Comments regarding White Flower Farm

Shipped my plant too late to be planted but refused to cancel and refund the order. May as well just throw it in the trash when it arrives and save myself the time and effort of planting it into freezing ground.

I have ordered a LOT of plants online but never received plants that were so well packed (the cardboard collar on each kept the soil from spilling out of the plants and into the packing box). Also the plants were all in fantastic condition...probably due to the wonderful packing. Nice and lush and green....didn't look like they had just been in a box for a couple of days.

They also stand behind their guarantee and replace any plant that doesn't make it.

I have ordered a lot from them and feel they are in my Top 3 online nurseries.

I ordered a Salvia and they shipped me a dead stick. It was not potted. It was bare root. All the branches had been cut off, and I literally received a dead 3" stick.

I e-mailed customer service, and never received a response.

"On Jun 10, 2025 7:56 AM, White Flower Farm responded with:

I'm so sorry to hear about the condition in which your Salvia arrived and even more disappointed to learn that you didn’t receive a reply to your previous message. That’s absolutely not the experience we want any of our customers to have.

We’d like to make this right for you. Please let us know if you'd prefer a replacement or a refund, and we’ll process it promptly.

Also, just to confirm our customer service email is custserv@whiteflowerfarm.com. If you reached out to a different address, that may explain why your message wasn’t received.

Thank you again for giving us the opportunity to resolve this, and we sincerely apologize for the inconvenience."

I ordered alpine strawberries. The plants arrived in good time and in good condition, especially as they are so fragile. They had early growth on each plant, and good roots.

My rating of "negative" is a bit misleading because my experience has been a MIXED BAG. I have been a WFF customer for 30 years. The tree peony from one of my earliest orders still produces huge beautiful blooms every spring. Over the years I have also consistently
appreciated their customer service reps and in-house horticulturist--quick responses to emails, no trouble with refunds, good advice. After a long break from gardening whenI did not order for many years, I decided to expand my garden about 5 years ago. I remembered WFF as a first rate vendor and began ordering plants. The quality of the stock Ive received has been alternately very good and very bad. And WHAT is going on with SHIPPING? Many plants have arrived dessicated--some are DOA. The tubers and bulbs are worst of all. Last fall I was sent Asiatic lilies instead of the Oriental lilies I ordered. The bulbs themselves were not great. And this spring's clumps of dahlia tubers have been spongy, withered, with the tubers hanging by fragile root threads from the stem. Customer service in all these instances have quickly responded with replacements and refunds. But I'll not be buying any more tubers or bulbs from WFF anytime soon.

We appreciate your longevity as a customer and your honest review. I am happy to hear the tree peony is still producing beautiful blooms each spring.

I just received my first order from White Flower Farm. I wanted some particular hostas and deutzias for fall planting, and this was the only reputable online seller who had both in stock. They sent it in two shipments, first a package of three Silly String hostas, which were smallish plants but with excellent root systems; I was pretty happy with them. Yesterday I received a package of three one gallon sized deutzia Cherry Blossom, which were very big healthy plants with very vigorous root systems- thrilled with them! After I initially placed my order, I read some recent reviews on this site that were not too positive, but I am absolutely satisfied with my order and will definitely order from WFF again!

I am a long time customer of White Flower Farm. This year I placed three orders in the springtime for a variety of shrubs, roses, perennials, and bulbs. I have only had good experiences with the quality of plants and packaging. I did have one hibiscus Edge of Night bareroot that did not come up and one dahlia tuber that had leafy gall. I simply reach out to their customer service and will always get a refund within a week for the damaged products. An example, in fall of 2020 I ordered 6 Strawberry Sundae hydrangeas. I was concerned about their size when they arrived as they appeared to be somewhat puny. I called WFF with my concerns and they assured me that they would honor their guarantee. I proceeded to plant the hydrangeas and give them a bit of tender care that fall. Three seasons later, I have all six bushes at maturity and producing blooms in great abundance. I wish that this review forum allowed for posting of photos so I could share my experience in picture form. Thank you for the quality of your plants. I am a very avid gardener and I have had a garden for the past 23 years that is 1.38 acres in size that is populated with a very large assortment of plants from White Flower Farm. I now await my fall order.

