GBFirst & LAST Time Customer Ordered three varieties of hostas and an orchid frost ground cover - two of the four plants arrived in acceptable condition, if overpriced for the size. Immediately reached out to customer service with photos and was told that the plants have a 90 day guarantee so to follow up with them later. First and LAST time I patron this site. Back to thetreecenter.com for me - not sure why I didn’t just stick with them, I’ve always been very pleased with their plants.

GBBought several roses last spring..they died Bought several roses last spring. Two climbing roses in pots survived the winter and took off this spring. 6 roses in ground struggled the entire season last year, had some growth, overwintered and show no signs of life this spring. Contacted them about this and they said they said not covered. They didn't try to make anything right, store credit..nothing. I told them I will not be purchasing anything with them going forward and just buy from companies I've done and doing business with who have a 1 year guarantee. Overwintering is the test for new plants. A lot of online garden centers understand this. Jackson and Perkins does not.

GBWrong shipped plants Wrong shipped plants. Don’t expect the plants you bought to be what you get. Absolutely horrible. We spent $547 with them, I grew up with Jackson&Perkin roses lining my yard. I was so excited to finally have some of my own. Once the plants bloomed we discovered over HALF of the items we bought were wrong. We emailed customer service and advised our disappointment; examples: - white peonies bloomed instead of pink sorbets - a yellow rose bloomed instead of lavender - a white rose bloomed instead of the Malibu - yellow and purple iris bloomed instead of dark purple Customer service said it wasn’t their issue since the guarantee had passed…but flowers take time to bloom how was I to know what color they’d be?! It’s been over a year and the flowers have either died or are still blooming the wrong colors. Dreams shattered and will never ever use them again. I asked to be removed from catalogs, shocked at how they treat customers

GBi ordered bare root roses and planted… i ordered bare root roses and planted as instruction and watered as instructed stems turned blacj=k and they never leafed out. i have emailed them mult times with no response. how can a company with the highest prices anywhere not afford to staff a live person hone, esp in the summer months when cliients will redictly have problemsa/ very unimpressed as they boast of impeccable customer service. its like a compay who sells only christmas merchandise shutting down their phones in nov and dec. 50 years ago jackson and erkins didnt have much competition , not so much any more, wake up j and p

GBI don't like being dictated to about… I don't like being dictated to about when my roses are going to show up. I have a greenhouse. March is almost over. I also work closely with Hocking Tech graduates who are Horticulturalists and Arborists. Yet I am being TOLD I can't have my purchased rose before "their folks" are ready to send it out. That is garbage. I buy something, you should be transparent upfront that a person has to wait. I find it funny a company who lives at least one zone lower than me is telling me, based on some arbitrary chart that was updated this year to reflect global warming changes that I am not worthy of getting my roses. The date listed is arbitrary as I have reached out NUMEROUS times to obtain delivery in the last month... they sent one, but the other I am not to be trusted with. Edmunds or local for 1/4 the price is where I go from now on considering I need about 50 more rose bushes. Way to lose future sales.
