The scoop on 'Daylily Haven Iris Gardens'

This was my first order of beareded iris. After researching which varieties might stand up to Louisiana heat and humidity, I researched who had what I wanted and placed good-size orders with five different companies who were highly rated here. I have received all the orders now, and I can say without hesitation that Daylily Haven & Iris Gardens offers a great selection of bearded iris that will perform well in Southern climates. Also, Nina is very giving with her advice on which iris would be good selections for your area (if you call or write when it's not digging time!). I received healthy, clean, well labeled rhizomes... though the packaging could be improved. Other vendors sent their rhizomes in shredded newspaper, which allowed the rhizomes to stay dry. Nina's arrived wrapped in full sheets of paper and some of them were damp and beginning to mildew... apparently having absorbed humidity along the way to my house. Of course, in a less humid environment, this would not be an issue at all. One other area of improvement would be in keeping up with what's being sent versus what was ordered. Several of my rhizomes were accidentally included in someone else's order. Nina included a note stating this, but did not offer a refund for these or state when she would be sending these to me. Also, two rhizomes were left out and not mentioned in the communication at all. I will be writing to Nina to find out what to do about these. On the positive, Nina sent some lovely bonus selections, for which I am very grately. Overall, I found Nina's excellent selection and price to far outweigh any glitches I encountered. I am happy with my experience and will definitely order from Daylily Haven & Iris Garden in the future.

I am very pleased with my daylily order. The plants are large, clearly labeled, and look healthy. Communication was excellent, and Nina emailed when the plants were shipped.

Previously, I had ordered irises from her, which were also wonderful. After that positive experience, I knew her daylilies would also be great. I will definitely be ordering more from Daylily Haven Iris Gardens.

I bought from Nina last year.........and it was a GOOD experience. She communicated well with me (as busy as she was) via e-mail. I received labeled, freshly dug, good sized plants from her. She worked with me well. I would surely buy from her again.

I ordered some daylilies to be sent to Virginia for a specific date. They arrived on time, beautifully packed and many extras. Will def. order from Nina again.

I had a *great* experience with Daylily Haven earlier this year. I ordered some irises for my new place, and they arrived on time, packed well, along with several extras. I would gladly do business with them again (if only my gardens were bigger!!) Can't wait to see the irises bloom this spring!

I have ordered from Nina Morgan for over 5 years and have NEVER had anything but beautiful, large, clean plants. The one time that she was unable to provide one of the plants ,I received a refund AND two bonus plants FREE. I have never had any trouble contacting her either by phone or e-mail. She is knowledgeable about her products and fair in her treatment of customers.

A very pleasant transaction.

I found Ms. Morgan to be very pleasant to deal with-- responsive to my concerns/emails and a provider of very nice plants, particularly for the prices paid. The bonus was a very nice cultivar. The package contained a handwritten packing list, and thank you.

I wouldn't hesitate to order from her again.

I placed an order with Mrs. Morgan in June 2007, and sent her a check. I had made the check out to Daylily Haven (my error). Mrs. Morgan would not cash my check. I asked her to return it so that I could send her another one made out to her personally, as she requested.

I did not receive my original check back. I sent her three e-mails, and got no answer from her. I called her telephone number 5 or 6 times before I finally was able to get in touch with her. She said she had sent the original check back, but I have not received it, as of August 10.

I sent her a second check and she sent me most of the daylilies that I ordered. Upon opening the box and sorting out the daylilies, I discovered two were missing from my order: 1) Elegantissima and 2) Vintage Bordeaux. I sent her an e-mail advising her of this. She replied that her husband had put money in the box refunding me the cost of Elegantissima, and that she had sent Vintage Bordeaux in the box. I wrote her back, telling her that I had received no money in the box and no Vintage Bordeaux.

I have yet to hear from her. I am of the opinion that enough time has gone by that I should have received either the missing daylilies or a refund.

While her plants were nice, fresh and clean, I would never purchase anything else from her. I am minus two plants that I paid for, and at this writing, it appears that I have no prospect of replacement.

Just received an order from Nina and was VERY impressed. The plants were generous size, clean and very well packed and shipped. She also sent several bonus plants that looked just as nice as the plants I paid for and were beautiful varieties. I will definitely be a repeat customer! The prices are also really great!!!

Contacted seller regarding disappointing order and received offensive e-mail. Would not recommend.

I recieved my order today and had a wonderful experience with Nina. She sent VERY nice plants and even sent a bonus that wasn't expected. Will DEFINITELY do business with her again!

I received nice plants with extra fans, generous bonus plants and they were perfectly clean and well packed. And the prices were great. I'll order again and can strongly recommend.
