2014 online retailer review
Comments (49)I got the balance of my Burgess order, so I figured I'd follow up. It seems to be a definite "some things are better than others" type of place, so hopefully this will help someone figure out what is most worth it: Rose bushes and peony trees (bare root) came looking quite decent, and all of them have continued to be alive in my garden. A few have been slow to leaf out, but nothing arrived dead or rotted, and everything seems to be getting along now. Humming bird vines arrived looking like sticks - they were alive, but sticks. All are still alive, and one is leafing out, so, OK. The things are supposed to be impossible to kill, so I'm hopeful. Clematis came as cute little spider-looking root nodes. Fairly fresh looking. They have all sprouted up nicely. Honesuckle vines looked like a bit of a mess when they arrived - it was hard to tell what was supposed to be planted, what was root vs. vine, etc. I've got nothing out of those yet, and for all I know I planted the darn things upside down. Day lilies came as nice little root bunches, and all are sprouting up nicely now. The bare root trees I had received earlier all still appear to be alive (they're flexible and show green if you scratch the bark), but not a one has leafed out yet. The little potted lemon and lime trees I got came looking good, but the lime was suffering such a mineral deficiency I'm still not sure it will make it. Maybe 3 years from now I'll have a stand of nice little trees started for next to nothing and I'll pat myself on the back, but I'm not awfully impressed on the tree front just yet. Overall I'm still giving Burgess a solid C. I'd never accept it if I'd paid anything approaching a usual nursery price for what I got, but overall I think I got what I paid for....See MoreCanadian online retailers
Comments (17)You are right...cheaper is not always better. But, in the case of getting hostas from Pat Vinish, the Hostageek...I would highly recommend his hostas. He purchases a lot of his hostas from reputable hosta suppliers like Q & Z Nurseries in the US. You will find that the quality of the hostas are amazing and the root systems of the hostas he grows are HUGE. He packs them well in moss and so, even when they come all the way from Nova Scotia here to me in Manitoba they are fresh and do wonderful here later. He looks at all the prices of the hosta suppliers in Canada and then, sets his prices to be generally lower than them. He has about 800 (?) varieties to choose from and does not need to charge taxes like many other hosta suppliers do. He does the farmer's market in Halifax, bringing his hosta and other perennials for sale there. In spring he has a $15 flat shipping fee to Manitoba and so, I once again, have a large order going into him....See MoreHosta retailers in Atlanta metro area or online...
Comments (3)Here's a link to the GA Hosta Society, and a list of local vendors. Add to list: Bentleygardens.com / Loganville Pixieforest.com / Auburn Most have websites and will ship. In addition to the ones mentioned by Ken, I also like Green Hill Farm (hostahosta.com) I also grow Heucheras, but only have cultivars of the Southeastern US Natives, H. americana & H. villosa, as the other hybrids don't survive for me. Rb Here is a link that might be useful: GA Hosta Society...See MoreRatings of online retailers/gardens
Comments (7)There is a new eBay vendor who doesn't realize how excessively big her divisions are. She advertizes the largest divisions on eBay and she isn't kidding. Look for Beth Wright. I have just bought a 2nd flush of hosta for her. They're big enough to divide with another trader online, plus 2 others. Unbelievable. Christine...See Moresloyder
