My 4 azaleas arrived in good shape. The price was also very reasonable. Plants are now happily settled in and growing. Would order again from this site
This bush has really impressed me. It is planted in the hottest spot around the building, getting most of the days heat. It's as beautiful now as it was a year ago when I planted it. Preforms as promised.
Azaleas were well packaged, received in a timely manner, and were even flowering when I took them out of the packaging.
I was so pleased with my purchase (despite transplant, in just a few weeks both azaleas were blooming!) that I just purchased 2 additional azaleas from your site. These were shipped and packed well!
These azaleas have such a beautiful flower. I cannot wait till they are fully grown and are in full bloom.
I'VE BEEN WAITING A YEAR FOR THIS AZALEA. THERE AREN'T BIG ONES AVAILABLE YET, BUT I'M PATIENT ENOUGH TO WAIT FOR THESE TO GROW.
