Comments regarding T's Flowers & Things

I placed an order a while ago but just getting around to commenting. I placed an order with T's Garden. It was like going to a friend to get some seeds. The experience was very personal. I received my order timely and in great condition. I visit the site often to see if any of the items that I wanted that were unavailable are now available.

I ordered from Teresa in 2005. Each of the irises have now bloomed and they were true to name. Not only did they bloom but they were wonderful. I would definitely purchase from her again.

Theresa was very responsive to my emails. Although it was evening when I first began communicating, she got back to me within a half hour.

I purchased three echinacea Razzmatazz, at a much lower price from her. I received an email confirming the order, one to let me know when it would be sent, and another when it actually was sent. I received my order the next day and in good condition. Frankly, I'm amazed that one person could offer so much, and at such good prices.

I will definitely consider her again.

The seeds that I ordered came nicely packaged and arrived very fast. When I emailed Teresa with a question, the reply came within an hour and was very helpful. Very affordable and nice to deal with. Look forward to more business in the future.

I just placed my first order with this company and so far have been very pleased. The order included seeds (which have arrived) and a couple of daylilies which will be sent at a later date. I have great hope for the seeds and look forward to the daylilies. Teresa has been very pleasant to deal with and has taken the time to communicate with me regarding shipping arrangements and make sure i was happy with everything.

I will update when the plants arrive & the seeds grow.

I ordered a number of plants from Teresa and have nothing but good things to say about the experience.

The plants are doing great and although small compared to another place I ordered from, all are growing beautifully.

The packing was excellent and they were in pots, which I believe is why they are doing so great now. Not bare root like another company.

Communication with Teresa was professional.

Overall a great experience and a great addition to my garden.

I was very pleased with the plants that were shipped to me, and the value was excellent. I placed a small order this year, and the plants are growing well. I've bookmarked this site as one of my favorites. I'll order again next season!

After placing my order on the afternoon of May 26th, I received five healthy Lychnis chalcedonica (Maltese Cross) less than a week later, even with a long holiday weekend in between. The plants were thoroughly wrapped for shipping protection and well watered to survive the trip. I am very pleased with my order, and find T's online perennial selection to be better than what my local nurseries in Omaha have available.

Fast shipping, more seeds were in the package than I expected. Good germination. Wonderful to do business with. Thank you!

Extremely fast shipping.
I've ordered before and never been disappointed.
Sure makes selecting and ordering seeds a pleasure.

For a one woman shop, this is an amazing operation! Bravo to Teresa for getting it all together through good times and bad. Great selection, great prices, prompt shipping and lovely plants. I will be back when the ground starts to thaw and wish her all the best for 2006!

I was looking for Pardancanda (candy lily) seeds and these were the best price/quantity I could find. I ordered a few other things, paid with PayPal and had my seeds within 5 days. Super quick and all have very clear germination instructions printed on the packages. I'm looking forward to trying to grow these. I had a very smooth and fast sales experience and will be back for more.

T's flowers offers quick secure shipping. The seed packages are nice, she offers a large variety and her prices are inexpensive. Since I've just received my order I am unsure about germination rates, but if only half germinate I will consider them a bargain.

I am still a beginner at starting plants from seeds and what I ordered from T's Flowers did very well. I got the Bells of Ireland to germinate based on her instructions. I also had very good results from the mixed celosia, calleopsis, nigella, ageratim, and chim chiminee. My hellenium has buds on it, so I will have a perenial that blooms the first year! My digitalis is on par to bloom next year. I saved a lot of money ordering through T's and starting from seeds helped me get through the winter.

Got my plants quickly. They were actually bigger than the picture had said and were in good condition. She even sent me some bonus plants. Teresa was very friendly and communicated well. I will definitely be back!

Hello fellow gardeners,

We are just starting our garden, and ordered some hard to find plants: monarda jacob cline, and tutti frutti agastache. At least they are hard to find in our local plant places!..

The order arrived on schedule; the plants were well watered, and wrapped in newspaper. They were much bigger then I expected!

The only downside was the wait (one person, good inventory, lots of orders) - but it was well worth it.

