Positive | jfw3 (2 reviews) | On Sep 23, 2011, jfw3 Jacksonville, FL wrote: I've ordered plants via mail order for years now. Ordering from Brite Leaf has been one of my best experiences. I e-mailed Anna with questions about availability and growing a Buddha's Hand, Kaffir Lime and Australian Finger Lime Trees. She promptly responded and followed up immediately in an e-mail with questions to insure that my order was correct. I am amazed, AMAZED, at the great shape and SIZE the trees were when they arrived. They were in the best shape of any plants that I've received via mail order. And, her prices for the plants and shipping are great. $20 for a tree this size? No way elsewhere. One place was going to charge me $60 for the kaffir lime. |

Positive | thuggett (8 reviews) | On May 28, 2010, thuggett Orlando, FL wrote: The first plant I've ordered from Brite Leaf arrived today (one day after shipping!), and I already can't wait to place another order soon. We've had many plants delivered though the USPS, UPS, and FedEx; none were ever packed so well, none were healthier. The folks at Brite Leaf set the standard for care in raising and shipping their stock. |

They arrived very well-packaged and in great condition--disease-free, no leaf drop, and soil still moist. |

The tree is gorgeous! Anna at Brite Leaf is quick to respond to e-mails and very helpful. Thanks Brite Leaf! I'll be back! |
Positive | dtinn (9 reviews) | On Apr 13, 2006, dtinn Falmouth, KY wrote: I ordered a Meyer lemon and a Moro blood orange. Both arrived today in excellent condition. The soil in the pots was moist, the trees were well packed and had little or no damage from shipment. The trees were larger than I expected. I was also pleased that the owner kept in touch with me regarding the weather conditions in my area, and didn't ship the trees until the weather here was appropriate. More nurseries should have this level of service. I was reluctant to try my hand at growing citrus trees again. I have ordered citrus trees in the past, but they always arrived tiny and sickly, but not these trees. They have my business for any citrus I order in the future. |

The Trees were Honestly in the best shape of ANY I've recieved in over 30 yrs of ordering by mail. From now on, they're my 1st stop for ANYTHING they sell! |

A few years back I was pretty hesitant to order a citrus tree becasue of living in Michigan, but Anna helped me a ton; any time a wuestion was asked I got a straight Answer and a very quck response. The Meyers Lemon tree that I recieved was in excelent condition, and it was sold to me for an awesome price. It was not only lush and green but it also had flowers and fruit on it. |
Positive | Toni05 (61 reviews) | On May 12, 2005, Toni05 Brookfield, IL wrote: I've been shopping at Briteleaf 3 years now..All trees that were shipped were in perfect condition, some had flowers and fruit. I've approximately 12 trees from Briteleaf..Trees arrive larger than those at other nurseries, for 1/3rd the price. Packaging is articulately done..Anna even screws box to pot so plant won't tumble during shipping. On May 21st, 2006, Toni05 added the following: I ordered 5 citrus from Briteleaf and again was as happy as a lark. Their trees were about 4' tall, one has a fruit, another has flowers. Foliage is shiny, healthy and insect free. I would never think of ordering from overpriced nurseries that send plants even 1' tall for 3 times their price..Toni |
Positive | PGG (1 review) | On Feb 10, 2005, PGG Bartlett, IL wrote: I bought a few citrus trees from Brite Leaf in spring 2004. I received the trees in great condition, very healthy and large. Several e-mails were sent between us before the sale and they were extremely helpful and curtious. Growing these trees in the northern part of the country is very rewarding and made much easier especially when it started off with great plant material. I will be purchasing a few more trees in spring 2005. |

I've been dealing with Brite-Leaf for several years and have always recieved awesome plants and outstanding customer service from them. They are helpful with advise and have alway done what they said that they'd do....or more. It's getting late in the season for more orders but I'll be back in the spring of '05 for more plants. I'd give Brite-Leaf the highest rating that's possible. Joe in N/E Colorado |

Anna was very responsive, answered all my e-mails promptly and even sent a picture of the Key lime I was about to buy. It was still chilly in my area when the trees were scheduled to ship, so Anna worked with me on the ship date to make sure it would not get too cold for them in transit. When the trees arrived, they were better than what I had hoped for: carefully packed in thin, long boxes with a screw through the outside of the box into the side of the pot so the tree would not shake back and forth in the box while traveling. Not a leaf was lost. The key lime had flower buds and small fruit already set. At $14+S&H these plants are a steal. I highly recommend them. |

I've placed another order, since I cannot get any trees half as nice for 3 times the price here. I feel like I got a great deal, obviously! |
Positive | legatoeff (1 review) | On Apr 14, 2004, legatoeff wrote: I ordered two trees from Briteleaf. A Meyers Lemon and Valencia Orange. I have nothing but praise for the trees themselves and for the excellant customer service I recieved. This nursery sells to commercial and home growers alike, so I believe that is why they have such a high quality tree. I will definetly buy from them again and their prices are excellant! |

I have yet to receive them (I only placed the order 3-4 days ago over the weekend), but know 2 different people who have and absolutely loved them. I saw them myself and they were big and healthy and strong, with nice healthy leaves and strong trunks. I have corresponded by email with them and they are so attentive and nice about all my questions and always get right back to me. Their prices are very very affordable and I cannot wait to receive my order. They are by far the best company I have ever dealt with for mail order citrus. |

The trees are big and healthy and arrived in beautiful condition, thanks to Anna's careful and ingenious packaging. The dollop of whipped cream on this lemon meringue pie, so to speak, is the price -- 1/3 the cost of the citrus tree bought last Spring from a "brand name" catalog! Although one can only order via telephone and email while the website is under construction, the company is very responsive and my order was shipped and delivered within a few days. I highly recommend Brite Leaf and plan to place all future citrus orders with this company exclusively. |

The price was reasonable and the same as or lower than prices from sites I had visited. I will definitely do business with them again and recommend them highly. |
