Comments regarding The Tree Center

The tree arrived, but my landscaper refused to plant the tree cause it was in such bad shape and stated it would not survive. My landscaper stated that the tree was removed without a good base to grow from. The root system was not big/strong enough to be able to survive a transplant, and felt it would not make it....so.....I took it down to my friend who works at the Wichita, Ks Botanical Gardens and she said the landscaper was correct, so she now has it, she transplanted it into a larger pot and put it in her solarium to grow for another year to get the roots bigger for a better transplant.

The tree i ordered is an Orangeola Japanese Maple. My friend who is taking care of it, raises Koi for the Wichita Gardens, helps with the growth of the Austrialian water lillies throughout their ponds, and raises and propagates Orchids for them. Her landscaping in her own yard is that of the Orient, so she is specialized in what is needed for these type of trees/plants.
I'm disappointed that i paid extra for insurance if it didn't survive, and the professionals here knew instantly it would not have survived...

Ordered thousands of dollars worth of shrubs Some arrived healthy and some did not. Over $1000 worth of hydrangeas with intensely drooping leaves and black spots. Emailed company and provided them with many photos. Also purchased their extra cost one year warranty protection. They claimed the shrubs were in "shock" and to just give them water and sunlight. After several days of giving them much TLC, they only got worse. They refused to replace them or to issue a refund. I had to purchase another $1000 worth of shrubs elsewhere and these are going to the dump. They do not back up their merchandise. If you're lucky, you'll get healthy plants. But if you are not, you have just flushed your money down the hopper. I'm suing them.
