Overall impressed by the plants but shipping was delayed
I bought two collections that shipped separately. One arrived when it was supposed to, and I was so impressed. The plants were all at least 6" tall and looked very healthy. The other set got delayed by Fedex for about two days and were not as healthy when they arrived. I planted them any way and am hopeful they will recover from their journey. Cross your fingers for some merry monarchs at my house next year!

Very Happy
Easy, Efficient, Exceeding Expectations!

Thank you
Plants arrived on time and in excellent shape. I planted according to directions and so far, so good.

Great Pack of Native Plants
I just planted these a few months ago and can’t wait to see how they grow next year! Great native plant pack!

Uneven quality, but great customer service
Two of the plants arrived in bad shape, so I contacted customer service. They were very responsive, saying the plants would be replaced. To my amazement, a shipment arrived with not only the two I’d requested, but an entire new set of plants! All of these plants were larger with more roots. It made me wonder if these were exceptional, or if the first set was subpar. In any case, I’m happy with the end result
