Positive | MaryEv (16 reviews) | On Sep 2, 2019, MaryEv Cincinnati, OH (Zone 6a) wrote: I have ordered from NSE several times and I am so thrilled with the quality of the plants. Enid is such a professional and the one time an order got mixed up, it was rectified, immediately. The plants are beautiful, healthy and full, customer service couldn't be better and order turn-around and shipping is very quick, plus plants are packed very securely, even when they're quite large! |

Both plants were repotted a month ago and growing well. I had an issue with USPS and Enid helped in every way so that I was refunded properly. A++ experience in every way |

About a year ago I ordered some very unsual anthuriums which are doing so well now that I decided to order some philodendrons. This place is a great source for interesting species aroids. |

Positive | amarantha00 (14 reviews) | On Oct 1, 2006, amarantha00 San Bernardino, CA (Zone 8b) wrote: If it were possible, I'd give this company a positive triple plus! I ordered a white tacca which came with a HUGE bloom and another strong bud. This plant was packaged with extreme care and came to So California still moist. I am absolutely amazed at the size of this plant and the gorgeous bloom. I'm checking this site first from now on for exotics. Their prices were much cheaper than competitors too, and for plants about triple the average size. After the crazy Bat Lily thread, I expect this fine company will be increasing their business by leaps and bounds. |

On September 9th, 2005, henryr10 added the following: ========================================= I have ordered twice more and am still VERY impressed w/ the Service, Packing and especially the Plants. I can't rate a company higher. Want Service? I was informed by the owner that a plant I wanted was finally available. My order was placed and confirmed on 8/23 just 2 days before they were hit in FL by Hurricane Katrina. I know that area and that they would have taken damage. I expected a long, long delay and possibly no plants at all. On Sept 1 my plants arrived in perfect condition. I learned later, thru a friend, they had been working w/o power to get things put right and the orders out. THAT's Service! |

Positive | TrixieM (3 reviews) | On Jul 18, 2005, TrixieM Mc Call Creek, MS wrote: I ordered a very special ginger from this company last fall. At the time I ordered, this company, which is located on the east coast of Florida, had just had one hurricane and was about to have another. They filled my order very promptly, in spite of their weather problems. (My order was a ginger so special I could not find one like it anywhere else.) The ginger was in a dormant state at the time of shipment, as should have been. |

We were looking for unusual aroids and I was very pleased to find this nursery. The plants were expensive, but totally worth it. They were large, healthy and well packed. I am proud to put these plants on public display *straight from the box*!!!!! We are happy campers! |
Positive | AlabamaGardener (3 reviews) | On Feb 3, 2005, AlabamaGardener Vincent, AL wrote: It's been almost 12 hours since I received my first order from NSExotics and I'm still grinning from ear-to-ear. I was not expecting such big, beautiful alocasias - the largest of which approached 2-ft. in height. Each pot contained at least two healthy plants and, as others have mentioned, was meticulously packaged, arrived quickly, and in excellent condition. |

Incredible job of packaging, so well wrapped/packaged if I hadn’t unpackaged them myself I never would have believed these plants had been shipped from several states away! Prices for unusual/hard to find plants exceptionally reasonable, also do NOT gouge for shipping! Great Plants, great Company! I can’t wait to order from them AGAIN! Thanks ENID and Natural Selections Exotics!!! |

Well it's March 2004 and it has come back from the winter strong, they had the best price of anyplace I checked, and I am very happy with my AeAe from Natural Selections. I plan to order from them again this year. |
Positive | ScottDurand (3 reviews) | On Mar 16, 2004, ScottDurand Miami, FL wrote: I order from Natural Selections often, over the last 2 years I have ordered an assortment of different types of tropicals from them. The plants are always really nice sized and healthy, besides being very well packaged. The service is always friendly and prompt. One nice thing about this company is the plants are always labeled correctly and they are always what I am supposed to be getting which is very nice. I highly recommend Natural Selections Exotics. |

I also had no problems getting a replacement when plant was damaged in shipping - a pleasure to deal with. I find their selection of gingers and elephant ears to be outstanding, and they are one of the few places that carries the rare Ae Ae banana. A big green thumbs up! |

I've bought several plants from her via eBay and have always been pleased with the size and health of the plants. You can also order from her website that has a somewhat small, but very interesting assortment of plants and seeds. Fast shipping and great packing top off the deal!! Definitely recommended for those tropical lovers looking for something interesting and new!! On August 22nd, 2007, Carter added the following: Just to add... since my original rating, I've ordered more plants several times, both via eBay and through their website. I've always quickly received very nice sized plants. Plus, she's always been very friendly and good with communication. I will continue to purchase from Enid and Natural Selections Exotics! |

The plants I got were good size and healthy. I was impressed because I've gotten plants from others that were puny and weak. The prices aren't bad either. They send instructions and have growing tips on the site. |