I have been an enthusiastic customer ofWhite Flower Farm for many years and in the past few years I have been disappointed more times than satisfied, with this last experience wrecking my faith completely.
I ordered some Peonies bare root and paid handsomely.
I was shocked to receive two pieces of hard wood about 5 inches long, with not one filament on them that could pass for a root!
I called the company and was told they would grow.
Nothing ever appeared, as we would expect.
I could not believe they would even send such things.
Shameful.
What has happened to this once great company?

Extremely poor packing. I have been a customer of WFF for years despite very high prices and shipping costs and mixed experiences. I ordered 2 plants. The plants were laid on their sides with nothing to keep the soil in the pots. Both were covered with dirt and one had fallen out and roots completely exposed. I was home when they arrived and potted up immediately and nursed but it did not survive. I contacted the company for a replacement but it is out of stock so they promptly refunded me the price of plant. On the same day I received 2 plants from Hummingbird farm upright in box, simply but perfectly packed - Night and day difference. I hope WFF can up their game and ship plants responsibly.

A mixed experience this year with White Flower Farm: I ordered two irises, three herbs, and two perennials early this Spring. Each category shipped separately with no clear indication of when they would ship until they actually did. The potting mix was all over the box when I opened up the irises, and pretty much nothing remained around the roots, which were bone dry, plants wilted. They were wrapped in paper, but with nothing to stop the soil from spilling. I contacted WFF and they immediately issued a replacement for both. When received, they were in the same condition--I gave up. They're all planted and looking rough, but maybe they'll settle in.

The herbs were in terrific condition, robust and healthy, properly damp, and the soil was still intact. Totally happy with them and they're doing well.

The perennials (Echinacea) arrived in poor condition. The plants themselves were scruffy and small, and they'd been stuffed into the packaging in such a way that practically smothered them. And they were very dry (they took forever to arrive via UPS). I contacted WFF and they apologized and promptly refunded for the cost of the items since they were no longer in stock and could not replace.

Bottom line: their packing leaves a lot to be desired--it's the source of all my problems, so I don't know that I'll order in the future. On the other hand, they give great customer service and don't hesitate to make things right--all with a great attitude, which seems to be a rarity these days.

I have been ordering from WFF yearly since 1998. My experience is different from a lot of others' because I order primarily bulbs, including tulips, narcissus, alliums,lilies, fall and spring crocuses, anemones, and so on. The quality has consistently been excellent. One of the reasons that I order hundreds of bulbs from them is that I do a "per bulb" cost analysis, and in quantities from 3 to under 50 they are usually cheaper than others, even if the others have an early bird discount (particularly in the 10-12 range - I can't use 50 of a single tulip). I have also ordered sensational peonies (3 Festiva Maxima, 2 years ago, for $19.95) and ferns. These, I suspect, are the areas in which the company excells, which perhaps explains the conflicting responses. I have ordered only a handful of perennials, but the campanula persificolia (12) I ordered years ago were great, and when I reported that one of them died, they sent three as a replacement. (I stopped ordering these types of perennials when I realized how easy they were to grow from seed). I did order a baptisia australis from them that established itself and bloomed in a single season; some I ordered from another company took three years to do the same.

I recently sent them an e-mail because a particularly trio of lilies did not appear. They left a message with a toll free number, and when I called informed me that they had already put in an order for replacement. When one particularly finicky allium failed to appear in sufficient numbers, they apologized that they no longer carry it and asked what other allium I would like. I named a more expensive one, was congratulated on my great taste, and done!

For bulbs, ferns, and peonies, then, they are my first stop each year.

