Comments regarding Garden Crossings LLC

This is my first experience with Garden Crossing and I felt confident when I placed my order due to the number of positive comments here. I was not disappointed.

I ordered a total of 13 plants (Heucheras, Coppertina, Sambucus, Amsonia, Columbine, Delphinium and Armeria). They all arrived very large and healthy looking. They were packaged very well and were not the least bit dried out upon arrival. I unpacked them, watered them and this morning I placed them in the flowerbeds. They look right at home with the other plantings.

I'll not hesitate to order from them again.

I ordered two heucheras which arrived very large and healthy. The plants have been in the ground for a week now and are already sporting substantial new growth. I am very pleased with this company.

I liked this company before I ever received my first order from them, because they allowed me to add items to a completed on-line order about one week later so I could combine shipping. I also e-mailed them a question about clematis, and they sent me a very helpful, detailed response.

They notified me yesterday that my order had shipped, and I received it today! (I'm live in Ohio and they're in Michigan, but I still think that's fast.) The plants are large, and in beautiful shape. The soil was still intact and moist. These plants don't even look like they have been shipped.

I will definitely order from Garden Crossings again. Their service and product are A+++

Beautiful Clematis beautifully packaged. A nice email to explain a couple concerns helped put my mind at ease. Great business & customer relation. Great job!

I received my order today. The box had clearly been tossed about, but the plants were so well packaged that the shipping did them no harm. They were moist and padded and just fine.

I am very impressed with the size of the plants. They are the largest I've received by mail order and all look very healthy and sturdy.

Although shipping is not inexpensive, but when is it, I must say the plants themselves were fairly priced, especially considering the size, health and extremely fine packaging.

Excellent mail order nursery.

Received my shipment today and I am very pleased with the size and health of the plants. Packaging protected them even though FedEx did their best to obviously sqeeze a big box through a little chute :) I am a first time customer and will become a life time customer. The entire experience from ordering online to delivery was exceptional. You can not go wrong with this company.

I received my order today. The plants are large and healthy.

The box was a little banged up on arrival--NOT Garden Crossing's fault. The plants inside were NOT banged up--and that's half the point of a good box: it can take a beating without passing that beating on to the contents.

A couple of the plants had a bit of freeze damage on some outer leaves, and that also is NOT Garden Crossing's fault, considering the Rocky Mountains and Wyoming are between their location and mine. I also asked for my plants earlier than is considered safe. It's still winter in the Rockies, so I'm not surprised things probably got a bit cold in the FedEx truck.

I am VERY IMPRESSED and PLEASED with the Clematis I received from Gardencrossings, They were packaged and labeled just beautifully!!..Awesome Rooted 1/2 gallon Clematis!!...Chad over at Gardencrossings is the best and so informative and helpful...I will continue to order more and more from him...His prices are great and shipping is very cheap compared to many places I have ordered from..Thanks Chad!!...Jeanne

I can't begin to describe how pleased I was with the plants I received last year! (And I ordered quite a few.) I had also ordered from other online nurseries but none could compare with the size,quality,health, and packaging of Garden Crossings plants! It's like steak vs hamburger. I already placed my first order with them this year and I'm not even going to shop elsewhere. Oh, and the service? First rate! I am now a loyal customer, and you will be too.

Now that I'm starting to think about spring planting, I'm going back to the companies that became my favorites last year, and Garden Crossings is without a doubt number one on that list. I've given up on ordering from other sites that send the most pathetic twigs I've ever seen, over and over. Garden Crossings is the polar opposite experience - delightfully healthy plants, a great selection, reasonable prices....honestly, these are the most wonderful mail-order plants i've ever seen! Actually, they put most regular nurseries to shame as well. I am definitely a customer for life!

I ordered one hosta from this company...and now I wish I'd ordered more! They shipped very quickly and left it in it's 4" pot. The Fall sale prices are great! I will definitely be ordering from them next year.

