Large plants with lots of vigor. The four from last year made it through a brutal winter here. We are zone 3a and after many months of cold, down to -40, the plants couldn't wait to come up this spring. Can't say enough about this company. |

Plants arrived still moist with masses of vigorous healthy growth. and spectacular long roots. The planting information included could not be clearer. If only other mail order nurseries could be half as conscientious. Couldn't be happier. |

With a wide variety of Clematis, they are all categorized, making it easy to know which plant is suitable for you and your region. I was very pleased to receive my package hassel free within two days, (nothing like 'White Flower Farm' and 'The Tree Center' weeks...). My two Clematis were well packed and healthy. They also came with planting instructions. I plan to purchase from here in the future. Christine |

I only ordered 5 plants from them, but when I opened the boxes, I wished I had ordered more! Next spring I'm going buck wild when it's time to order from them again! Thanks for the awesome plants! |

The price was reasonable so I ordered two. The plants arrived promptly and are among the best-packaged plants I have ever received. There was no damage at all, and they look very healthy. Thank you. Now I wish I had space for more clematis! |
Positive | floria (27 reviews) | On May 6, 2019, floria Athens, GA (Zone 8a) wrote: First time ordering, 6 plants. Very pleasant experience. The plants looked great upon arrival and have grown sturdily ever since. One plant's stem was broken in transit (Candida). Cindy insisted that I let her know about its progress or lack thereof. I followed Cindy's advice and the plant has not missed a beat. It has already pushed 3 stems from the ground and is growing on a par with the others. |

Excellent instructions included, and their website is great also, and Cindy is a crack-up. (that's good) : ) |
Positive | GraniteGardener (1 review) | On Jul 1, 2018, GraniteGardener Gorham, NH wrote: The website was well organized, easy to navigate and full of very helpful information on all of the many different varieties of clematis they grow. My order came beautifully/safely packaged (w/ paper not plastic peanuts - thank you) and the clematis was in perfect shape - healthy roots, in good soil w/ health, multi-stemmed vine. Following Cindy's great planting instructions - I'm sure this clematis will thrive. I'll definitely be recommending Hummingbird Farm to anyone looking for a healthy, well grown clematis. Thank you Cindy. |
Positive | rachelrapunzel (3 reviews) | On Jun 28, 2018, rachelrapunzel Rugby, ND wrote: I was so pleased with everything about ordering from Hummingbird Farm! I purchased 4 clematis from them. 'Madame Edouard Andre', 'Ernest Markham', 'Madame Baron-Veillard' and 'Jackmanii Rubra'. I was extremely happy with the plants they shipped me. Packaged well. Full planting / care instructions included. I had a feeling when I opened everything up that I can only describe as I had been sent some very special plants from an old friend. I was over the moon about the root systems! Healthy strong roots but not a single strand was root-bound. They were perfect! I even loved the soil they came in. I also liked how the plant markers were taped securely. No chance of them getting jumbled in shipping. All around great experience. |

They always arrived nicely packed and the plants were always big, very healthy looking and beautiful! I really don't want to buy clematis from anywhere else any more. It's also easy to contact them, I always get a prompt response. Wonderful experiences! |

Positive | cab223 (1 review) | On Oct 5, 2017, cab223 Bay Village, OH wrote: The clematis that I wanted was "sold out", but there is a "TOP SECRET" message on the website that there might be a couple left. I called and spoke with Cindy (the owner), who had 2 available! I ordered both, and they arrived promptly, very well packaged, and with instructions for planting. Both are thriving. The service was exceptional, the plants healthy, and this customer is thrilled! |
Positive | maperist (1 review) | On Sep 17, 2017, maperist Tracys Landing, MD wrote: I ordered 2 Clematis and they arrived very quickly. These were the best looking plants I have ever purchased. There are 2 local nurseries who are also growers. Their plants are not as good as these. The packaging was superb and the plants were quite healthy. I was especially impressed with the root balls. They seemed quite natural - not highly compacted like most plants from nurseries. The instructions were very clear. One very tiny complaint - the plant tag for one of them was brittle and broke. The other was fine. |

