doesn’t even have any buds. Upon inspection the foliage looks healthy but it looks like the main stem may have been slightly damaged? Not too hopeful, but it might work itself out?

GrowJoy: Katie, we'll be happy to send you another. Give us a call if you have not already done so.
