Got the shipment by priority mail on 6/1, plants were only in the mail for two days. That's about as fast as i've ever gotten any garden order, much less harvested portions of live plants in the peak of garden season over Memorial day weekend. and the plants look fine, much better than what i remember buying back when seed stores still sold sweet potato slips, so i'm sure they will all live and do just fine. so i'm happy and eagerly anticipating a bumper crop. |

Ended up ordering 12 Bush Porto Rico, 12 Georgia Jets, & 12 of my fallback variety Vardeman. They came in excellent shape with no losses this year. As always, extra slips were included in each bunch. Got too excited and planted my Bush Porto Rico slips too early and ended up with an extremely late frost which killed 5 of the 13, but had some extra Georgia Jets and vardeman to fill in the gaps. Will definitely continue to order my sweet potato slips from this company! |

There were also a batch of bonus Carolina Ruby plants - great. But they were dead. I've put them in water attempting to perk them up, but no luck so far. |

The plants were dry upon arrival. It took 5 days to get them from Tennessee to Central PA. I haven't had time to plant them yet, but I put them in water, and they perked up in a day. So far, I'm happy with George's! |

It is a little unhandy to have to mail in your order but the plants are really worth it. I will get plants there again with no questions. I would recomend to anybody. |

We had a small order, only 25 slips. Received 35. Planted them out that evening. 2 didn't make it. (it was in the upper 90's here when we planted them out, am frankly surprised any of them made it in these temps, it's been unbearable here) Leaving an overpack of 8 slips total that survived. 33% bonus! |

Positive | kitchengarden (6 reviews) | On May 10, 2009, kitchengarden Beltsville, MD wrote: My order of 125 sweet potato slips arrived this week, which was the week that I wanted. All 125 slips are in great shape and there is nothing slimy in the box. I asked for and received the correct amounts of Beauregard, Bunch Porto Rico, Japanese Red, and Vardaman. |