Everything we ordered this season arrived in excellent condition. I ordered multiple varieties of dahlias for my workplace & an assortment of lilies, perennials & shrubs for my homestead. They had excellent communication; received status updates on all orders. Everything was perfectly packaged in multiple boxes. Comparing prices with big box retailers, the prices were fair. The fragrant oriental lilies were a bargain ($2 ea. for 24 bulbs); beautiful quality. All sent with appropriate dormancy for planting outdoors in April in northern New England. Roses (tho’ pricey) were very high quality ($36 ea.) but they were of superior bare root quality; huge root systems & multiple bud breaks. Everything very satisfactory. Their prices are top shelf but so is their product quality; worth it! Very satisfied customer.

I used to order from WFF decades ago (literally), back when they and Wayside were the "go to" mail order nurseries for things you could not find locally. As time went on, other specialist nurseries arose and became reliable sources for more unusual things than WFF had.

Fast forward to early March of this year when WFF appeared to be the only nursery offering three specific perennials on my wantlist. (Not rare or unusual, simply that none of my go-to online sources are stocking those this year.) So I ordered them from WFF. First thing I noticed was that there is no ability to specify a preferred shipping date on the order form; WFF says "ships at the right time for spring planting." O-kay then, I will trust them to know when my last frost date is. After all, they are only 2 hours away from me....

Imagine my surprise when I received a "Your plants have shipped!" email in *MARCH*! Three weeks BEFORE the average last frost date (April 15th) here.This did not make me happy, because the planting bed in question was still quite cold and mucky from recently melted snow. And the plants were bare root which meant I had to scramble to get them potted up somehow and stored frost-free at a time when overnights were still in the 30s. Nobody should ever ship plants to my zipcode in March! When ordering, I always specify "April 15th or later."

Also, WFF sent only ONE of the three types of perennials in my order. The other two types were not included but "would follow later." Got the second of the three (two echinaceas) about a week later. Small pots but, I will say, well rooted. But frost was expected for the next three nights and so they had to stay in the garage. I still have not received the third perennial type yet, thankfully, because it is still far too early for those (Rudbeckias.) I suspect they are probably seed/greenhouse grown anyway.

Unfortunately, any northeastern nursery who thinks it is okay to ship anything to a northeast customer at any time in March is unlikely to ever get another order from me. But at least now I understand why their shipping fees are so high compared to other nurseries who are NOT on the West Coast. Example using a plant material cost of $75-$99.99 from a well known midwest nursery starting with B = $16.95. Example using a plant material cost of $90-$150 from WFF = $29.00. Frankly, the only East Coast nursery with higher shipping costs is the one whose initials are P.D. (and I can't afford to order from them at all, so it's a moot point, lol)

Ordered 3 Cherry Nymph Amaryllis for Christmas gifts. The bulbs arrived in a timely manner. The blooms have been outstanding-extremely large with a gorgeous color. Will order again.
Thanks
Customer service told me how to keep the bulbs so they will bloom again.

I had a similar (unhappy) experience to that of another reviewer here. I contacted WFF about issues with the quality of plants they sent (two roses out of five arrived in horrible condition, showing signs that they had been in their carton for far too long, and UPS screwed up the delivery of a box of perennials). I found that the WWF customer service phone line is never answered, so I contacted the company through email. I got an automated email response saying they would address the issue soon. But they never did. I assume they never will. Terrible customer service equals terrible company, in my opinion. It’s a shame, because WWF was once a reliable, friendly company. It is always a red flag if you cannot talk to a company representative over the phone!

I ordered tomato plants from White Flower Farm this spring, when most online nurseries were overwhelmed by demand and staffing difficulties. I was told to expect shipping delays. However, I received the plants, carefully packaged and in good condition, perhaps only a week or two later than I otherwise might have expected. They have thrived this year and I have since placed orders for peonies and narcissus bulbs for fall planting.

