GBDishonest I placed an order for fall plants, and didn't hear back about shipping for a while. I emailed asking if I could cancel because it was getting late in the season, then that lit a fire under them because they printed the label a few hours later and then responded right after said label was printed to say sorry, it can't be canceled because the label was already printed for shipping. That's just dishonest. I won't be using them again.

GBNever again.. Never again... I placed 3 orders over a period of 3 weeks, total about $600. Receive only one of 3 correctly. One order was packaged well, but 2 plants were the wrong thing entirely. Another order was lost in the mail. The "lost" shipment did finally arrive 20 days later. The box had no indication of which side was up. The plants were stuffed into a flat and they had been tossed, dirt everywhere. I called 3 separate times (45 mins-disconnected, 1hr, 10 mins - need to wait 10 days after shipment before they are willing to help, 1 hr 38 mins - agreed to replace lost and incorrect plants). The lost order once again came on a flat with plants tossed, dirt everywhere, some are on life support and shipment only took 3 days to get here. The replacement plants arrived alive and well and well packaged. So, the do know how to ship plants, just choose to do it poorly for large orders. For a premium price, you'd think they would care that the plants actually arrive alive and well. Nurseries usually care about plants, but based on my experience they do not.

GBCalled to check on original order Called to check on original order. Advised was probably lost in the mail. I was sent a replacement order which arrived today. Plant pots were tossed into shipping box with no packing so all the plants were out of pots and damaged. Quality of the plant is poor, scraggly. The initial order was also delivered today. Those plants had been nicely packed but after being in the mail for so long were dried out and in terrible shape. Good Bye forever American Meadows.

GBTerrible service They pack their plants with out any protection. I order 16 plants of coneflowers and they shipped with a large hairnet covering the the tray of plants. Just about all the plants were tossed about, dirt everywhere. Roots of the plant were exposed and very dry soil. I will never order from American meadows again.

GB"Shipped" but never showed up Placed two orders from American Meadows on 20 March 2024, and they stated the ship week was 8 April. Everything was going as planned when one order "shipped" 8 April and the other "shipped" 10 April. However, all they did was print the shipping label, and the tracking with USPS still has not updated from this status. I called twice and was told the first time the warehouse dropped off the first order with USPS on 8 April. I asked for proof and they said they had none. I was told to just wait. The second time I called it was after both orders had not changed status for at least three days. The second person did not even ask for an order number, my name, or anything. They just stated "this has been happening a lot", though every other vendor I ordered from and who shipped through USPS recently has been fine. I emailed them yesterday and am awaiting a response, though do not think that will solve anything. They said they have a 10-day policy after "shipping" before cancelling, though I cannot find evidence of this anywhere on their website or in their emails. This company feels scammy to me and poorly-run. I should have read the other reviews before ordering from them.
