Comments regarding eFlowerGarden

In the past I participated in various co-ops with products supplied by Bert and Ingrid and have never been disappointed. The tulips and lilies are absolutely beautiful. I gave several tulips to my sister and this spring she texted me "Tulips are the talk of the town!" Excellect products. Look forward to purchasing more.

People marvel over my lilies daily....they are just so beautiful, the co-op I took part in was fabulous, the bulbs were massive and just as fresh as if I had dug them myself the same day!!!! I would never hesitate to do business with Bert....he answered every question immediately too, a rare thing in today's business world.....Deb

I have placed orders from eFlowerGarden before it changed to it's current "Coop" format, and was generally satisfied. This is the first time I have tried to place an order through their "Coop." I am not pleased. The system is cumbersome and not customer friendly. One must cut and paste items into a comment section as well as type additional information for each item. I had registered, logged in and spent almost 2 hours putting together an order from what is really not that extensive of a selection. The prices, while good, are not exceptional. One can find better "deals" if one shops around. I only finished the order because once I started, I felt that too much effort had been made to quit. In the end, when I submitted my order, I received an "error." In the blink of an eye, all my effort was lost to cyberspace. No way would I put forth energy again for what I think is so little potential reward. My problem is with their online system and not with their quality of product or service, so I will give them a neutral rather than a negative. For those willing to put forth such effort merely to place an order, go for it! I will not.

When we went "live" with the present Co-op, we were not aware of any problems. Then when the first emails came in making us aware of a "problem when submitting the order" I needed to contact the IT person who was flying at that time from New York to Atlanta. In the meantime, I also got an email from above customer advising us of the frustration they had to go through and understandebly so. I answered the email that we were looking into it what might cause the trouble and asked her to please give us time to find the problem and correct it. In the meantime we got this "neutral" remark on our report card, which is fine, but we felt it needed an explanation.

The problem was (we were unaware of this) that there was a 10 minute timing out in the code. We have changed that in the meantime to 60 minutes. So far it is working fine.

As far as cut and paste, this is merely a suggestion for people who do not want to type in the items to purchase.

We value the opinion of the members and will try to do our best to make changes if needed, specially when there is a flaw in a system, but we also expect the same courtesy back to allow us time to correct it. And while we try to do our best for all members, it is very well possible that we can not please all of the people all of the time.

Happy Gardening.

Bert"

This week I received my order of lily bulbs. They are packaged great and I am very pleased with the size of the bulbs. The attention to detail is excellent...I am excited about getting more plant products from Bert and Ingrid.

Received a box of Lily and Glad bulbs. These were packed very nicely for shipping and were some of the nicest looking bulbs I've ever received.
I'm always pleased with the service, quality and prices I get from this company. Order with confidence.

Just received beautiful bulbs AS USUAL and will be ordering whatever they have to offer.

I just received my hosta from the Spring Fever Hosta Co-op hosted by Notmartha (Dori). They are beautiful, healthy and fresh. All were very nicely packed with the roots and moist soil tightly wrapped in plastic and clearly labeled. All were laying sandwiched between two layers of lightweight packing peanuts and had absolutely no damaged leaves. I'm very pleased with my plants and the great care that has obviously gone into growing, packing and shipping them. Will definitely be a return customer--co-op or not=D

I've had great transactions with Bert since my first purchase in 2002 when I bought my house. Hostas, daylilies, and the latest purchase of 60+ lilies that looked fresh and wonderful. Shipping is fair - overall, a good person and the type you'd like to do business and support.

This nursery fully deserves its spot in the top 30. The prices were so low that I didn't expect to get plants of such high quality. The daylilies were especially impressive. The two bonus canna plants were a wonderful addition to the package.

I have received several orders from eflowergarden and they gave always been top notch. My most recent order of daylilies are perfect. Would highly recommend this company. :)

beautiful bulbs & hosta bareroot were delivered the other day.. what an easy and fast transaction ... with great customer service... quick to get a response from any questions asked... will buy again from them again in the future

I just received my second gladiolus order in three years. Don't know why I didn't order last year. Everything has always come as marked, and the glads are just beautiful. Don't hesitate to order from these folks, and don't let the low prices scare you off! This is definitely one of those situations where you don't get what you pay for, if you know what I mean!

Excellent bulb quality and service as always. Great prices. Thanks a lot Bert!

Another order, another wonderful experience. Having ordered lilies and glads from eflowergarden in years past, I can attest to the quality of their bulbs. Prices are exellent and communication is A+. Bert and Ingrid care and it shows. I have and will continue to recommend them to others.

Fabulous bulbs! Great price. Thanks

I received my order of lilies and gladiolus today. They are well packed and appear to be in good shape. The price is extremely good and I definitely look forward to ordering from them again.

Just received my Lily order from Bert and Ingrid. All bulbs were perfectly packed, the size they stated and healthy and all for a good price ... Can't do better than eflowergardens!

