Negative | botanierra (4 reviews) | On May 11, 2022, botanierra Vernon, WI wrote: I have never been more disappointed in an order. Holly Hill has a very aggressive marketing strategy. They absolutely flooded my email with daily messaging, with rare exception. At least 5-6 emails a week. They are now unsubscribed. Beautiful pictures and promises. However they do not deliver in quality. For $177 I received a 12x12x6 box of plants. Most of which were about 5 in tall. Three items were not included and arrived weeks later. I feel insulted. I do not know how they stay in business, other than just swindling unsuspecting new people. It's not that the plants appeared unhealthy, just ridiculously tiny. As commented by at least one other person, I really wish I would have seen these reviews first. I'm a very long time gardener and I should have known better. |

I put a complaint in with paypay to get my money back. They all of a sudden deiced to answer they where waiting on the shipment from Florida to Pennsylvania. I was left with wondering why they would ship it from Florida to Pennsylvania then back to me in Florida. Still nothing 2 days before the time was up on the paypal complaint 2 plants show up with very similar leaves to the plant I wanted only to find out 5 days after that, that they where not the correct plants. I could not get money back and had 2 plants I did not want. Save your money DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. |

After several attempts, I have had no response to my emails. When I called them, the man who answered said he would contact me. He lied. |
Negative | ROSES_R_RED (5 reviews) | On May 27, 2014, ROSES_R_RED Mount Bethel, PA (Zone 6a) wrote: Bought 2 Wine and Roses Weigela. After a while when I didn't receive anything or get an e mail with shipping info, I called the company and left a message. Never got a reply. Tried e mail and that didn't do any good. Went to Paypal and opened a "complaint". My money was then refunded. These people are a joke. They offer more plants than I have ever seen in one place. They send nothing. |

When attempts to reach the seller via phone led to 'mailbox full' messages, I filed a claim. I received a refund, but never again. |

Negative | bellagvs (1 review) | On Jun 8, 2013, bellagvs Lawrence, KS wrote: After ordering plants in January it seems my order was forgotten. I finally received plants after contacting the vendor several times and they were the wrong species. I packed and returned them, and was promised a refund on the shipping and the plants themselves. The vendor HAD A SPECIAL SALE ON THE PLANTS I SENT BACK THE DAY AFTER HE RECEIVED THEM but I have not received any money back and he has stopped all communications with me. Horrible customer service! |
Negative | lilithwantsu (1 review) | On Jun 8, 2013, lilithwantsu Fairlawn, VA wrote: On January 20 I ordered a flat of jasmine nudiflorum for my wife's birthday. What I received was jasmine floridum. After arguing with Bill Glose that he did, indeed, send the wrong product he asked us to return the jasmine floridum and he would reimburse us for both the return shipping and the original order (provided he could not send us the jasmine nudiflorum). Now I have no jasmine and no refund and Bill Glose has stopped communicating with us. |
Negative | claraa1 (1 review) | On May 8, 2013, claraa1 BAILEYVILLE, KS wrote: I'm at the end of my rope. I have done business with Bill for many years and in the earlier years it was great. The last couple years I have continued to order and I'm not sure why. I guess because he offers quality plants at good prices, but not anymore! I pre-ordered (never, never, never do this) over $500 in plants in January with the understanding I would have a mid April delivery. Still no plants. I have people waiting on some of them and it is making me look like a complete idiot. Bill keeps promising plants - still, no plants. I told him as of Friday I file a Paypal complaint for the return of my money as well as a call to the Pennsylvania BBB. Enough is enough. |
Negative | Ken Morgen (1 review) | On Jan 10, 2013, Ken Morgen Cockeysville, MD wrote: I purchased the "last 4 leucothoe axillaris" in inventory at a discount on 12/15. I paid after receiving an invoice from Bill Glose via Paypal. Week after week passed with no plants, but frequent email exchanges in which Mr. Glose said they were being shipped "next week." Finally, I wrote yet again...probably the 10th time, asking for tracking information and was told that his "suppliers misrepresented their inventory" and that he was refunding my money, which he did. However, his web site is still showing leucothoe for sale! Beware this unscrupulous businessman. Obviously, a contract means nothing to him. Even though he refunded my money, I am not satisfied as I want the plants at the price we agreed upon, not the money. |

Negative | dennyboy34 (14 reviews) | On Apr 5, 2012, dennyboy34 Yonkers, NY wrote: Placed an order. No order confirmation. Had to send an email to get the order sent. My order was for a specimen cherry tree for my front yard - they sent a twisted stick - a very poor excuse for a tree - I am embarrased to plant it even in my backyard. Do yourself a favor, read the other reviews and find yourself another on-line nursery....there are plenty. Don't use Holly Hill. |

On 12/31/2011, the refund arrived, I'm sure thanks to the BBB. At least we did get our money back. |
Negative | pipe (1 review) | On Sep 9, 2011, pipe wrote: I've done purchases from Holly hill before. Communication is non-existent. Shipments can be short. This last time I paid and am still waiting, and waiting. I've given up. No responses received. Filed a credit card dispute. Lost confidence. Won't do business with Bill Glose again. |
Negative | audreymarmot (6 reviews) | On May 18, 2010, audreymarmot Annapolis, United States (Zone 7a) wrote: At first I was very happy with their low prices (plus free shipping on orders over $100), and when my first plants arrived in March they were healthy and well-rooted, even if they were small. But my order was incomplete, and there wasn't even an invoice to let me know I was missing from my order, let alone when they might arrive. I went several rounds with the owner, Bill, to track down what was missing. A few things trickled in here and there, but now, in May, TWO MONTHS LATER, still 5 of the plants were missing, with no word from Bill about when they might arrive. |
