First of all, I probably wouldn't have ordered from this company if it wasn't for Garden Watchdog. I was skeptical because the prices are so good - I was thinking "you get what you pay for". But then I saw all of these excellent reviews and ordered 50 bareroot vinca minor. With the FREE shipping they arrived today (delivery took 3 days). Although I haven't planted them yet I am confident they will be fine. They look amazing. I wasn't expecting such large plants for a bare root order. Also, the roots are huge and very healthy. Now if it would only stop raining...

Last spring, I ordered 150 daylilies as a gift for a friend who had some ground to cover. The plants were clean, healthy and well packed. I still regret that I didn't take one or two for my garden but expect to place an order for myself one day soon. Perfect vendor.

Awesome plants, huge healthy roots, fast delivery. I've ordered from other companies and paid more for much less. I am very impressed with the quality and service and am telling everyone in my address book.

I placed a second order with them -- they sent me a coupon, how could I resist? And the plants were HUGE, promptly delivered, and are thriving. THANKS classygroundcovers, you'll be hearing from me again!

Wow! These people greatly exceeded my expectations -- twice! Two orders of 50 daylillies each. They shipped exactly as ordered, in great packaging, in the timeframe they promised and in great condition.

I tried two other mail-order companies before and it was a nightmare. This is it for me.

Great Job!

Classy Groundcovers is a class act in every way. I ordered 50 daylilies- my first time ordering such a plant so I wasn't quite sure what to expect. They were shipped quickly and arrived very carefully packaged. The roots are huge and so healthy looking! I planted them immediately and then counted them. There weren't 50...there were MORE! All this for under $25. Unfortunately my home is up for sale and I probably won't get to enjoy the full benefit and beauty of these plants, but I will definitely be ordering from Classy Groundcovers again when I move into my new home and get my garden all planned out.

Ooops-don't want to mislead anyone. My order was under $30,not $25...but still a tremendous bargain!!! :)

I placed my first order with Classy Groundcovers for for the wild flower, chrysogonum virginianum (green and gold), for a community rain garden. The potted plants arrived several days later in wonderful condition. They have been in the ground for several weeks and are already spreading on the berm where they are planted. I have shared my experience with some of my gardening friends about your service and great products. You provided what the major nurseries in the area did not have available. Thank you.

I ordered 150 bareroot daylilies, received them quickly and securely packaged. What still amazes me is the size they are, I have given up on ordering plants... mostly small in size and /or moldy. These are absolutely the healthiest bareroots I have ever recieved.
Their Customer service is excellent... I was not left wondering if they received any emails, they always responded to any questions.
I am going to order more, actually already did. Another thing is they care about the condition of the plants, no sitting in a hot dark box over the weekend. Going to pass their name on to friends and relatives. Got to say Thanks again to Classy Groundcovers you have a satisfied customer here.

1100 ajuga reptans is what I figured would be needed for a perfect groundcover on a hillside coming up my driveway. With a little trepidation I placed the order to be shipped on the following Monday. I needn't have worried. By Wednesday afternoon the order had been delivered. Classy Groundcovers had met and exceeded my expectations. Every single plant arrived in pristine condtion. The plants were larger, healthier, and less expensive the ones I looked at just last week at my local nursery. The price difference was nearly 30 percent. My hat is off to a company that still believes the the best business plan is to satisfy the customer with prompt and efficient service, combined with a competively priced quality product.

I ordered a bundle of 50 mixed daylily plants. What I got was 86 plants. I got at least 50 plants with root systems the size of my hand or larger plus another 36 smaller ones. Some of the small ones only had one or two roots, but I planted them as separate plants.

After having a very poor experience with another company this year, I wanted to be sure and applaud Classy groundcovers for supplying the healthy, vigorous, and good sized Dianthus plants that I received last year. They have quadrupled in size since planting them last spring, and have been in full bloom now for 3 weeks. If you could see the broken starts I received from another company last week, you would understand why I wanted to put in this review now. This company puts faith back into the mail order experience! Next time when Classy doen't have what I want, I think I will just come up with a substitute plant!

What a find. I just happened across this web site last week and ordered 50 daylilies just to see what they would be like since the price was excellent and the free shipping was a bonus. I received the daylilies today only three business days after placing my order. The daylilies are beautiful and healthy and well packaged. These plants look like they have just been dug right out of the garden. I have been ordering plants for several years and never have I received such healthy beautiful plants from these other big name big price plant and seed companies. I wish I had found them before. I will definitely be a return costumer.