They look healthy, with nice green leaves and a large root system. They are barely wilted! The packaging is great. Plastic wrapped root with soil, a 'tent' of cardboard protecting the tops. |

Positive | Contutti (5 reviews) | On May 29, 2017, Contutti York, ME wrote: Cindy's web site is a delight- full of useful clematis care information and helpful descriptions of all the clematis she grows. I ordered and received in excellent condition this spring two clematis. They both have settled well in my garden. My friend and I live close enough to visit Cindy's greenhouses in Turner, Maine and had a delightful time. Not only did we choose some clematis, but also found some hard to find and never seen by us her well grown " Vancouver Centennial" stellar geraniums( among others), lovely "blue Angel" salvia, unusual sedums ( one blue- grey one that looks like a bridal bouquet with it's tiny florets suspended on stems above the plant). All that I brought home were well rooted but not in the least over rooted.Cindy and her 2 dogs and 2 cats were very welcoming. This was such a fun place to visit- but be sure to check her hours before going. |

I received email letting me know when the plants would arrive and with tracking numbers. The plants arrived on time, and in excellent condition. The root balls on the plants were of good size, top growth showed no sign of damage or disease. I purchased 5 Clematis from Hummingbird Farm and highly recommend them. |

The plants are healthy with an extensive root system. I followed the very precise planting directions which are online and also packaged with the plants. Now, I will anxiously watch and wait. This was a great online ordering experience! |

I already have three thriving clematis that I have bought from Hummingbird Farm in previous years. Their handling of orders is outstanding and their web site is extremely helpful. |
Positive | JenVT (1 review) | On May 7, 2016, JenVT Saxtons River, VT wrote: Before I placed my order, Cindy answered questions promptly and helpfully. She was accommodating about rescheduling my shipment because of some travel plans, and she shipped them to arrive exactly when I needed them. I ordered three French sorrel plants, and they arrived carefully packaged and looking quite happy and perky. They were nice-sized plants with plenty of shoots and should do very well in the garden. I would definitely order from Hummingbird Farm again. |

Positive | GardenRanger (5 reviews) | On May 6, 2016, GardenRanger Lynchburg, VA wrote: Ordered and received 3 well packaged plants from this vendor. Great variety, one plant I've been searching for over the past two years. Plants are a healthy, well grown size. No damage in transit. Cindy was most accommodating in that I needed them quickly following my order. An unexpected business trip arose. I was able to plant before an involved two weeks away. Appreciate a vendor who is responsive. We shall be ordering from her again. Her horticultural advice is on point regarding best practice with clematis. Solid experience with this vendor. |

Wanting flowers, I happened on Hummingbird Farms website, and emailed Cindy with lots of questions. She was so helpful and helped me pick the perfect match for me. Not only are the blooms beautiful, but it's super hardy for my zone. Elsa Spath Clematis make my deck look elegant, my little oasis! Thank YOU Cindy & the Hummingbird Farm! |

Received 4 clematis, definitely one of the best packaged, labeled, and priced for quality clematis. Both the size of the roots and the volume of green leafage surpassed my other internet/mail orders. I ordered 4 of the Kivistik assuming the Arctic Circle is colder than Central Illinois, so hope that they do well on the north side of the house. |
Positive | remster (1 review) | On May 22, 2015, remster Liberty Lake, WA wrote: I ordered 2 clematis exactly one year ago, in May 2014. Before ordering I had specific questions about certain varieties - the staff was very knowledgeable and helpful. The plants arrived promptly, very well packed, with clear planting instructions. Last fall both clematis were happy enough to bloom before sleeping for the winter. Now, one year after planting, both clematis put up lots of new shoots from the roots, are vigorously climbing their trellises, and have plenty of buds. Hummingbird Farms clearly offers great plants with healthy roots! |

I emailed them the end of April to find out when the plants were to ship and was told around May 4th. Then I received an email informing me they had shipped on the 4th with the tracking numbers along with care instructions if I wasn't going to plant right away. Today, May 7th the plants arrived in very good condition, good sized, amazing root systems! I am very pleased. This has been my best on-line plant purchase!!! |
