I was very pleased to have the lillies arrive in excellent condition 9 days prior to my vacation. They were also a much larger plant than I anticipated. |

I called Paradise to cancel one order but they said that the only way to cancel was to refuse delivery which was impossible since I was not going to be home. Needless to say when I returned from my trip the plants were not in very good shape and many did not survive. Paradise promptly gave me credit for the plants that did not survive. |

My order was shipped just as I was told it would be and I would highly recommend Paradise Garden to every one. Some of my irises had 12-13 fans. Unbelievable, simply unbelievable. |

I looked at the Oakes webpage and I could have ordered the same plants and saved about $3-4 for each plant. Next time I'll shop around more on the web but everyone should in order to avoid paying more than you need to. Live and learn though. |

The plants arrived on time and were perfectly packaged. The later blooms were just beautiful. I will continue to order from this great company in the future. |

They've already produced several blooms for me this year. What an unexpected surprise. Thanks, I look forward to more great gardening buys. |

| Positive | hockeymum (1 review) | On Aug 20, 2003, hockeymum wrote: I have recently ordered from Paradise Garden for the first time. I ordered iris bulbs. I was very pleased and shocked at the timing of the delivery and the quality. Both were excellent. I received my order with plenty of time to plant and establish before snowfall. This was by far the best service I've ever received. The bulbs were the largest and healthiest by comparison. The web site is also one of the best. I spent hours on it. The selection was the largest I have ever seen for iris's. The packaging was of quality standard and ensured the plants were not damaged in any way. Cudos to Pardise! |

I received another package from another vendor and am sending back to reorder from Paradise Garden--the other vendor does not even compare! Thanks--cant wait to order again--and to show off my iris in the spring!! Mary |
| Positive | gymthing (8 reviews) | On Aug 18, 2003, gymthing Falmouth, ME wrote: I received 5 daylilies from Paradise Garden. They were from 3 different suppliers. I received all of them well packed and all had exceptional root systems. One I received within 4-5 days of placing my order. I planted it (even though it's flowering season had past) and in a couple of weeks the foliage had grown 5 inches. At this point I am very pleased with my purchase. Can't wait to see the flowers next Spring. |

They are full-sized, well rooted and lush. They do well in my garden. I appreciate earning seed points and adding feedback to the items. All around great company. |
| Positive | gwendylena (26 reviews) | On Aug 15, 2003, gwendylena La Salle, MI wrote: I ordered two daylilies from Paradise Garden this July. I was extremely impressed with the speed that they arrived at my house and also with the size and quality of the roots I received. After a few days they were growing rapidly, even though July is not the greatest time to plant in Michigan. I ordered three more in mid-August and my order came even faster that time and the roots were in excellent shape. Both times they sent me a bonus daylily even though I only ordered a small number of plants. I am eagerly anticipating their blooms next year. I know that they will be beautiful because the roots were so healthy and large. I will definately continue to do business with Paradise Gardens in the future. I only wish that my yard were larger so that I could plant many more of their lilies!!! On June 21st, 2004, gwendylena added the following: This summer I am even more happy with this company than I was last summer. I went on and ordered a few more daylilies and several peonies and one tree peony. Everything I ordered last year is doing great this year with one exception. The tree peony simply failed to thrive. I received an answer to my email complaint within a few hours and they are sending a replacement this fall. No hassles. |
| Positive | wygrowsit (4 reviews) | On Aug 15, 2003, wygrowsit Nashville, TN (Zone 6b) wrote: I just received iris that I ordered from Paradise Garden. Not only did I receive those I ordered, with one very nice substitute, but 4 gift iris! I was able to find pictures of all of them but one, and did find a good description of it as well. Very large size plants, except one was tiny but healthy. Can't complain when they send me almost as many as I ordered for free! I have ordered daylilies from Paradise Garden in the past and have always received large healthy plants that bloom the first year. They even replaced some I ordered as a gift for my mother when she planted them incorrectly! A little pricy on some things, but the plants are usually larger than some mailorder send and good variety. Their web site is easy to use and excellent images. A great company to do business with. I have never been disappointed. I am looking forward to receiving the peonies that I ordered. |
| Positive | nirow (1 review) | On Aug 15, 2003, nirow Cincinnati, OH wrote: I ordered 3 fans of iris and I received 3 bonus fans. Extremely happy with the packaging and the quality of the plants out the box. I do echo another comment about perhaps indicating the color of the anticipated flower to help with planting location. All in all, well satisfied, and assuming the plants thrive, I will order again because the service has been excellent. |

| Positive | SHRUBBY (2 reviews) | On Aug 13, 2003, SHRUBBY wrote: I placed an order for 10 day lilies and they arrived when they were supposed to, Aug 8th. I also got two bonus lilies. The plants were clean and disease free. The roots were plump and dormant, not dry at all. The fans were actually much larger than other mail orders I have done. They were all clearly marked, though I wish the tags would all have had color descriptions for easier planting. I am very glad it has worked so well because my initial run through their stock generated a several thousand dollar order and I wanted my test order to be good. I am already planning my next order. |

