Happy in its new home
Quick shipment arrived promptly still bearing green leaves. Temperatures below freezing next two nights watered as instructed and planting tomorrow and tubing. Have already ordered other species
I had previously ordered these earlier in the season. The plants were in neither good nor bad condition. My late-season order looked fantastic, they were in great condition. I promise to leave some for others next year!! :)
The plants were in OK condition. There was substantial browning of leaves. It was clear the shipping had done a number on them, possibly declining before shipment. Either way, all got in the ground quickly and 3 of 5 still have some green leaves after being in the ground for a couple of weeks. I think all will be fine this time next year.
Excellent packing, healthy tree and arrived early.
I was so excited to see the dwarf chinquapin oak back in stock and jumped at the chance to purchase. The tree that arrived was sturdy, healthy, and well packaged. I would definitely buy from Mail Order Natives again!
The saplings arrived quickly and were well packaged. There were no broken branches or stems. The root systems were very healthy for their size and the planting medium was moist. The saplings themselves were in great condition, the buds were turgid and firm.
Arrived in great shape, nice size for the price, planted and doing well.