The plants were ever so slightly wilted when I opened them from the box, and one had a broken stem, but it may have been me taking them out of the box too roughly.

The day after planting in the ground, they are standing tall. It may be my imagination - but it looks like the Monarda stood up to almost a foot tall !

I would definately order again, just much earlier next time.

Thank you T!

Today I ordered Sedum purple emperor from T's. In the evening, my husband informed me that the paypal payment had been rejected. I was disappointed, but not completely unsurprised, since it's been sold out at several other online nurseries.

Imagine my delight when I checked my e-mail. It turns out that the Teresa no longer had the 3 1/2" pot size available. Instead, she was mailing me quart size plants instead (for the same price!), the only difference would be slightly increased shipping charges.

Who says customer service is dead? As far as I'm concerned, I'll be ordering more from here.

I ordered seed from her 5 days ago and the seeds arrived today. All the seeds come in nice seed packets with the the instructions to sow the seed and a small picture for reference. I do not know anything about the germination sucess but the prices are good and the customer service can't be beat.

I've ordered seed from Teresa in the past. Her prices are phenomenal, shipping is prompt and germination results are high. I hope to order seed from her again and look forward to ordering bulbs and plants from her too.

"

I am very upset about this negative because this customer never made an attempt to let me know of the dissatisfaction of the plants, or that the seeds didn't come true. My policy clearly states that if you are unsatisfied with your plants when you receive them, return them for a full refund including shipping. I like to know if seeds don't come true, especially if they are commercial seeds. Most of the seed that I harvest is open pollinated, so I indicate on the web pages to expect some variation or that plants may not grow true to parent, such as aquilegias and buddleias."

I was rather persistent in ordering from T's Flowers recently,
as I've ordered from her before and been nothing but pleased.

I was not aware of her divorce until I'd pretty much
pestered the poor woman, and then she
explained her hesitation on my order.
Ah, but she went ahead and helped me!

Again, and even during her troubles, Teresa
was helpful and kind, filling my order as best she could,
and I completely understand a delay in such a
situation.

It's a shame more folks don't take into consideration these
are human beings processing their orders.
Teresa may have had difficulties, but she makes it right by the customer.

It is very difficult to run things by oneself, most
especially during troubling personal problems one does
not foresee.

My order arrived better than expected and I could not
ask more of her. I wish her only the best and a
smooth transition as her life enters a new phase.

A simple review of all the positive feedback she has
will show you that obviously her manner of conducting
business is very good.

When she is back to selling, I will be the first one
in line as a customer!

My apologies to those who didn't receive their orders. I'm just a one person business trying to give a good product to home gardens at a very reasonable price. In late winter I received divorce papers. I had to make a quick move which caused my plants to be in disarray. I then had severe depression which I'm still trying to pull out of. But thanks to the help of friends, I was able to make refunds to those who placed orders which I couldn't fill either because of my state of mind or because I couldn't find the plants to ship. Thanks to all those others who didn't receive their orders for their patience.

I also had my order canceled for no apparent reason(at least none was give). I recieved my money back but was disappointed, as I was counting on the flowers I had ordered. I submitted my order early so it was not like their was insufficient time to process and plan ahead. I would like to order again as the prices are great.

I ordered a variety of seeds in late winter from T's and have been very pleased. Prompt shipping, good germination -will probably order again next year.

Ordered seeds and plants early this year. Seed order short one packet which was promptly shipped when I made it known. But being promised plants to be shipped in may and then receiving no plants is something else. I've now lost a years growth. My money was refunded after I emailed and asked why my plants hadn't arrived. But I received no email saying my plants would not be available prior to my asking where they were. I won't order again from this company.

I placed a reasonably large seed order and am quite happy with the result. The seed selection is big, inexpensive, and largely unlike selections found elsewhere. The seeds were well packaged and well labelled, the seeds germinated well.

The website itself is going thru some growing pains right now though, so be warned.

This is my second year at odering from T's. As allways the items are fantastic in packaging and quality. I wish all companies would follow there example. It is not only a pleasure when they arrive but when they bloom they are exactly what was ordered on strong healthy plants.
P.S. my Iris bloomed 6 weeks after planting. It definately was a rebloomer and the lisianthus can not be beat by seed or by seedlings. Thank you!

