- Support other wildlife species including birds, butterflies, moths, and bees

United StatesArrived safe & sound
The azalea arrived well packed & had no damage. It's not a common plant so I was thrilled to see you carried it. Cant wait to see it when it blooms!
Garden for Wildlife by National Wildlife Federation
It is so good to hear that your new shrub arrived in good condition. Thank you for helping wildlife by planting natives!
United StatesFleeting beauty
I believe this will be a wonderful plant, but it's off to a slightly shaky start. The plant was in great condition out of the box and was already in bloom. Unfortunately, the bloom was munched by local wildlife before I had time to put up fencing. It also has shallow roots, which has meant frequent watering since we're having a very dry spring. Can't wait to see it in bloom again next spring.
United Statesmixed success
I ordered the pinxterbloom azalea along with the azalea shrub twin pack. The two pinxterblooms each died. One never had any leaves. The other arrived with one flower but promptly died. The taller one, sweet azalea is doing fine. The Carolina Rose that came in that order is also doing well. Several of the flowers I ordered last fall never came back this year. I'm hesitant to buy anything else.

United StatesNewly Planted
The azalea arrived healthy, and is thriving so far. A last season freeze nipped some tender ends even though it was covered. I think it may be more tender than I expected (zone 5a). Can’t wait for it to mature and bloom!
