      Terrible customer service I got two different shipments both were lacking product I had to contact customer service and they could not send out what I was due. They attempted to give me a credit for the amount of the items I did not receive but in order for me to use that credit and then to reorder I would have to pay shipping for these items of which I already did so. Yes I got free shipping but it was because I spent $75 in order to gain access to free shipping. When I called them about that they simply said no worries just spend 50 and you'll get free shipping to replace my $17 credit. So in other words spend 33 more dollars and you'll get your free shipping. This is not what I would call good customer service it's what I would Call a scam and I would not advise anyone to use this company. There are many other very fine establishments that sell plants that would be a lot more adequate for your purchases.