Of all of the mail order companies I have used to buy live plants, Garden Crossings sent the healthiest looking plants upon arrival. The plants were very well packed and were still moist. They will be my first choice in all future transactions.

Without a doubt, the absolutely best place for ordering plants!

Great Plants, very healthy looking, with strong growth. Packaged well, and considerably less expensive than other companies. I will do repeat business with this company.

Received my first order. Great packing, healthy plant, prompt service. Wish most of the plants they have were not sold out all ready at this time of the year.

My first order from Garden Crossings arrived, and, wow! The scales have been lifted! I've ordered from many other mail order garden sites, but the quality of the plants (perovskias and phlox), the condition in which they arrived, the packing, and even the communication (a tracking number for online inquiries is provided) were far above anything I've seen before, even from other supposedly high-end companies. Even though they aren't the cheapest (but neither are they markedly expensive) they give excellent value for the money. Will I buy from them in the future? Definitely.

My first order from Garden Crossings arrived today in wonderful condition. The plants, all in 2-quart containers, were perfectly packed so as to minimize loss of soil moisture and leaves. The plants are healthy, large, and were shipped to coincide with my zone's fall planting schedule. Garden Crossings' selection of hard-to-find perennials is huge, and I will definitely order from them again.

A real shocker - I am very high on these guys. They are now on my top-notch list. I found them last year while searching for a source for a clematis I was lusting after - 'Barbara'. I have now ordered four times and have been extremely pleased. The plants are large, healthy and reasonably priced. The shipping is not bad - especially the more you order. The customer service is as good as any I've experienced. They will answer any questions and will do whatever is necessary to make you happy. I had a problem with my last order - through no fault of theirs - and they made me happy. The packing is also one of the best I have seen. You simply cannot go wrong with these guys. Should be on your 'Gold' list.

I will definitely order from them again.
The plants are bigger than I expected and very healthy looking. And they arrived SO fast!
And the prices are reasonable.
Definitely a good place to buy plants from!

My plants were better than I expected, and the customer service is excellent!

I had used a credit card that we found out had some unauthorized charges on it, so we cancelled it. I forgot about my order from Garden Crossings. They called me, and then I felt bad that I had forgot about using that card for this order. Of course, payment was denied because I had cancelled the card.

They were SOOO good to work with, and very understanding. Even through all this, I received very healthy plants in less than a week.

I am extremely pleased with Garden Crossings. I purchased several perennials-All are thriving wonderfully. My new favorite site to purchase perennials.

I just received 5 plants that I ordered from Garden Crossing and they looked great and were packaged really well. I would definately order from them again.

This was an excellent mail order experience! My order arrived promptly, and i received an advance e-mail, letting me know when they were shipped. They arrived healthy and were larger than I expected. I was most impressed with the expert packing. I will definitely order from this company again.

I ordered a red clematis and pretty flower. The plants came in about a week and was very big and very healthy. I will not hesitate to use this company again, and highly recommend.

I placed an order 5/16/05, and received my order two days later!..The plants are big and healthy, I will positively order from again!

I happened to find this place by searching for the new color cone flowers... all the other places were selling them in small 3inch pot and for big dollars too..... so I found this company and they were selling the same plants in 2qt pots for half the price of the other guys... and boy when they arrive they big very big, these puppies will flower the first year.... another great company to buy from....

I received my orders {2 of them, 10 large 2quart size plants } Thay are the biggest, healthiest, and all around best plants I have ever received through mail order...They did a outstanding job in the packaging & shipping, they all arrived in perfect shape...I will be a returning customer, and I will recommened Gardencrossings to all my friends as a excellent place to mail order large, healthy, high quality plants...Awesome, Shawn M. Kinsey

I am a first-time customer of this company and I am very pleased. I received one of the two clematis that I ordered and it was healthy and packaged securely. They had to back-order the other clematis, but have kept me informed by e-mail. I would recommend this company!