Wow! I wish I had found eflowergarden earlier! I orderd three lemon-lime amaryllis las week. Unfortunately (my fautl) they only had two left, but I received a phone call immediatly asking if I wanted a substitute or a refund. I indicated one other bulb, but since I was not at home, didn't know if it was already out of stock. I received an email later in the day indicating the 'sub' had been sold out.
The bulbs arrived very very quickly and they are enormous! I am absolutely thrilled wiht the price, quality, and customer service.
I am only disappointed that I didn't find them earlier. They are on my ++++ list now!

I have ordered large numbers of bulbs from this company. The communications and service are excellent. The bulbs are quite large and healthy. The prices are very competitive. The bulbs are shipped at the appropriate times. Everyone should look to this company for their bulb choices.

I received my two large, lovely amaryllis bulbs and can't wait to enjoy the blooms! Thanks, Ingrid, you are such a sweetie!

Ordered four amaryllis bulbs. They arrived promptly and in excellent condition. The bulbs are large, as advertised. Very nice. Thank you!

I have ordered from this company several times and the condition, packing and service of everything that I have ordered is first rate. I wished I had found them years before. My spring lily order has just arrived and they are all fat and happy. I have some tender plants on order for later in the spring and I am sure they will be excellent too. Patti

Rec'd coop order in this week and it was supurb ... as always. You get well, packaged, well labeled, and nice sized bulbs everytime ! Thanks again for allowing us to do another great coop !

Bert & Ingrid,are the most wonderful,loving people.....I can't even put into words how great!Will never hesitate to order from eFlowerGarden.And don't you!!!! You will never lose.Great communication and they care that Your needs are met.

ordered bulbs and hosta's from the co-ops (2008). was pleased with both my orders. Great prices, packaging, and communication.

I ordered some bulbs at the end of the season last fall and was impressed with the speed of their shipment, as well as the quality and size of the bulbs. I checked this afternoon and the "noses" are up :-). I will definitely order from them again, they are nice folks to deal with.

I have to say that eflowergarden has not failed to deliver quality bulbs even at an end of the season sale. Very good communication from Bert and Ingrid. I have ordered Allium, Daffodils, Muscari, Hyacinth, Tulips, Lilies, and Iris both directly and through group purchases and all have been a terrific value. I would definitely order from them again and I would recommend them to anyone looking for good value bulbs and Rhizomes.

Huge bulbs, corms, what ever you buy is big and healthy. Great customer service, some of the best i've ever seen!!
Have bought from this company several times, highly recomended!!!!!

I have ordered from this company several times and have always been pleased with my orders. They have a great product and a great price!!

I have ordered from this company 2-3 times and have been greatly pleased each time. Shipped promptly and great product.
Will definitely buy from them again.

Bought 80-90 bulbs - alliums - three different varieties in last co-op notMartha hosted - The quality, condition and size and price were all excellent! They arrived on time!

Great co-op hosted by Dori with this vendor. I received large bulbs along with the planting instructions. A class act that can't be beat. Will definitely do business with eflowergarden again. Thanks!

I ordered iris and they arrived promptly and well packaged. The iris were an excellent size and quality. Looking forward to doing business with them again.

I ordered small iris corms, they were reasonably priced, they
arrived quickly and they were a nice size . Labeled
and bagged well. They arrived in great condition and I cannot wait for their future bloooms. Great deal!

I'm glad some are happy I wish that I'd just gave the money to the homeless my order was terrible dry up rz's with rot and mold they have been out of the ground way too long I've still got a dozen rz's that I dug two months ago down in my hot garage that are in way better shape. Saying I'm not happy is a understatement I wouldn't give rz's in this shape away let alone sell them my "throw away's" are better, definitely lost my business or any sort of recommendation to any one else.

I had ordered white daffodills last fall but by the time they got to my order, all the ones I wanted were gone. My fault as I ordered late. They contacted me and sent me bulbs that were a bit small but close to what I had originally wanted for my white gargen. I was very impressed as they did not charge me anything. This spring I had some nice white daffodills to enjoy. This fall, I will order much earlier to get what I want and it will be thru this company.

We placed an order for daylilies and couple of hostas with eflowergarden. The daylilies were nice size single fans one of them was double fan, all with good root system. The plants were well packed and labelled. We potted them up and now couple of them are already sending out scapes. The hostas had alteast 2 or more eyes. They all survived. The price is good . We will recommend to anyone who want to buy good plants for less price.

OH MY the Nicest, Biggest, most reasonable prices! I don't know how they do it but I will look here before I buy anything anywhere else!
I can't wait to order my fall bulbs from here!! Wonderful shipping. Everything was packed and labeled beautifully with great guides for planting and information on each package about the varieties color, bloom, height, etc.. I wish you had a "Positive Plus" grading..eFlower would get it from ME!
