Wrong timing

It's going dormant, let's wait until spring to see how it does

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Rueben, we appreciate your review. Dormancy is expected during this season, so your plant is just resting and storing energy. It should wake up and put out fresh growth in the spring. Feel free to reach out anytime if you need care tips.

Elderberry purchase

Ordered the Marge Elderberry and it arrived damaged, but I attribute that to FedEx not maintaining the box labeling of “this side up”. Reported the issue with a picture, and was promptly sent a replacement in perfect shape.

Fast Growing Trees Plant ExpertHi Mark, we’re really sorry the first plant arrived in rough shape and appreciate you taking the time to report it. Sometimes even with careful packaging, transit issues can happen. We’re glad the replacement arrived safely and in great condition. Thanks again for growing with us and please don’t hesitate to reach out if you ever need help.
