Comments regarding New Hampshire Hostas

First time buyer.

I bought and received 3 Hosta plants and 1 plug.

Each Hosta arrived in excellent condition, well-rooted.
One is flowering.

Prices are reasonable, plants securely-wrapped, super-fast shipping.

I recommend New Hampshire Hostas. A 5* Nursery.

Just received 2 hosta and they are GREAT. Much larger than I expected. Same great service that I got last year when I purchased 3 hosta that are all standouts already.

Reliable and quick service can't be beat.

Thank you for the top quality hostas.Fast shipping and package was a great bonus.I will definitely order again!

I received my eight hostas (mixed varieties) from NH hostas and couldn't be happier. The plants look very healthy, and I received the order quickly. Would order from them again.

I ordered from NH Hosta based on the positive comments offered by other gardeners. I could not have been happier with the heuchera plant plugs when they arrived two days later! The plants were healthy, great size and well packaged. I placed them in the ground immediately and they look like they have always belonged there. Great product, fine company...I will be ordering again in the near future!

I read all of the positive reviews for New Hampshire Hostas, and just had to place an order to see for myself if all the comments were justified. Well I can report they were and the plants were received in perfect condition. Large plants arrived in 4.5 inch pots and easily transferred to my containers.
Thanks Richard "Ill be back!" to order again

I ordered three Regal Supreme hostas on Saturday night. They arrived at my home on Wednesday. They were packaged with care, completely undamaged and intact, and very vigorous. I am very satisfied with the product and feel the price to value is excellent. I appreciate being able to select from hundreds of varieties and choose the hostas that best fit my space and environment. The website provides excellent information about each variety. The directions that accompanied the plants was thorough and complete. At the garden store, the selection is limited to only 4-5 varieties and the prices are expensive. As far as I am concerned, I will be ordering my hostas from NH Hostas from now on.

I received my first order of 7 hostas from New Hampshire Hostas last week, chosen from their weekly specials. I am absolutely delighted with the company. The hostas are very healthy and much larger than I expected. They arrived 4 days after I ordered them and the packaging was top rate. The hostas were very fresh just as if they were dug the same day.
I highly recommend the company and will definitely be buying from them again. Great job, Richard! Thank You.

Healthy plants, a large inventory to choose from, extremely fast shipping, reasonable prices…what more could you ask for? We ordered a total of 14 hosta, which were a combination of sizes ranging from 35 mm starter plugs to 4.5 inch pots. Our plants were delivered within three business days of placing the order, and the box was packed perfectly so none of the plants were damaged. The plants themselves were green and healthy. No brown, wilted leaves or visible disease. I fully expect them to take off without a hitch and become nice full mounds by this time next year. I highly recommend NH Hostas, and will definitely be doing business with them again.

First time ordering from NH Hosta and I was very impressed with the size of the Starter Plugs, speed of shipping my order and the reasonable prices. I purchased Hosta Key West and Hosta Gentle Giant (both starter plugs). Very happy and satisfied with my purchase and will be purchasing more in the future. Highly recommend.

I just received my "Orange Marmalade" Hosta today and I was so excited that it was so beautiful and healthy. I immediately put my hosta in a larger container. I have looked a very long time for one and decided oneday recently just to order online. I will definitely recommend New Hampshire Hostas / Dave's Garden to whom ever. Thank you so much.
P.S. I took pictures, it would be nice if I could have upload to this site, I will post on my Facebook page. Thanks again, NH Hostas :)

I received my order yesterday. They came within a few days of my placing the order. All the plants were in perfect condition! The hostas are small, but priced accordingly. Full sized plants from a garden center are twice the price, and local garden centers have very limited selections. Very happy with my purchase, and plan on ordering from NH Hosta again and again.

I ordered three Hosta plants from NH Hostas and just received them. They are in wonderful shape, great size and look to be very healthy. Can't wait to plant them. Will order again. Mary..Waukesha, WI

I requested delivery by a specific date, because of our cold winter. They readily complied. The plants were well packed and quite substantial for the cost. I will shop here again.

Great selection. Prompt delivery. Healthy good-sized plant at a reasonable price. Will buy here again. Thanks!

I ordered six Eternal Flame hostas. Delivery was timely and plants were wonderfully packed. Plants were nicely sized and look very healthy. Will definitely be a repeat customer.

I ordered 2 hostas which were very large and healthy, as were the ferns. They were very well rooted and should be very successful. The plugs were small. In fact, I didn't realize the 2 were wrapped together and I called the company to ask them where was the other plug. They told me to look at the packaging and I would see the second one. The person offered immediately to replace them if they were too small, but I think they'll be fine since they are healthy and well rooted. A very good value!

I ordered 7 hostas total. Two were in pots, the others were plugs. I was leery about ordering the plugs, as I didn't know what to expect. Well, no need to worry! The plugs were exceptionally healthy and VERY well rooted. I wholeheartedly recommend this company.

Since I recently relocated in the Northeast (west central PA), I thought I'd give this company a try. In general, I think it's a good practice to order live plants only from nurseries that are closer to your own locale, not across the country.

Ordered ten plants (Hostas and a Fern) and they arrived within a few days, as requested. PERFECT packing and one can see the plants were handled with loving care! Hardly a bend leaf in the bunch. They arrived fresh and moist and as lovely as if I had picked them off the nursery shelf myself. The plants are substantial and look vigorous and eager to grow. Even the couple of plugs were a decent size and healthy.

HIGHLY recommend this nursery for anything they carry. Very happy customer and plant to order again for years to come.

