Negative | jakeknifey (2 reviews) | On Mar 18, 2012, jakeknifey Fitzgerald, GA (Zone 8b) wrote: Las year Willis Orchards mistakenly sold me 6 flowering pear trees instead of the fruiting kind that I paid for at their local nursery outlet in Berlin Georgia. all these trees flowered beautifully then formed tiny one inch pears that remained on the trees until Fall. I shwoed one of the workers these small pears that dont fall and he agrre to replace them free of charge this spring. When I went back to willis orchards for my replacement trees last week, all the leaves and buds had been ripped off, and the worker told me they had to pull off all the leaves because of an unusually early spring. There were lots of migrant workers in the field surrounding the nursery digging up trees and pulling off the leaves and loading them on trucks. This seemed suspicious to me that they were replacing my wrong trees with trees that would be stressed and weakened by pulling off the leaves. Willis should be ashamed for practicing such shady ways!

Not to mention the two towns noted are so close to each other. It's just strange when we have so so few customers from this area. Out of +20,000 customers a year, the state of Georgia ranks about 10th and 90% of the folks are from north Georgia. Yet one of our infamous competitors is located about 15 minutes from both Fitzgerald and Ashburn. |

Last spring (2011) I placed an order for nine trees. It was late in the season but Willis made the decision to fill it. When I received the shipment I saw there were problems in the way it was poorly packaged and the bark on some trees had shriveled. We planted the trees properly and gave them good care. Only one, a small pomegranate tree, grew. I returned the bottoms and packing slip as requested and requested fall shipment of the replacements. They acknowledge receipt of the shipment with a list of what I had returned. Without reviewing it I filed it. |

The plants arrived in poor condition, but I planted them. The first year the thompson seedless did well with only 20% loss. The Black Monuka vines didn't fair as well with 80% loss. I followed the warrenty requirements, and returned the dead vines. Willis took it upon them selves to decide how many to return to me, instead of replacing all of the vines that I returned to them. I replanted, and ended up with 8 "Black Monuka" vines out of the 10 that I planted, none of the Thompson vines made it the second year. Well the third season arrived and I was pretty stoked to see the large berries developing on some of the 8 vines. When they ripened, I was pretty disapointed. Of the 8 vines, all of them were white seeded grapes of at least three different varieties. Just wanted to let everyone know, BE CAREFUL with this place! |

If they are a small family run business then they are going thru growing pains. It will take some good continuous improvement for them to clean things up. |

As for the Lang Jujube, I sent you a picture and even Jason admitted that is not Lang jujube. If there is always manager in office as you indicated, why the lady answering the phone always saying the manger is not available at the time.

Although eating while still green. Sorry he's frustrated but doesn't justify a negative review. This is a prime example of DG's negative reviews, although few relative to the 25,000 plus customers per year we serve. Do the statistics before making final judgement. However, we did do all we could to assist this gentlemans issue. We are a small family operation that appreciates and strives to please all our customers....despite the many false posts on DG. Notice 90+% have only a single review. Humm?" |

Besides eating my money doing business with Willis orchards set me back a year in my ambitions for this garden project and disappointed me emotionally. I'm not going bother to return the deceased trees because I don't want to deal with this company ever again, as I would just expect to be disappointed again after having this previous experience. |

I could send it back if not satisfied but thought the plant would die shipping it back during the heat of June so I kept it as they suggested. The tree had a few leaves on it at first when it came but the cherry tree did not bloom after planting and now is totally dead in august. There is no green on it and no leaves and I did not see an invoice on the box when it came. Willis wont refuse my dead cherry tree or send a replacement and Im out over 100 BUCKS and very unhappy that they dont keep copies of there sales invoices. |

