Excellent!!

Happy to find a fairly local nursery/garden center with great quality plants. Pictured are my two common lilacs received very well protected in their shipping container. They are thriving and I can't wait to enjoy the beautiful blooms and fragrance that remind me of mom's favorite. Customer service was also excellent. I would not hesitate to order from them.

Plant arrived potted and looked beyond dormant. I planted it and can confirm it’s dead not dormant. Total waste of money.

The company reached out and we did confirm the plant was dead. They refunded me.
