The product was delivered 3 days after I ordered it. It was delivered from over 100 miles away from where I live in southern California. Everything was as beautiful as the photo they sent me. I will be placing another order with them very soon.

Very difficult finding Carolina Cherry Laurels in San Diego. Plants delivered were very strong and healthy in 15 gallon containers that other nurseries would move up to 24 gallon containers and charge a whole lot more. We are very happy and pleased with the plants. Thank you very much!
