Comments regarding Mendocino Maples Nursery

What a joy to stroll Mendocino Maples and have so many wonderful choices. Robert was extremely knowledgeable in guiding me to a very specific Japanese Maple for a major focal point in my yard, and knew the growing habit, color of leaves (both Spring and Fall) and character and tendencies of each and every maple we passed by. The selection, quality and care given to each plant make this the only Maple Nursery you will ever need to visit!

Fantastic experience every time I go and I look forward to my visits there. Robert keeps a fantasy garden that is delightful to be in - simply splendid! That and the wonderful plants that are obviously well-cared for that one can bring back to one's own garden - an outstanding selection! All purchases from Mendocino Maples are doing very well - not one exception. Robert himself really loves his maples and takes time with each customer informing them about the plants, and is very attentive - I always appreciate his take on my questions and input toward my own gardening goals. I'm hooked - and recommend highly!

Excellent service and response to questions. Maple arrived in perfect condition (packed with care) by Priority Mail. It is a healthy plant and good size. Overall, an excellent experience; would recommend without reservation.

The service I recieved from Mendocino Maples was outstanding. The Acer Conspicuum 'Pheonix' I ordered arrived in excellent condition. The owner Robert kept in touch with emails and personally made sure I knew the status of my order and when it would arrive. This is the place to go for maples, highly recommended.

The acer japonicum vitifolium I ordered arrived promptly and in excellent condition.

Prompt shipment. Great e-mail communication regarding trees in stock. If out of stock, they suggested alternates. Really good to deal with!

Robert is a great person to do business with, not only is his selection great and the trees arrive well packed, but he answers every question quickly and precisely. i will definitely do business with mendocino maples nursery in the future!

I recently received 4 maples from Mendocino. All arrived in great shape. It would be tough to find fault in any aspect of my experience with this company. Plants looked good (fair size, good roots, not a stem or leaf broken). Prices were very good in my opinion for what you get (based on other purchases online and in person). Shipping was done when stated and packaging was good. Owner personally e-mailed me several times to update me on status of order and followed up after delivery.
I also want to note that Mendocino Maples carries more than just palmatum, and japonicum maple species. Their selection really is excellent.
I would have to give them a hearty endorsement for a job well done in every aspect!

I contacted Robert Jamgochian at mendocino maples concerning several maples that I was interested in from his website. He answered all of my questions concerning the location of graft points for several of the trees and also let me know which trees were grown from cuttings.

I had some concerns about shipping in the heat of the summer so I was told that the trees that I ordered could be held until the weather cooled off. But since I was anxious to get these hard to find trees I asked for them to be shipped immediately. The trees arrived two days after they were shipped. The shipping method was ingenious, using map tubes which are all reinforced. The shipping was also very inexpensive. All of the trees are doing great and were of very quality and very inexpensive (50% less) compared to other companies offering the same trees.

I have ordered from at least 10 to 15 different mail order nurseries and Mendocino Maples is by far the best.

Plants requested were delivered on time and as promised. Rootstocks were vigorous and tree stems strong. Packaging of plants was such that specimens were well-supported and protected from shipping damage. I have purchased sight-unseen plants from other mail-order suppliers and from eBay in the past but Mendocino Maples plants were of the best quality that I have ever purchased. If you want good Japanese maples, buy from this nursery.