Ordered 11 hostas (6 plugs) and a fern, Due to my close prox.
to NH hostas delivery was overnight. can't comment on packaging
due to working late and someone else unpacked and watered.
all plants were impressive, root systems outstanding, my free plant
(Holy mouse ears) was in great condition. out of the 6 online distributors i used this season NH hostas i ranked #1.
(good job NH hostas). if they had a con it would have to be their $12 flat shipping fee that would keep someone from small orders.

This is the third spring that I have ordered from New Hampshire hostas. They consistently provide robust plants that survive. I especially like their plugs which are live plants well leafed out with robust root systems. I will be ordering again from them.

Selection was excellent. Prices were VERY reasonable. Plants arrived promptly and in beautiful condition. I'm looking forward to many more orders with this company!

I have ordered plants from them twice. Each time the plants were received at an appropriate time in a healthy condition. This time I was in New Hampshire and stopped by the store. It happened to be a day when they were not open to the public. We realized the store was closed and my wife an I prepared to leave when the owner, Mr. Merritt, motioned me in. He had seen my license plate and noted that I was from out of state. He and PJ took the time to help me select two plants and make arrangements for them to be sent to my home. I appreciated the help and the consideration.

The plant selection was good, prices were fair and the plants arrived in great condition. Very pleased.

Fantastic company to deal with and the hostas I bought from them are large, healthy specimens with massive root systems. Great selection, grest growing advice. I will definitely buy from them again!

Another positive vote for New Hampshire Hostas. My order was processed very fast. The plants were delivered quickly and looked great. Also, the plants are high quality for the price.

I received my order yesterday and was impressed. The packing of the pots with bamboo sticks to keep them from shifting in the packing box was excellent. All the plants were fresh looking despite the high temps during the journey from NH to TN. The size of the plants was as described on the webiste and all were well rooted. I had missed a plant on their website, and when I found that variety the next day they were still able to add it to my order. I would recommend this company.

Received the hostas today and they were packed very carefully and in excellent condition. Very nice instructions included. This is my second order in the last few years, and I am very pleased with the results.

Received my 2nd order in a month last weekend. As with previous orders, everything was in great condition. Everything has bee potted up and doing well. Once the heat breaks, I'll get them in the ground. It's just easier to keep an eye one them while they're in pots in one place.

I purchased 37 Hosta from New Hampshire Hostas via mail order and couldn't be more pleased. I received the plants in perfect condition. They are healthy and not stressed. When I saw how they packed the plants, I was very impressed.

Plants were very nice. It was as if I went to the nursery and hand picked the plants myself.

The website was very helpful and easy to navigate. The information from the website helped me easily plan out the hosta plantings.

Quality product and service. I'll be purchasing here again.

I recently ordered some starter plugs from New Hampshire Hostas. They arrived promptly (almost next day) and in great shape--well-wrapped and very healthy.

I was SO impressed with the excellent packing technique you use, and the perfect condition of the plants we received from you in May. We were also very pleased with your reasonable prices and the nice sized plants (not teeny tiny) we received, as well as the friendly answers to our questions over the phone. Our new hostas are doing beautifully! I certainly will order from you again, and will recommend your company to my friends. Thank you!

I got beautiful plants from New Hampshire Hostas. They were large Hostas, ready to go into the ground. I was very pleased with the size of the plants, they were healthy and in 4.5 inch pots and well packed. I got the order in four days. Prices were reasonable especially considering the size.

I have purchased over 75 Hostas from them and for an Internet business I would give them a A+ . There website is first class ,their servious is also. I know some people have had complaints about their shipping ,but to compared to some of the other dealers the potted plants are wonderful. Yes there maybe a little dirt loose in the box ,but a little water take care of that in a minute. Overall I find them to be the best.

First time ordering from this company. Went there in person while on vacation. Huge inventory and gorgeous, full grown hostas planted all over as well.Had twenty five hostas and heucheras shipped back home. All arrived in four days and all in perfect condition. You get huge plants for the dollar, not root stock. Will be ordering from them every year as no one online has a larger selection including four hostas farms I previously used here in Georgia.Very knowledgeable and helpful staff.Great sales as well.

I like miniature hostas and this company had two that I had wanted for a long time, silver threads and golden needles and tattoo.I paid 12.95 and 13.95 respectively where other nurseries were charging twice this, if they had them at all.The plants arrived quickly and were beautiful.They were also quite large and have settled in nicely.Definitely a quality nursery.

This is the first time I ordered from you and I was very pleased with the speed and the condition of the plants received. I'm always hesitant to order plants off line, but I can't find the mini and small hosta plants around here. I'm trying to find and collect the "Mouse Ears" hostas. I have a good start, but finding them is difficult, if not impossible for some. Thank you for your prompt service and beautiful plants.

I was very happy with my entire experience with New Hampshire Hosta. the ordering experience was great. the website has TONS of pictures and categorization, as well as great sales. they had a deal running for free shipping on purchases over a certain amount, which was nice, but shipping seemed pretty reasonable before having been removed on my checkout. on top of that, the package went from new hampshire to nebraska in two days flat. they were ordered monday morning, shipped tuesday, and planted thursday afternoon.

i was skeptical about the shipping involved. i really couldnt fathom how mature plants would be packed effectively for travel 1500 miles. i was amazingly suprised when i opened my box. not a single damaged leaf, not a single dried out root ball, not a single stressed plant. they were laid flat, but within 10 minutes in the air and a bit of light, and they were looking perfect... 'Toy Soldier' was particularly stunning. can't wait to watch my shade garden mature over the years. big thanks and highest recommendations for this companies products and services!

Great plants, great selection, packed beautifully, fast delivery, and good prices. A wonderful source. Thanks
