Beautiful plants arrived quickly

I received my order for Soft Touch Holly shrubs -- order of 8 plants, gallon size. They are in perfect shape, and they arrived quickly! I am so pleased. I will order again from this excellent company. I am impressed with the great discounts and free shipping. I don't know of any other plant company that does this so well, and the plants are truly superb. The selection is wonderful and the plants are obviously of good quality and in excellent health.

These came very quickly and well packed. They appear to be good specimens albeit a little smaller than I expected.
