We had two very large orders of Carolina Jessamine, well over $1500. They arrived in great shape, on time, were easy to track and we had prompt email contact with the company. They are classy, indeed. Easy to work with, and prompt. No negatives at all, highly recommend.

i ordered some 'Anne Marie' English Ivy and they arrived .in excellent condition within a few days. This was my first order but it will not be my last. This company has demonstrated that they are serious about plants and know how to please the customer. They live up to their name. Keep up the good work!!!

This is a really classy company to deal with. They are efficient, honorable and the plants are superb. They are beautifully packed - best I have ever seen - and you really feel you are dealing with plant people who care. I have purchased from them since March 2007 and have never had a failure.

The daylilies arrived promptly within a week. They had a healthy root system. I'm hoping that the root systems will be strong enough to adjust to my planting them in the middle of this hot summer.

Plump, healthy bare root pachysandra arrived from this excellent supplier, at the same time Loriope arrived from much more well known catalog supplier. The Loriope all looked brown, dry and sure enough, even with a thorough soaking, amazingly attendant planting, they barely grew in the 2 months and most of them did not make it. This large supplier graciously replaced them, but not the time it took to get them planted...of course. My pachysandra from Classy are doing amazing! They are outperforming the existing plantings and I am anxious to order more from this excellent grower. We are up in New Jersey and they are in Georgia, but this supplier seems very devoted and I heartilly recommend them to anyone!

I wanted to express how impressed I was with the size and the great condition of the plants I received from classy ground covers. The flat was healthy, well watered and larger than any 3 in pot I can find locally. Thank you.

I definitely don't have a green thumb. I tried ordering ground cover and other plants from three other sources prior to finding Classy Groundcovers - and in all three cases, the plants were dead within a month.

But the plants I bought from Classy Groundcovers came with well established roots. The plants were in great shape and were clearly packaged with great care. I'm glad to say that the ground cover I bought in March is still going strong!

And the web site has a great search engine. You can enter your zone, soil condition, lighting, and many other specifications and find plants that are precisely what you need.

The customer service is awesome. They probably aren't the cheapest source - but it's worth it to pay a little extra and know that the plants are going to survive! I love this company,

A wonderful experience. The flowers arrived when promised, where in great condition, and they threw a few extra flowers in for free. I have already recommended them to a friend, who plans to use them in the Spring.

My first time ordering plants. Great experience. I ordered a small batch of liriope Monroe whites. Fantastic packaging, quick fulfillment and great communication. I will order again. I have a large area I plan to cover and I look forward to getting more from this supplier..

I ordered 25 3/12 inch pots of liriope variegata. I am sorry to say that most of the plants vere root bound, some so badly, iI had to use a razor blade to cut the roots. Also, a lot of old growth, yellow and brown. From the ratings I expected a better product. I am happy to say, however, that the grasses are doing well, and should be o.k. So I remain neutral about more ordering from this company.
Company representative comment on May 27, 2009:
On May 27, 2009 10:56 PM, Classy Groundcovers responded with:

Hi Barbara, I'm sorry that you were unhappy that the plants you received were root bound. They were from the end of a crop and by that point had foliage equivalent to a gallon. Most people would appreciate getting a plant with foliage and root structure that was substantially more mature than what they paid for.

As indicated on our unpacking instructions, any yellow or brown leaves should be removed at unpacking - the plants will quickly bounce back from the trauma of shipping and you will have full size plants much sooner than you would normally.

I finally found creeping veronica online at classygroundcovers.com.
My flat of lush healthy plants arrived within a few days of ordering and they made sure that the shipment arrived before the weekend.
This company delivered fine big plants and I will continue to order from them.

I was impressed with this company in every possible way. Immediately upon placing my order I received great communication - order confirmation, date order would be filled, expected delivery date, tracking information - all of which were accurate. I ordered on a Sunday, the plants were packed and shipped on Tuesday, and by Thursday I received them. Emails to the company were promptly answered. The plants themselves exceeded all of my expectations. I have mail ordered plants before, but never in this quantity (350 2" pots and 50 bare root) or from this company. It was always my experience that at least some of the plants were not great. However, every single plant from Classy Groundcovers was perfect. The roots were so advanced and the plants so healthy I couldn't believe it. Even the bare root plants were big - more like a small potted plant but without the dirt or pot. Bare roots I've ordered in the past were often so small I had trouble determing which end was plant and which was root. Not so with these. For the past 5 years I have been gradually planting liriope spicata on a large hill in our yard. After purchasing from many different sources (none of which were mail order) I can honestly say that this batch was the best value and the nicest plants. Wish I had gone this route from the start! This company and it's plants are definitely a class act! I definitely recommend Classy Groundcovers!

I received my first order --- a flat of Scabiosa plants and they arrived in perfect condition. The 24 were all healthy and shipped carefully. Due to circumstances, I was only able to plant 3 before having to wait an additional 8 days to plant the remainder. BUT the rest grew just as well and were no worse for sitting in the shipping pots!! I finally got them in the ground yesterday. SUPER company!! Thanks again!

My 72 phlox and verbena plants arrived super fast and the plants are in pristine condition! The packaging was excellent, and all the plants are moist..... much better than my local nurseries. Top quality service, fantastic prices and great quality plants; plus a cool gift was an extra nice surprise. Highly recommended. It's so nice to find a company that really knows what good customer service is. You can't beat these prices.

The plants arrive perfectly packed and in perfect condition. Very little damage in transit and I was able to transplant them right away. I will certainly order some more product from them as I have a long list of areas I am looking to fill in my garden.

I will order again from Classy Groundcovers without a moment's hesitation. Their product is awesome but their customer service is out of this world.

Recently, I ordered Mazus reptans from Classy Groundcovers. I am very pleased with the product and the service.

The plants are strong and healthy. They arrived well-packed. The shipping information and guidelines provided by the company's website were clear and accurate. The plants arrived exactly when they were predicted to arrive. I received e-mails confirming my order and shipment.

Overall -- a very positive experience. I highly recommend this company.

A couple of days after ordering I realized I had forgotten to use the discount code that was good for Sept. I sent an e-mail to the company, and Customer Service replied--on a weekend!--that they would credit me the discount. The bare-root plants arrived a few days later and were quite healthy with nice root systems. I planted them on the day of arrival using a bulb auger and have high hopes that they'll establish quickly.

First, I unexpectedly received a small package containing a Classy Groundcovers spade and baseball cap. Three days later, I received a box full of beautiful, healthy St. John's Wort. This morning, my husband and I planted them all, and now my neighbors are ALL JEALOUS! Could life get any better than this?

This was my first order with Classy Groundcovers. I found them while surfing the web for daylilies, and checked their reviews here before I ordered. I'm very pleased with the 50 bareroot daylilies that arrived today. They were packed well and for the price are larger than I thought they'd be (some have double fans). All look like they just came out of the ground- the packing moss was still damp, the fans nice and green. I'll order from this company again.

I ordered two ground covers. I live in MA. I ordered on-line and later changed the shipping date. This company was very prompt with their responses to me, amenable to changing the ship date, and accurate as to the date of the arrival of my plants. All plants were/are healthy.

The selection is large. Prices are very good. The service is excellent. The plants arrived on time and in excellent health. Probably the best service I have experienced on the internet. Oh yeah, the useful gifts were a totally unexpected bonus.

Since my first order, I have ordered second & third time & will be placing a fourth order as soon as I can get the most current plants in the ground.

New customer here, so I kept it simple: some ferns, phlox, and mazus. The plants came in excellent condition, they were shipped when I requested, and I'm about to go out and tuck them in.