After receiving six plants--two nearly dead and four dead--on June 9, I took photos of all the plants in their packaging and sent an email with the photos to White Flower Farms on June 10 asking for my money back. Plant replacement would have been fine as well but I have received no response of any kind. The email I used is the customer service email as indicated on the WFF website. I have also tried to call, but the voice mail refers customers, again, to the same customer service email. I have now sent five emails to White Flower Farm and have received no reply whatsoever--not even an automatic receipt of email. I am so disappointed in White Flower Farm. Their customer service used to be very good. I'll never order from them again--they sent me dead plants!

I ordered over $550 in plants and merchandise from WFF in late winter and early spring 2020. Who could have guessed that COVID would have such an impact on Nurseries? I was impressed by the communication from the company, keeping us informed all along the way.

My favorite items are a Cretan snake jar and the plumbago and lemon star thunbergia ordered for my deck. The pairing was suggested by WFF and exceeded my expectations. Just beautiful. I also LOVE the Chateau Tuteur Large. I have a David Austin English Rose and 2 clematis starting to grow on it.

Of the many other plants ordered I did have trouble with alyssum. Box arrived torn and twisted and the plants mostly dead. WFF issued a refund immediately. A couple of other plants looked a bit sad, but have revived and are now ready to bloom, they were the big duck gold marigold and the Angelonia angustifolia Angelface.

I am very happy with WFF and found items for my garden that I couldn’t find locally.

I ordered 7 tomato plants from WFF this spring. They were packed perfectly and were very healthy. We planted them about one week ago and are growing beautifully!

I’ve been a loyal White Flower Farm customer back to 2005 when I bought my first house in Bristol, Connecticut. I had a work-related relocation that brought me to Springfield, Illinois, but I continued to use White Flower Farms for superior tomato plants. I purchased for a few years with no issues and wonderful, healthy plants. NOT THIS YEAR.

WFF shipped plants during a record cold snap and when they arrived, I immediately opened the box and found plants tipped around, 4 out of the 12 plants were missing tags (and i bought various varieties) and 5 were dead on arrival with obvious signs of frost damage. I contacted customer service for replacements (I plan ahead and had my order in to WFF back in February) and was told THEY DIDN’T HAVE ANY MORE STOCK. I am appalled that they SOLD EVERY SINGLE TOMATO PLANT and made no provisions for damage in transit.

And to add insult to injury, now all other San Marzano plants are OUT OF STOCK at every other mail order nursery and it is far too late to start from seed.

Since my original outreach, 4 more plants died. So over $85 for 3 plants. Thanks a lot WFF for ruining my garden this year.

To their credit, they offered me a paltry refund for the 5 frost damaged plants (didn’t refund any shipping). They never responded to my follow up email.

Shame on WFF for prioritizing profits during the COVID-19 pandemic over good old fashioned customer service. I will never purchase from them again. Great way to lose a loyal, long-term customer.

Ordered $700 worth of plants from perennials, such as foxgloves and phlox to annual combination planters. Overall, I received 8 boxes of plants, and each plant was packaged extremely well with the safety in mind. Through no fault of the company, One box of plants was rather beat up, but none of the plants were damaged. All plants were received in good health except one which is exceptional considering the 40-some plants ordered. Nothing a little TLC can't fix.

Dear Mrs. Griffin,

I sincerely apologize for the error in only refunding you for the product. I have issued a full refund on the tax & shipping/handling to your credit card. You should have received a separate email earlier today regarding this refund. Your order was on "ship status" being prepped for shipment on 5/1. Once an order is in ship status, unfortunately, we are unable to make any modifications to it. Your order status online should now reflect a "completed" transaction.

Sincerely,

I ordered a few select annuals that arrived today, everything looked quite happy and healthy upon unpacking. White Flower Farm is always a great source for gardening inspiration, I love their selection, but they are definitely pricey. I find that paying more for plants helps to ensure that you get what you want, without unwanted outcomes such as new diseases for your garden. Plus a guarantee on the plants you purchased. It's worth the extra money, especially for gardeners with small gardens. I will definitely order more hard to find goodies from them in the future! Thanks!