No sign of life or growth in Spring or Summer of 2011 on all fruit trees planted and shipped during fall of 2010. Willis Orchard sends replacements in fall but I fear they will die if they strip all the leaves off in November like they did last time. Inferior weak replacements are forcefully my choice even tho I wanted a refund that they wont do, so I am their victim for the last time. |
Negative | farmrsdaughter (2 reviews) | On Aug 2, 2011, farmrsdaughter Woodbine, IA wrote: I ordered a HoneyCrisp apple tree over a year ago and they shipped it in a timely manner last fall. I paid for one of the larger trees, which came to about $80. I was pleased with the size and quality of the tree when I opened the box and planted it, the same day it arrived. This spring most of the larger/longer branches leafed out and I was pretty happy with the tree and the company. Then, the leaves on the longer/larger branches started to dry up and die and those same branches died back. I now have a small shrub looking tree that is about 30 inches tall. I contacted the company and eventually sent pictures of the tree. The response was that the branches must have "not made it through the winter" and that I should trim them back so one of the others would become the leader. I paid a LOT of money for a tree that may or may not make it and the "year guarantee" will be up in October. So, to make a long story short, DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY! The guarantee is worthless and you will NOT get your money back or even a replacement. The latest response -- "We do have a one year guarantee for plants that die but we surely can't be responsible for pure acts of nature. Were we in any way negligent I would understand your position." What do they guarantee? If I had purchased this tree at a local nursery (if it had been in stock I would have), the guarantee would have been good for two years and they do cover winter death. I have been gardening since I was old enough to walk with my Grandma and Mom and was raised on a farm I know a thing or two about gardening and I am VERY disappointed with this company. I learned a lesson the hard way - |

When the box arrived in early June, I noticed right away that the box was very small, around 3 feet, and I had ordered blueberries 3-4' and pecan trees that were supposed to be 4-5'. I did open the box and all of the plants were inside, but no where near the size I had purchased. I called Willis and was told they pruned my plants free of charge and that about 1/3 was removed from the tops. These tops couldn't have had more than an inch pruned from them as skinny as they are! I think this pruning thing is a rouse to send smaller trees so Willis Orchards can make more money! |

Both were received planted and both trees formed pears this year. They were ordered as Asian pears, Chojuro and Hosui Asian pears. As it turned our they were definitely not Asian Pears at all, which have a round shape and not pear shaped. I have grown Asian pears before and their flavor is much superior to other pear types and the flesh is softer. When I called Willis I was told that they could only offer a free replacement next season but next season is 2012, and I will have to wait till 2014 to see if their replacement pear trees are wrong varieties like the first order. That means overall that II have to wait 5 years to see if Willis is still unreliable after 5 years. Willis says it offers no refunds so I am out a lot of money and remain a very unhappy customer. I believe the law or a judge should punish such unethical nurseries! |

Check the BBB and Dave's Garden before ordering fruit trees and don't buy anything from Willis Orchard Co. |

I called them again and again, and I was told they didn't got the dead tree root which I returned. I was asked to show them the receipt from post office, this is really ridiculous because I just put the envelope in the mailbox and no way to get the receipt from the postman when he picked up the mails. |

I was hesitant ordering blueberries this late in the year but wanted to complete my berry patch. The order arrived with leaves wilted and planted right away and watered well but the plants remained wilted and after a couple of days the leaves turned brown and fell off. The stems of the blueberries turned black shortly after and are completely dead. I have now lost a whole year of hoping to eat blueberries from those plants and think that a refund is in order since Willis Orchard sent me plants that had leafed out prematurely but they don't offer refunds in their policy, only replacements. It is too hot to get replacements in June and they sent my original order too late in the year anyway. I am disappointed in Willis Orchard Co and do not trust them anymore and will contact the BBB to help me. |

I was a complete amateur, and unfortunately the first website I found was Willis. I ordered dozens of fruit and nut trees, as well as grapes and berries. As of today, only four trees remain. They have replaced some dead trees, (shipped back at my expense), and those were either dead or died quickly. Two replaced apricot trees from last year arrived with canker, (as I've now learned to identify), and today I threw in the towel trying to save them and tossed them in the fire. I've given all my trees good soil, plenty of sun, water, and regular spraying, but the products from Willis always seem to be weak, abused, or diseased. |

Negative | beachguru (2 reviews) | On May 18, 2011, beachguru Delray Beach, FL (Zone 9a) wrote: Last Spring I ordered over $100.00 worth of banana trees from Willis Orchard. The golden African banana tree arrived soft and mushy and never formed a new leaf and was later dead. The so called pineapple banana tree, the lady finger banana tree and the ice cream banana lived but all three appeared to be the same kind of tree, looking identical in color, leaf and height. My next door friend is a collector of banana tree varieties and a member of a American banana society, and he tells me that the Willis Orchards alleged marketed names of bananas on the Willis website are all generic terms, meaning in descriptive terms- that the ice cream bananas are used to make ice cream, the pineapple variety tastes a little like pineapple to some people, and the lady finger fruit is shaped like a ladies finger. My friend says Willis Orchards is trying to sell customers these different banana trees but is pretending to actually have three distinctly different kinds of bananas. In my opinion the act of continuing to do that is fraud and I think that someone ought to investigate their misleading practice. Its plain dishonest! |

