United StatesIt was my first order from your company and I am very impressed! The ordering on the website was very simple and communication regarding status was excellent. The healthy bushy shrub arrived on the day stated and was in excellent condition so I am very pleased. Thank you!
United StatesPleasantly surprised how well they looked out of their shipping box. I planted them just a few weeks ago but so far they’re okay. Started to look SLIGHTLY droopy so Im trying to figure if this is normal or if something is wrong. I really don’t want want them to die since they are a little pricey.
United StatesI was amazed at the quality and condition of the plants. They were expertly packed and shipped. We will definitely order again in the future. Communication was excellent. Thanks for a wonderful experience!
United StatesI was very nervous about ordering trees online. I don't know much about planting trees and the local landscapers didn't seem to know much more then I was able to look up. The site was full of details I needed to make my decision and the trees came in looking healthy. I planted them about two weeks ago and they are doing great.
United Statesthe is the first time we ordered plants by mail. We are very pleased. The plants arrived exactly as indicated. They were packed very well and arrived in wonderful condition. Can't wait to get them in the ground and see how well they grow. These are much healthier looking than many of the plants at the local nurseries.
Planting & Care
1. Planting: First, select a location with well-drained soil and full sun to partial shade – any area with about 4 to 6 hours of sunlight should suffice. When you’re ready to plant, dig a hole that’s about three times the width of your plant’s root ball, and place your plant.
2. Watering: Once established, your Skip Laurel is relatively drought-tolerant, but it’s important to have a regular watering schedule for the first few growing seasons. Water about once weekly or check the surrounding soil about 2 or 3 inches down.
