I received them quickly and was sent several emails to be prepared for their arrival. They provided clear instructions on how to plant them. They were all large plants with well established root systems that arrived in good health and a good price. They also sent me a free Orange Magnifica native honeysuckle.
In my opinion they are an excellent plant source and I would purchase from them again. | | Positive | Starwolf13

Detailed responses to my several preliminary inquiries about the Japanese Orange Tree and the related Flying Dragon Orange Tree, its potential for my area, its requirements, deer resistance, and so forth. (I am in zone 5b/6a in Cleveland Ohio, planting as a specimen container tree for the first year as we are moving, looking for as big a tree as possible). I placed my order for the Japanese Orange tree in April, requested that it be sent in mid-May. Received emails confirming the shipping time and arrival time. Today not one but TWO trees arrived, a second complimentary tree included!!! They had also taken time to pick out two differently shaped trees, and both nice big healthy trees (a little over 3 feet tall). Definitely on my "A" list of plant companies to order from, and I'll be telling all my plant loving friends about them! | | Positive | its_hattie

Plants arrived within a week, on the scheduled date, and in very good condition. They were well packaged and showed no sign of distress from shipment.

I received two healthy, leafy plants that are four times as big as the little starts I just bought from the nursery yesterday! Will definitely order from again

**Update on 6/28/09 I just had to add that one of my clematis struggled and didn\'t do well (the other is doing just fine) so I contacted gardensoyvey this morning (a Sunday!) and let them know. Wolfgang emailed me back within an hour to let me know a replacement would be sent out this week!!! I am so impressed, nice to meet people like these that you can trust. | | Positive | tomtkitty

They were a little smaller than the projected sale size, so the price was reduced (gardensoyvey's choice, before shipping). General care sheet included. The plants (yucca) are healthy and doing well. | | Positive | JuliaCh

The plants were packed with care and the roots were still very moist and happy. The plants were all a very good size with good branching and healthy root systems. The size you get for the price cannot be beat! It is nice to order from a company run by people who actually care about gardening rather than a big company who just wants to get the plants in and out and get your money. Wolfgang both emailed and called me regarding my order and it was very nice to make contact with an actual person who is out there with the plants. Fantastic - I cannot recommend them highly enough! | | Positive | plantgnome

I'm getting a serviceberry already 4 feet tall and branched out and they will ship it bareroot to save me excess shipping fees for the weight. You gotta use this company for your plants. What a pleasure.

Well, these guys are continually shocking me with their customer service. I got notified last week that my order will be shipping tomorrow. Usually you either get notified the same day it ships or you have to annoy them for a shipping date. Not this company. Very happy. will report upon receipt of my tree.

Received my Serviceberry Tree-what a beauty. already has buds on it was packaged very well I am thrilled with this company and will be purchasing more in a week or so. You must buy from this company, great service, communication and products!!!! AAAA++++++

I received two beautiful helleborus plants, a cinnamon fern, and a bonus of a complimentary tokyo fern. All in excellent health, well packaged and moist. Planted all today per their enclosed instruction. I try to take as much care in planting them as they did in growing and shipping them. Once again an excellent experience. I thank them again for the extra fern.
they are on the top of my list for fall.
On May 7th, 2009, plantgnome added the following:
Received my Third order today-fantastic-and another complimentary plant-this time a tiarella sugar and spice. Thrilled as usual. Another smooth transaction for nice healthy plants. I\'ll be busy tomorrow putting them in their new home.

These were advertised as 2-year old plants, which they obviously are. Each of them has at least two large fans, and a couple have as many as four fans--all with a well-developed healthy root system and at a lower price than that charged for a single fan by some of the other online plant farms. When I'm in the market for daylilies in the future, I'll go to Gardensoyvey.com first! | | Positive | schibler

First rate all the way...mailed on Tuesday, here on Thursday, wonderfully packed, beautiful healthy plants. These were definitely vibrant plants as less than a week after getting them in the ground, we have had 90+ temps here every day and they are all doing fine.
I'm a relatively new gardener and had never ordered plants online, but Wolfgang & Diane made it a fantastic first experience and have earned a definite repeat customer. THANK YOU! | | Positive | madok

I ordered the strawberry begonia and it is in very good shape. I liked the Gardensoyvey because they were very sincere and trustworthy. They even emailed me a picture of what it looks like when the plant grows. They openly states that they are happy to resend plants when they are damaged. I think that kind of assurance builds trust among us.

I have never tried to buy a plant on-line but I loved their website and decided to take a chance. From placing an order to receiving the plant, it could not have been any easier! In fact, getting the plant into the ground was easy with the great planting instructions. There were several e-mails sent to keep me informed of the status of my shipment. I placed the order on Monday morning and the plant arrived on Thursday in the early afternoon. As it is already hotter than blue blazes here in Austin, Texas, I was surprised at the great condition of the plant when it arrived. The detailed planting instructions and the condition of the plant today make me optimistic that I will be doing business with Gardensoyvey.com again! | | Positive | shenitasgarden

I shopped with them online, and was suprised at the service and communication --not to mention the--- the wonderful products. The plants I received were big, well rooted, undamaged, and fresh (as if I had just pulled them out of my own garden that very morning). I was completely happy with my plants. I have shopped with soooooooooooo many online and local nurseries, but Gardensoyvey are on the top of my list!!!! I have recommended them to my friends and family -- but, at first I just wanted to keep them as my secret nursery. This is only my second comment about a company...but when you're good...you're good. I hope nothing changes, because I plan to shop with them until I have no room left in my garden.

This was such a great experience from the amazing size and quality of the plants to the unbelievable customer service.