I received a larger quantity than I ordered....which helped me feel better about the cost per item. The plants look gorgeous and are very large. The package was superbly packed. Complete care instructions were included. |

The plants were packaged exquisitely, arriving with healthy roots and leaves. Although I waited a few days longer than I should have to plant them, they are all showing immediate growth. Thanks, Paradise Garden! |
| Positive | VeeCee (1 review) | On Jul 20, 2003, VeeCee Orleans, MA wrote: My hostas were shipped from two different suppliers. The first bunch came soon (MI), beautiful big healthy plants in 6" pots. Although the box was crunched, the plants were well-packed & in great condition. The second set (MO) were shipped bare-root. I have never seen two plants more carefully hand-packed. They were also in terrific shape. Obviously two different styles, but both work. In addition, the web site is easy to use and informative. I printed off the pages of the hostas I ordered, to keep for future reference. Highly recommended. |

| Positive | CarolMartin (1 review) | On Jul 16, 2003, CarolMartin wrote: Very easy ordering online, with excellent photographs and good way to catalog my"designer Daylillies". That in itself was impressive, that was until I received my first shipment. And boy what a Prize....the quality cannot be matched. The clumps are 3 beautiful fans that look like stalks of celery. And the healthiest I have ever seen! Thanks Paradise Garden. Sincerely, Carol Eugene Martin, order ID 9FFFCEA761 |
| Positive | colettw (1 review) | On Jul 13, 2003, colettw wrote: 2 out of 3 isn't bad. I ordered a "burning bush," a Krossa Regal hosta as well as a Blue Angel hosta. The roots on all three appear to be healthy and the general looks of the bush and Krossa Regal were very good. However, of the 3 leaves and one bud on the Blue Angel only one leaf remains.The bud or stem was broken off on arrival, one leaf was quite brown and spoiled and the largest was broken and looked as though someone had used a paper hole punch in two places. |

In fact, even though the site stated that each plant would contain 2 fans there were at least 3 or 4 large fans per plant. I look forward to seeing how these plants do in my garden and will report again. I am sure that I will be ordering more plants from Paradise Garden. |

The plants are HUGE and so clean and healthy, and they sent additional FREE ones too! I could hardly believe it when I opened the package. Everything was so well packed in layers of excelsior and all labeled so nicely. I live on an island and don't get to shop except via internet very often so I am THRILLED to find such a wonderful plant supplier. I'm going to order again and again!!! |

That's FAST SURVICE when it comes to most mail order companies! |

On June 28th, 2004, pembrokes added the following: This is third year I ordered (2004) and still wonderful service and plants. This year I even ordered perennials other than daylilies. |

The plant was very well-packaged and in excellent shape. There was not a broken twig or brown leaf to be seen and the pot it was shipped in had plenty of moist soil left. I just popped it into my garden last week and so far so good, even though early July is not the best time to transplant these, it is doing just fine. On June 8th, 2004, paula19631 added the following: On June 10th, 2004, paula19631 added the following: I ordered the Buddleia 'Ellen's Blue" on May 5 and it was planted by May 13. Shrub was in pristine condition--not a broken or bent twig, all leaves were green and healthy and it looks like it is holding its own during the hot and humid weather. I think the prices I pay are very reasonable for the size plants I get. I'm used to much smaller plants from the other companies I order from and I appreciate that anything I order from PG has an immediate and noticable impact in my garden. I recommend this site to all my gardening friends without hesitation! |

When they arrived, they were very large for delivery plants, and very healthy. They also gave us 2 free irises, which was very nice considering that that was $15 free. A very good company. |
| Positive | Philly (19 reviews) | On Jun 19, 2003, Philly Philadelphia, PA wrote: After a search on the internet turned up very few places that had the plants I was looking for, I came across Paradise. I noticed that their plants seemed to be what I was looking for. I do not mind paying a few more bucks and getting a LARGE and HEALTHY shrub(hardy hibiscus) that is starting to bud. Not a twig in a 3" pot. Packaging was excellent as well as quick. I will be sure to visit them again. |