However, 3 out of the 4 apricot trees seem to be in pretty bad shape and I have serious doubts that they will make it. It's odd that the grapevines are all doing so well, but most of the the apricots are doing poorly. All 26 trees I ordered from Adams County Nursery have now produced leaves and appear to be doing well. On December 7th, 2010, Wolfcastle added the following: My three replacement apricots arrived last night and were promptly placed into holes that had been dug in anticipation of their arrival. Overall, the replacement process was fairly easy and contrary to some other people's experiences, the people at Willis were rather friendly about it. My only serious complaint I have with them is that at least one of the ten vines they sent me was mislabeled so I'm not confident as to the authenticity of the other varieties. Overall, I think I would order from Willis again if I wanted to place a smallish order of trees and vines and I wanted more of a selection than I can find at my local home improvement store. If you're planning on spending more than ~$300 on fruit trees, I would HIGHLY recommend Adams County Nursery and if you're planning on spending more than ~$200 I've heard good things about Double A vineyards and will be placing an order with them. If you're planning on spending less than those threshold amounts (and more than $50) Willis Orchards deserves a look. On May 11th, 2011, Wolfcastle changed the rating from positive to negative and added the following: All of the replacement apricot trees that were sent have died, so that means my trees from Willis had a survival rate of 1 out 7...and I'm now highly suspicious that grapevines that were sent are not the correct variety. Finally, it looks like Willis might be creating accounts here to post good reviews. Case and point is the recent post from dixielw. It seems like a nice review, but Willis doesn't ship trees to California due to Federal laws. On May 11, 2011, Willis Orchard Company responded with: "On Nov 8, 2011 3:01 AM, Willis Orchard Company responded with: We are are one of few eastern U.S. Nursery companies granted certificafion to ship certain plants to California. More inspection is required and disease/pest free grounds are manditory but given our general practices, it's not a problem for us. Despite the ridicule we receive on this particular site, other notable sites such as "Google Checkout" and Customer Lobby reviews seem quite contradictory. Google customers give us 4.3 of 5 stars and CL is around 85% in satified customers. The dissatisfaction always comes when a tree dies, not based on the quality when received. Yet that's nature, growing practices or circumstances beyond our control. But at least these are actual customers that we can varify.....not anonymous posts by competitors or the 0.001% that could never be satisfied or have unreasonable expectations. Or posts about things that aren't even relevant to ones purchase. These thing should make intelligent readers question the validity of such a site as Dave's 'Dog Somebody' Garden. Take away the anonymity and our reviews would be in line with the other review sites I mention, which require such disclosure. " |

I had to plant them in the rain as soon as I got them, and the next day it began snowing and didnt stop until march. as of april 27, all of my regular trees plus one fruit tree I bought elsewhere all have green on them. all my willis orchard trees are now again either dead or they claim are in a shock dormancy stage. they said since these are replacements they will not replace them again. 300$ down the tubes. take my advice. go to your local nursery, talk to them about the trees you want and pay the extra few bucks. you bring home a live tree that stays alive.

Some of the plants lived but the three kinds of brown and black fig trees all turned out to be the yellow Celeste fig trees that could be bought at any flea market. The exaggerated claims of delicious bananas to eat from growing your own banana trees were laughable and unjustified since the banana trees have done nothing but sit there taking up a weedy space in my garden. From now on I will buy my plants from Lowes or Home Depot where the trees can be seen and the varieties advertised can be trusted to be the right variety not just a grab bag of disreputable mongrel trees that should have never been sold. |

Willis did not inform me on the telephone that they were mailing out plants that were too late to plant in my area which they should have known. I thought since we had such a cold winter in New York that Willis Orchard would not send me grape vines, blueberry bushes and cherry trees that had crisp, shriveled-brown leaves on them when I opened the box. Cherry trees and apple trees dont leave- out in New York till April or May and I expected that certainly Willis Orchard would send me dormant fruit trees and seedless grapevines without sprouted runners pitifully dried out in the package. I plan to ship back all these trees for a full refund because waiting a year to nurse such horrible stock frankly means Willis Orchard is not on my agenda to consider for future ordering. |