Received my first order. I ordered dahlias. They shipped at the proper time and were healthy. Good experience.

As a gardener from the northeast transplanted to Texas, I would like to share my compliments for WFF. I miss my visits to their beautiful garden in Litchfield, which is worth the trip for anyone venturing through the area. My garden in CT was bountiful with many WFF plants. Their plants were of the highest quality. I can't wait to receive my next spring shipment in Texas!

White Flower Farm has fabulous delphiniums. They might be comparatively more expensive than elsewhere, but are absolutely worth it. It was my first order from them, delph. bloomed fairly quickly and rebloomed during the summer. Stunning color and form. I've already ordered more for next year. Great shipping and packaging too.

Expensive bulbs and shipping for tulip Bulbs! Only ordered bulbs that I couldn't find elsewhere. The bulbs were plump though. Second time ordering.

For the first time I ordered two hydrangeas from this company and I was amazed at what I got. The plants were big and healthy, and I even divided one bush into two. After planting the hydrangeas immediately started to bloom - all three of them. I was also amazed at the choice of hydrangeas this company has. I will order here again. THANK YOU!

I placed an order with this company on May 4, they charged my credit card on May 5 for almost $70.00 and I still have not received a shipping notice, as of today it still says "processing". I have called them twice and they will not give me a shipping date. I have long ago received all of my other shipments from other companies except White Flower Farm, I hope the plants arrive before it gets too hot here in my zone 6b location but I am very worried and hate the stress this causing me!

I wish you could leave a review somewhere between neutral and positive. I want to LOVE White Flower Farm (oh that catalog!), but I only like them. The positives: good selection, especially of perennials that can be hard to find elsewhere; stuff ships when they say it will and at appropriate time for planting; good performance of some plants. The negatives: high prices; small plant sizes; and occasional poor plant performance. So I have kind of figured out over the years what I can and can't buy from them. I won't do shrubs anymore after I was sent a lilac twig that died and I won't do daylilies as places that specialize in these flowers are superior for that. I do turn to WFF for perennials I can't find elsewhere, just knowing the cost will be high, the plants will be small, and my husband will say, "You spent $200 for THAT!" But they are plants and will grow. The iris I planted from WFF last year are gorgeous--the stars of my garden right now. The perennials I planted earlier this spring were small but are doing well. My bare root roses are thriving. So I'd say order from WFF but just adjust your expectations, especially for cost, accordingly.

I have been a White Flower Farm customer for many years and not only buy plants for my garden, but also regularly give White Flower Farm gift certificates to friends and family who garden.
I order my plants in February to make sure I get the heirloom tomatoes and hard to get plants that often sell out.
The plants usually come around Mother's Day. This year they came early, and for some reason, several of the plants did not make it. In the past I have had one or two that did not survive, but this year I had 8 (of 36) that didn't make it..
True to their word, when I called, they promised to replace the plants that didn't make it, no questions asked. While some of the more popular, heirloom plants were, unfortunately, sold out, White Flower gave me the option of replacing them with different varieties, or getting a credit.
I like that they stand by the plants that they sell, and that their customer service is nice, and helpful.
I would definitely recommend White Flower Farm.

I ordered two orders of "The Works" Daffodil collection last summer (200 bulbs); the bulbs arrived in time for planting last fall. The bulbs were good sized and in excellent condition. I planted them within a week. This spring they are simply gorgeous. Many are large flowered, fragrant, quite a few double flowers and a great variety of color. I will be ordering more bulbs this year as I want to increase the area devoted to spring bulbs. I've ordered from this company for a number of years and have always been pleased with the plants and have always had good service.

I have daffodils that are blooming now that were put in a number of years ago. I have found that bulbs planted in shady locations will often "peter out" over time; that's mostly due to location (light) and neglect (the bulbs do need to be fertilized after flowering). But bulbs that are planted in sunny locations and fertilized continue to expand and product beautiful flowers year after year. I've been very happy with my experience with White Flower Farm.

