Blue Star Creeper arrived quickly and looked great. Very pretty plant. I look forward to seeing the area I planted it in after it's spread.

Horrible! Never ordering from this website again!

It was bad enough that the blue star creeper I ordered came several days after the expected delivery date. But to add insult to injury, the plant was mailed loose in an oversized box with no packing material. I opened the box to discover a half inch of dirt on the bottom of the box, an empty planter in one corner, and my plant stuffed in the opposite corner of the box, roots exposed and in several pieces. I tried to save it, but it died a few days later. I have ordered from many different garden websites in the past and I have never had any plant I ordered packed so carelessly. This plant wasn't cheap nor was the shipping, so to say I was disappointed was an understatement. I should have done my research, since this company has many one-star reviews on various consumer websites. Well, now that I know better, I'm never ordering a single thing from this website ever again.

We apologize for this experience. We prioritize our customers and would love to hear more from you. We try our best to provide excellent plants, but some factors, like shipping and handling, are outside our control. That’s why we have a 60-day guarantee on all of our orders.
