Pleasantly surprised by size

Ordering was easy and once shipped they got to me in two days. They were packaged well and I was pleasantly surprised by how tall they were when I got them. I ordered the 15 gallon. Really nice, healthy palms.

Love our Windmill Palms!

I was so happy to find this website! I love palm trees so much, giving our property a tropical feel means the world to me! These palms were delivered quickly and were in perfect condition when they arrived. Shipping and delivery was fast. I'm very excited to see how these grow in the coming years!

Windmill Palms

So far everything is good. The palms were shipped looking healthy. Planted one palm in-ground, three palms in a pottery.

Great Customer Service!

After accidentally only sending 1 of each tree i purchased on a BOGO special, the rep who helped me on the phone immediately sent out the additional plants...no questions asked. 1st box was sketchy and plants were damaged, but 2nd box was in good shape and plants looked awesome. Great customer service in my opinion!
