Bought 3 banana plants and they arrived promptly and in perfect condition. Lots of helpful instructions in the package. A few weeks later they are all sprouting new leaves and look perfect. Would definitely buy again from this company. |

Ted behaved professionally at all times during our correspondence and answered any questions or concerns that I had in a timely manner. Would recommend this nursery. |

I contacted him about a plant on back order and he shipped it right away along with an additional banana I didn't even pay for. I am waiting for that plant to arrive but should be here soon. |

Not only a customer, but a new one as well. Ted has gone out of his way to make sure a less than good experience, be a great experience. Through no fault of "Green Earth" banana plants, my order spent too much time in the postal system and the plants I received were 'too tired' to go on living. I sent pictures and asked for advice on how to perhaps revive them. Nothing worked. I thought it might have been my error but Ted assured me and told me he would replace the plants. Even though Ted was ill he not only replaced them he sent an additional banana plant of higher quality than I originally purchased! My order in this process was - green2995-42869. |

Positive | HarmonyNoel (2 reviews) | On Jul 8, 2016, HarmonyNoel wrote: I purchased some tissue culture ice cream banana plants two years ago, and they shipped within 3 days. The plants arrived healthy and much larger than other mail order nurseries. I believe they were between 12-18" in length. Both survived and thrived once I planted them outside, and are still producing pups to this day. Also, Ted sent me an email when my order was placed, as well as an email when my order was shipped. Definitely great customer service. Thanks, Ted! |

He was busy as I suspect and got caught up. He sincerely and honestly apologized and accepted that it was an oversight and shipped a LOT of the pawpaw/papaya leaves to my mom - he shipped more than I requested for or paid for. He shipped it overnight and I talked to my mom and she has started taking it. Thank you Ted. |

From the original order I was in direct contact with the owner Ted. He is knowledgeable and kind . He is easy to work with and generous. I don';t give reviews EVER but felt the need to find a place to say THANK YOU! It is so nice in the internet age to still find someone running a business like Ted! He is quick to respond and so helpful I highly recommend to order from him and plan to do so again in the future. |

Ted, from Green Earth was phenomenal in answering my questions and concerns along with making sure the banana trees would arrive in time for my daughter's birthday. The trees did arrive on time although one tree was a bit damaged due to shipping. Ted was very concerned that I couldn't present my daughter with two perfect banana trees so he sent another to replace it. I was shocked because I never expected a replacement since the tree had very little damage. This just goes to show how, Ted not only takes pride in his products but also values his customers. I highly recommend Green Earth Publishing! |

I purchased two banana trees for my boyfriend for Christmas and at first I couldn't believe the price I had to look twice at it because it was so great!! Then when it said that they would be delivered within 2-3 days I was like this is too good to be true! Of course being a Christmas gift I was getting nervous and kept checking to see when it was shipped. When it was past the three days I contacted Ted and he got right back to me and apologized that they are very busy and that my trees have already shipped he just didn't have a chance to update my status. Well when I went home that night my banana trees were there waiting for me. I had my boyfriend open the box which was so well shipped and he had an instant SMILE on his face he was super excited!!! The two plants looked AMAZING such a great size so green and healthy!! I definitely won some brownie points with this Christmas gift Thanks Ted!!!! I will absolutely come here first for any of my future orders such wonderful service and product!!! Sincerely, Jennifer |

When the plants arrived within the week, they were healthy and a nice size. I emailed Ted Taylor a few times during the shopping process and he answered my questions within a reasonable time.

Positive | gmichael403 (1 review) | On Apr 26, 2015, gmichael403 Oklahoma City, OK wrote: My first experience with Ted was GREAT. I just recently got into banana plants. I ordered my first two basjoos from another vendor on amazon. Being my first bananas...and first plants in general to receieve via mail I thought they were small but healthy..and this must be the norm for baby banana plants. Fast forward...I wanted more and stumbled across Teds site. I ordered two Cal Golds. I received the tracking # and were expected at my door step in two days. The tracking stated they departed FL and were in route. Fast forward again...they did not arrive...no updates from the postal service. I opened a complaint with them to find out where my plants were. The postal service had no idea. TEN days later a damaged box was at my door step. I expected two brown twigs...not the case! The plants looked good considering the mysterious lengthy journey it took to arrive. The soil was dry..a couple leaves were droopy...and one broke (the side of the box was crushed) I replanted in one gallon pots...2 Daya later they looked AMAZING!.. The root balls were huge compared to my other vendor...the plants were 5 times larger. I updated Ted the entire time during my quest to find out where my plants were. I literally emailed Ted a dozen time...he replied back everytime within the hr! For a plant to be in such good shape...in a box..with no water or light...speaks volume to the quality of Tedz plants! For my frustration and "disappointment" for the process...Ted stated he will send me two more...and a bonus plant for free! To sum it up...I am a first time buyer...but not the last from Ted. I see no nees to shop around if he has what I am looking for. Thanks Ted for outstanding plants and outstanding customer service. All companies should display this type of care and concern to their customers. |

This was my first time ordering from them, and not only did my plants arrive earlier than I was expecting (for the time of year - I ordered over the holidays!) but in perfect glowing health. In fact, they looked better than many plants I've seen in nurseries that haven't gone through the mail! They were professionally packed, and even included an extra free plant I was able to give to a gardner friend of mine! Thank you so much! I will definitely order from them again - right now, as a matter of fact! |

Positive | Barfield2546 (1 review) | On Oct 14, 2014, Barfield2546 Cedartown, GA wrote: I have never purchased from greenearth before but I had always wanted a banana plant. The ones at my local greenhouses always looked like they were on their last legs, or they wanted a fortune for them. I usually always buy from the local places. That way you can see what you get. I took a chance with greenearth, and I wasn't disappointed! My plant came to my house looking like one of those pricy plants that local greenhouses wanted 50$ for. It was a stunning example of a banana plant! Absolutely gorgeous, it looked like it was just taken from the pot and placed in my hand. As if it never had been mailed to me. I can't stress enough how beautiful my banana plant was. I began taking care of it and it started to brown on the edges of the leaves. Knowing I knew very little about the care of a banana tree. I emailed greenearth and within 10 minutes they responded to me and instead of telling me I didn't know what I was doing, they were very helpful and nice to me. I received instructions on how to care properly for my plant and with two days it was back to its stunning self. I have decided that I will always purchase my plants from greenearth, I highly recommend them. I don't know how they do it, taking care of customers and plants at the same time but my experience was wonderful. All my plant purchases will be made with greenearth. The prices and quality and customer service can not be beat. I would love to go there one day. I cannot think of anything negative to say about them. They are absolutely wonderful! |