I ordered 24 ice plants from Classy groundcovers in March. I specifically specified to please not ship until April. I was having surgery and would be gone for a month. The request is printed on my invoice.

Unfortunately, they shipped them very quickly and they arrived within a week -- when I got back home 2 weeks later, they are all pretty dead.

The plants were packaged well and in pots and looked like they were probably pretty good size plants originally.

Classy groundcovers called me and is reshipping the entire order. I am very impressed -- I just e-mailed them today.

Received our first order from Classy Ground Covers yesterday (24 phlox, 70 pachysandra and 100 bare root daylillies).

As others have already stated, the plants arrived in excellent condition. Which has NOT been our experience with other "popular" mail order nurseries. The daylillies we purchased were on sale -at 67 cents a piece - WOW is all I can say - they were impressive in size and condition.

Today, I ordered an additional 48 phlox and 200 daylillies. Need I say more ....

As others have mentioned, the orders are received in days - not weeks. With Classy Ground Covers, I can PLAN when I will be working in the garden. Versus some other mail order companies when you never know when the plants will arrive.

Finally, as a response to their "minimum quantities", which may be too many plants for a small, single gardener - I say find some gardening friends and divey up the plants!

This company also sent a "Classy Groundcovers" cap along with a planting tool...a nice surprise. Classy, clever advertising! Don't let the word "groundcover" keep you from looking at their plants. If you need plants at great prices, this is the place!

I have a very steep slope that is difficult to mow. I'd been looking for an evergreen groundcover, and after some research, decided to try asiatic jasmine. Classy Groundcovers is the only place I was able to find a large number of starter plants at a good price. As promised, the shipment arrived before the weekend, and was very well packaged and moist. I planted them the next day, and they are all looking good. I'm looking forward to having the groundcover fill up the slope to not only look great, but also cut down on maintenance. One of the best parts of the transaction was the free shipping, which went a long way in helping make my decision.

Just needed to add my two cents.
Since finding this company on Dave's in the spring, I've place 3 orders. I can't say enough about both the condition of the plants and all the sphagum I get with the plants [use it in the garden]. Kudos also to the wonderful customer service. I emailed about an oversite and my e-mail was returned almost instantly by a phone call. Unfortunately, I got to the call as it was being hung up.After returning the call and getting a bad connection, my called was returned 3 times until it was a good one. The owner apologized and answered my questions, and immediately took care of my concerns. Unlike some I've dealt with in over 40 yrs of gardening, this company is
A-1 with me for the plants, prices and service.

Having just stumbled onto Dave's website, I was thrilled to see ratings of plant sources. After reading all of the positive reviews for Classy Groundcovers, a company of which I had not heard of before, I thought I'd place a "test" order of 20 ivy plants. I am just as pleased as everyone else at the condition of my plants! This plant source has been a real find!

I recently ordered 50 day lillys from Classy Ground covers and they arrived, nicely packaged, within 2 days. They arrived in single fans and the roots were in great shape and moist. What most surprised me was that they were shipped during the hottest days of the summer so far and they arrived in great shape! I'm in the Worcester, MA area and these came from GA in 2 days.

I'd highly recommend Classy Ground covers and will definitely go back for purchases in the future!

I was just looking through Garden Watchdog and found Classy Groundcovers. when I read about the free shipping [over 28 dollars] and saw the prices I thought this is one of thouse thing that is to good to be ture. They even ship UPS/FedEx in one to three days. When I got my box in three days [for Tx.] the box was waxed and very strong like the plant farms send flowers to the florist. The plants were in perfect condishton. No heat damage at all. For Texas in late june that is very hard to do. I sent another order the next day. Joan

We used Classy Groundcovers for the first time to order 100 Lily Turf plants and we were extremely pleased with the service we experienced. Since this was our first attempt with online plant ordering, we felt hesitant to commit to the process, However, the healthy plants arrived on the expected date and we even received a great trowel and visor ahead of time. We will definitely do business with Classy Groundcovers again in the future.

This was my first purchase from Classy Groundcovers but it won't be my last.

I have recently been forced to try mail order nurseries/Ebay vendors due to lack of selection locally. The experience has been one of somewhat mixed results, at least until today.
Classy Groundcovers really came through for me.

My order (which included a handy free gift or two) came promptly and the plants were vigorous and large.
I purchased 60 groundcover plants of two types for 160 dollars with free shipping ! I hope Kevin knows what he is doing financially because I don't see how he can afford to price as he does.
Regardless, he obviously knows plants.

I got great plants, timely shipping, and hard to understand value.

Thanks Kevin!
