How To Plant And Care For Ornamental Grasses
I ordered three of the gallon sized pink muhly grass. Within days I received an email that they no longer had the gallon size. So what did they do? The sent me six of the next size down. The plants arrived in great shape and are growing well along the foundation of my house. There was a problem and they solved it. Love this company. Will be buying from them again.
Packaged very well! Shipped quickly! Plants are doing good. Would order again from the company.
My plants are super nice. Shipped safely!
Nice healthy plants that must have tasted good because my dogs ate both of them?!
The grasses are lovely and I am so happy.
Thank you Kara!
This grass is super healthy and I am just looking forward to the pink. It really is a pretty statement piece in my garden...
The delivery was as promised. All was in good shape. They are in the ground and growing. No complaints......only accolades!
All the plants came in excellent condition and were a nice size. I could not find these plants at any of my local nurseries. Shipment was very fast and with tracking info available. Can't wait to see these plants take off and grow. Very good experience with this company and I will definitely be placing more orders,
This was my first time ordering from ToGoGarden.com. Great product , fast shipping. I would certainly recommend to a friend, and will order again.
