Comments regarding Georgia Vines

I have ordered from Georgia Vines several times, through Ebay as well as directly from the website. I have always received stellar service and fast shipping. I would reccomend this site to anyone.

Personal note of appreciation, careful instructions - and westcoast delivery in 72 hours of healthy happy passiflora. Very good experience.

The plant was packed very well & in beautiful shape. Great planting instructions were given & communication was always quick. Will definitely buy from again!!!

great seller,good packer

Plants received today - very quick delivery - well packaged - plants look healthy - one came bare root and not looking too good, but I am sure with immediate planting it'll perk right up :-)

Ordered 2 Aristolochia species, both arrived quickly and were larger than expected. I would definitely do business with this company again-- in fact I plan on it.

The vine and seeds arrived very quickly and packed extremely well. I am very satisfied and would definitely buy from Dave's Garden again! Thank you!

I ordered a macademia nut tree (plant) and a whole list of passifloras, phormium, hibiscus, and aristolochia (pipevine) seeds. The tree (seedling) is a bit smaller than expected ($15) but extremely good looking and well packed. It arrived very fast and is a happy little champ. Then I had the pleasant surprise of finding 3 extra packets of bonus seeds, all listed for zone 8. Lori was also very responsive and helpful with my questions (emails), even AFTER I received the order.
Now I have just one concern (provided I can get the seeds to germinate LOL): will they make it outdoors in my zone 8a? All plants/seeds ordered are listed as hardy in zone 8, but subsequent research of other sites list them as 9 or even 10.

And speaking of zones: Does anyone know a RELIABLE site for zone hardiness? I find all kinds of discrepancies, sometimes as much as 2 whole zones, one nursery says zone 8, others say 10. Which one to trust? Any input anyone? I assume nurseries might push the envelope to sell their plants, but sometimes you just can not resist, the plants are exquisite and you just HAVE to try them...But at least you don't buy 10 different ones, like I did, instead, go easy with just one or two.
I would very much appreciate any info on macademia and pipevines, if any one has been successful with them in zone 8a? Thanks.

I am going to say "ditto" to what a previous customer said about Georgia Vines:

" I ordered a Bleeding Heart Vine (in March) and received the plant (less than a week later....all the way up here in Wisconsin!). The vining plant was packed so well I doubt it suffered postal handling. I especially liked how tape was wrapped around the mouth of the pot to keep soil inside, and a moist paper towel + shredding was packed around the base of the vine. "

This plant was in the best condition of any mail order plant I have ever received and larger than I had expected! I will definately order from this place again!

I have never ordered a live plant online before. Georgia Vines made the experience painless. I ordered a Bleeding Heart Vine on February 3rd and received the plant on February 6th. The vining plant was packed so well I doubt it suffered postal handling. I especially liked how tape was wrapped around the mouth of the pot to keep soil inside, and a moist paper towel + shredding was packed around the base of the vine. I followed the immediate care insturctions, to ease any stress, repotted a week after receipt, and my vine is doing great, even though St. Louis has had very few sunny days this month.

I ordered some aristolochia seeds from this place and received them quickly and they arrived in great shape and looked very fresh. I will be looking for more aristolochia species to order from here!!!

I have bought plants from Georgia vines on several occasions from their ebay auctions, have been very pleased with the plants and the service. They offer some nice vines fo r the rare plant collector

I ordered two different Asristolocia plants and they were packed extremely well, but, one had almost no root system and could probably been a new cutting at best just starting to get a couple of roots but was healthy. The other one did have a good root system. They were sent in a very timely fashion and shipping was free.

I sent in an order for seeds for various types of asclepias. I received my order very quickly and packaged along with my order were two "bonus" packs of seeds for two additional varieties of asclepias I had longed for but did not order. THANK YOU! I'm stratifying my seeds now and hope to have a whole batch of plants to show off! I will definitely be ordering from you again!!

I ordered a Lavender Lady passion vine. It came quickly and was very healthy. The vine was a good size for the price and I like that the shipping in included in the price of the plant.