I've ordered perennials multiple times from many of the best, highest-rated nursuries in this database. I can say without hesitation that the plants I've received from this company are absolutely the biggest, healthiest plants that have come through the mail. Actually they've been better-looking than most of the local offerings I've purchased. The only place that rivals this one in these aspects is Paradise Garden and I believe they are one of Paradise Gardens suppliers so that explains that.

They have an interesting selection of plants. Their prices are really good, especially when you consider how great their plants look. I've ordered a fairly large amount of perennials from them and been happy with every plant.

Thier prices are great considering the quality of the product you receive. The plants are packed particularly well too.

I highly recommond this company.

Not a single thing to complain about with this company -- they do it all! Website is great and easy to use, plants are large and healthy, packaging is top notch (unbelievable safe packing), and delivery was on time and included an email shipment notice.

My only regret....that I didn't order more. I'll be back many times in the future. I hope they expand their offerings to more varieties.

Give them a try, you won't regret it.

I order verbascum, geranium, and clematis. All were excellent and good quality. The verbascum and geranium were good sized; the clematis moderate sized. I will order again from this company.

I ordered 4 plants online, splurging on 2-quart pots. They were shipped timely, very well packaged, and the plants are healthy and HUGE! The foxglove is a foot tall or better. They were a little bit banged up in shipping, but you can't fault the seller for that. I'm very happy with this company.

Received my order for Clematis. The plants were beautiful, well packaged. I'll definately order from them again.

Outstanding all around...

Good website. Prices are good. Service personable, friendly and efficient (adjusted the computer-generated ship date for my zone to meet the shipping I requested).

But best of all were the size and quality of plants, and the packaging. All of these were *better* than what I've gotten from Plant Delights, who charge premium prices for what they provide (translation -- expensive!) (Nothing against PDN... I've done repeat business with them -- my point is that GardenCrossings exceeded PDN's plant size and packaging, but at bargain prices).

I will absolutely be ordering from these folks again. Soon!

This was a great company to work with!!! The website is very user friendly and very attractive. Their plants were in great condition and very nice size. The packaging was so thoughtfully done so the dirt would stay in the pot, and staked so the plant would not move around. I will for sure be ordering from this company again!!

I found out about these guys by accident when I ordered something from Paradise Gardens when they shipped my order from Garden Crossings. I found their website and have order many, many plants from these folks. At a big savings over Paradise Gardens. Always good size, healthy plants, never disappointed. Great luck with the clematis I have purchased from them. I had one clematis that didn't make it, told them about it, and they sent me a replacement plant immediately. It was even bigger than the orginal plant. Great customer service and guarantee. You wont be disappointed with these folks.

I originally ordered a grass from Paradise Gardens. I was suprised when they emailed me to let me know that my miscanthus would be sent out from Garden Crossings. Well I looked up Garden Crossings website and was amazed to find out that they are a lot less expensive than PG. I decided to order more plants from them. My first order contained between 5-7 plants (I can't remember exactly) but what I can remember is the fantastic quality of these plants! They were packaged so well - the dirt didn't even spill in the box! Then I ordered some gift certs and had the pleasure of speaking to one of the "owners" of the business. He was fantastic! Since then, I have ordered several more times - always receiving wonderful plants at a good price. Give this place a shot and you will be glad you did!

The web site is terrifically informative and easy to use. The order arrived with all of the plants in good shape. Care in packing is unmatched by any of the other mail order nurseries I've used. The quality of the plants was very good, notwithstanding the time of year and the problems that often exist with buying at the end of the season. The selection of clematis was excellent. I found more of the items I was looking for available from them than from anywhere else late this season. Late season values are high indeed. And above all, the border looks beautiful, even for having just been planted.

I searched the internet and the local garden centers for weeks trying to find a particular clematis variety for a reasonable price. I finally ran across gardencrossings.com. I must say after ordering from mail order nurseries for years, this is hands down the best service I have ever had. Not only were they the best value, their plants were larger than any I have ever received. My plants were sent immediately and arrived within a few days in excellent condition.
