You guessed it: So far, we have not yet seen any of the lovely WHITE flowers; today the first bulb bloomed and is a bright ORANGEY-RED color. It is not unattractive, but we specifically chose the APPLE BLOSSOM and are disappointed. (We are, however, impressed with the size and health of the plant & the flowers are enormous!) |

It wasn't that big and had some awful looking round bug that looked like white corduroy on the main trunk. Plus, I didn't like the extra shipping charge, which also could have been more obvious during the checkout process. Since the plant was fairly healthy, I'll give them a neutral. |

The plants themselves were in excellent condition and of good size. However, there was nothing to hold the soil in the pots and a good deal of it was either loose at the bottom of the carton or simply gone. I have ordered from many online nurseries and there are many methods for holding the soil in the pots, so I was surprised that a company of Smith & Hawken's reputation did not use any of them. |

They seemed undersized, especially considering how much I paid. The convallaria majalis "Rosea" I ordered was impossible to find anywhere else, so I suppose it was worth it. Many of my friends have had more positive experiences with the company, however, so I will consider ordering from them again. |

Christmastime is always going to bring delays and problems, no matter the merchant--My transactions throughout the "normal" part of the year have been positive, on the whole. |

It is my thoughts that you still won't to stay away from the Web Site to purchase an item. In the last few month it has gotten worse not better. With christmas coming it will be evin worse. Last years orders placed on the website never downloaded to us. People never got orders and was a huge mess. |

It is my thoughts that you may won't to stay away from the Web Site to purchase an item. It's great to look up plants or see the furniture, but the problems you may experience on purchasing is not worth the hassle. Get your order over the phone! On June 12th, 2003, simba added the following: The Smith and Hawken call center is now also taking calls for Martha Stewart. If we can't get it right with Smith and Hawken why would we add this extra burden. Do not place an order on the web it is a mess. |