Ordered a trillium grandiflora flora pleno and it arrived rotted. Called multiple times and could never get a live rep . When I left an email that I'd leave negative feedback, Valerie contacted me and said they send me a new bulb. Two weeks later, no corm, no contact from them and I can't reach them. If it were a few dollar item I'd forget it, but this costs over $30. At this point a credit would be great.... but I hate to see them loose a customer.

"On May 4, 2017 11:00 AM, White Flower Farm responded with:

I am sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the quality of the trillium and service you received. I see that Valerie and Diane both assisted you with getting your replacement trillium shipped out as quickly as possible. In addition, we refunded your credit card $37.95 (product & applicable s&h charges) to compensate you for your frustration.
Please feel free to contact me directly if you have any additional questions or concerns - I'd be happy to assist you.

First I must say I'm a new customer to White Flower Farm, although I do a lot of online shopping and this review is about the processing time, not the actual products.

I placed my order with them on 4/17, today is 4/26 and I still have no tracking number and my order has not been processed yet although my card was charged immediately. The website clearly states "orders are shipped at the right time for planting in your area" My zone is 10b so late Feb. I called today and was told orders can take 7-10 business days to process and that many many customers were in front of me. and I should call back on Friday (4/28 after the tenth business day). Seriously?! This will be my last order from WFF. I get that this must be busy season for them in April in Connecticut but there are many other options out there for my gardening needs

Through no fault of this company, I never received the White Wisteria or Day Lily that I ordered. The problem was clearly on my end, but Diana and Donna gave me a credit for the honor anyway! Now, this is customer service that goes way beyond expectancy.

I give them five stars for listening to my problem and assisting me in a most professional and caring way!

Because of this alone, I will look first for my plants at this fine company!

Ordered bulbs this spring from several companies. Always compare bulb size where that info is available. White Flower Farm didn't provide bulb size but I figured that for the money, they must be selling premium goods.

The bulbs received are fine but not huge or outstanding. Prices seem high for what was sent, compared with other suppliers. One Dahlia Fleurel bulb for $10.50 and from another supplier 3/$11.95. Same quality. Hmmm.

"On Apr 21, 2017 6:59 AM, White Flower Farm responded with:

Thank you for your comments, I have forwarded your feedback to our Director of Horticulture. All of our Dahila tubers are guaranteed throughout the growing season. If you are not pleased with the performance of the plants, please contact us in the fall via email or telephone at custserv@whiteflowerfarm.com or 800-411-6159 and you will be fully compensated with either replacement tubers in the spring or a credit/refund, whichever you prefer.

I ordered two lily collections (36 bulbs) and received them last week. The lily bulbs were big and plump and looked freshly dug! They exceeded all my expectations! I compared the White Flower Farm lily bulbs to those I bought at a big box store, and the store lily bulbs were tiny and dried out. I am looking forward to seeing and smelling the lilies later this summer! The size and quality of White Flower Farm lily bulbs were outstanding! (Circleville, Ohio)

This review is written about a RECENT experience, not something from years ago like some of the reviews which I find so useless.

They are very serious about making sure you are happy with your purchase; five stars!

I chose to order 2 Daphne amaryllis bulbs from White Flower Farm this fall (2016) I had one bulb bloom not true to color. I was offered a replacement bulb from whatever varieties were still in stock (this variety being sold out) or a replacement of the same bulb sent next year. They even offered to let me wait and ensure the second bulb bloomed true before submitting the request. When they heard the second bulb was blooming the right color, but only 2 blooms per stalk (which I had figured might just be a quirk to this variety) they decided to send a replacement for it too! I will get my replacements next year, as I like this variety and did not want the others. This was my first order from WFF, and I will be keeping them on my list of places to order from :)

I purchased a Waterfall Japanese maple from White Flower Farm this past spring and it is doing well so far.

I was very impressed with how carefully packaged the maple was when it arrived and the delivery was timely.