I cannot say enough positive things about T's Flowers & Things!
I found a wonderful selection & got a swift response & delivery. Prices are fantastic, the packaging is great with easy to read directions & a wonder picture of the flower. I love this place& I am headed back for more as soon as I am done here!

Excellent prices & great germination.
This was my first year ordering and I am very pleased. Seeds are sprouting!
Also very good germination instructions on seed packets.

I have ordered many times from here, and have always been very VERY happy! Always fast shipping.

I am from Canada and I made my first purchase from T's a few months ago. Her communication was very good and she gave excellent guidance with my purchase. Not everything was in stock at the time of my purchase but she informed me of when they would be in stock and both the original and backorder was shipped on time. She has a very good informative website and great prices and variety. Seeds I planted have germinated well and I plan to purchase again.

Have placed an order with Teresa over the weekend and have had EXCELLENT communication from her regarding problems I had with the website to shipping details and order confirmation. She even advised that she had substituted a larger size on one of the plants I ordered. The shipment is due to arrive tomorrow and can't wait to get them. Will update comments once the order is received (I couldn't wait to post feedback as I'm over the top impressed with her communication).

Last fall I ordered from T's and had GREAT germination (100%) from her seeds. I would recommend her Daylily seeds to all. Also communication and shipping top notch. Prices are so reasonable especially for someone just starting out growing Daylilys like me. Keep up the good work.

Ordering from T's was a wonderful experience: great prices, prompt email acknowledgement and subsequent shipping information, excellent plants packed with care, and a refund of an overpayment that I would not have known existed had Teresa not told me. (She was able to ship some Iris with my other plants, so she refunded the separate shipping charges I had prepaid.) I will definitely be reordering, as her stock, and my limited garden space allow. This resource is the find of the year!

Earlier in the year I ordered daylily seeds along with several perennial flower seeds. I received them very quickly and well packaged. I have had a great germination rate with all of the seeds I purchased. Along with all of this, the prices are outstanding! I will certainly be ordering again next year. Highly recommended!

Ordered seeds on Monday through the web site. Seeds were shipped on Tuesday and arrived here nicely packaged on Thursday. A free pack of seeds was also included. Nice job!!
P.S. Great prices and reasonable shipping rates.

I've just placed my first order and received an email within 15 minutes of placing order. Of course I didn't read the fine print about the minimum order deal and she refunded my credit card immediately. I did place another order, hopefully this time I followed the rules. Her prices were great. I've been looking for Plume Poppy for literally years and her were very reasonably priced. I hope the quality of plants is as good as her customer service.

More to come

Simple comment - order from this company; good variety, wonderful prices, exceptional service.

I found this site as a source for daylily seeds by accident, and I think it is a gem of a store. The prices are amazing (really the best on the net), the service is amazing, and the selection of cultivars are both unique and suitable for almost everyone living in different climate zones. Unfortunately, the quantities are limited and as I see that someone else has found the site as well, it can't remain a little secret any longer! In regards to shipping, I ordered my seeds this winter, from Canada through mail (it took a week to reach them) and I recieved my order three days thereafter. Nice. (Just in time for Christmas!) I was worried but I got all the varieties I wanted and I even recieved a bonus! Words cannot express the joy.

By the way, this is the first time I'm growing daylilies by seed, therefore I won't have anything to add about the germination rate and my success till spring, but the seeds look plump, healthy, and shiny, and they've been packaged in the most delightful little peach envelopes with a sticker for instructions on them! They've also been individually identified by hand! What class I tell you! To make the story short, I find this to be a very special place. It's really unique and accomodating, and I'll be looking forward to next season for more daylily seed varieties.

Happy Holidays!

I recently learned about this company. Although I have not grown any seed yet from this company, I have ordered and am rating based on this. Teresa is extremely prompt and helpful in responding to all questions. She followed up via e-mail on when payment was received and when shipping was to be expected . Seeds arrived safely packaged with detailed instructions on envelope. This on top of great prices! Although her catalog is not as extensive as a Burpee or Parks, her service is great.
