Headsup About White Flower Farm Reviews
Comments (37)In your zeal to be angry & sarcastic, you've missed my point about the sandwiches. I was trying to say that it's a fun event and people from all around the US look forward to it annually. WFF lives/dies by their reputation. Competition for plant sales is fierce. I make no apologies for supporting WFF. I have 20+ years of experience with this company. I feel confident in my assessment that they will do all that is possible to correct a customer complaint. But, as all of us know who have businesses that deal with the public...some people can't be pleased no matter what you do, or say. That's life. And yes, I believe some people are more inclinced to complain than compliment. For example, when was the last time you took five minutes from your day & phoned management at the restaurant that served you a good meal with good service, & at fair price to give a compliment? If you have a problem plant from WFF, or any other company, by all means call & get it corrected. Yes, WFF's plants are small...so are Bluestone Perennials'. If you want a bit larger plants...try Plant Delights. They are also an excellent company with vast experience...way more than any of us. I was fortunate to attend a horticultural lecture on hostas by Tony Advent a couple years ago. If you have a chance...I highly recommend paying the price of admittance to one of his lectures. I'm trying to say that there are people behind these companies. Those people want you to be a satisfied customer. /t...See MoreUnusual Amaryllis Source other than White Flower Farm?
Comments (5)did you know that there is a Amaryllis/Hippeastrum Forum here? there are a lot of knowledgeable people that love amaryllis there. there are quite a few places to order from. here is a list of some of the places that have been mentioned before on the amaryllis forum. it's always a good idea to check the ratings here before ordering. royal colors great place to order from - international - may take some time to receive the bulbs, but they are good quality bulbs easy to grow bulbs brent and becky's bulbs booming bulb willow creek gardens edens blooms park seed american meadows...See MoreWhite Flower Farm - Pricey!
Comments (18)I agree that they are expensive, but I work more than full time and often on weekends so I don't have time to shop the local nurseries on the off-chance of finding something I might like or am looking for. Even if I call and ask at a local place for something specific, all they ever say is "We haven't decided/I don't have the list of what we are ordering this spring.. Just come see us and maybe you will see something you like." I don't have the time for that. White Flower Farm often has most of the odd or new things that I am interested in, so it's worth it to me to order the 3 or 4 things they have instead of order 1 thing from each of 4 different other mail order places. However, I don't order from them every year....See MoreIf you had a $50 giftcard to White Flower farm, what...
Comments (22)Ellen, that is great to know about the Apricot Sprite Agastache. I have had the Blue Fortune Agastache that was not hardy enough here and Honey Bee Blue Agastache which reseeded a little too much for me. Love the fragrance of the leaves! I have some seed to try this year of Lady in Red Salvia. I also saw an online herbal grower that had some of the salvias that are not hardy here for about $4.50 for a 4" plant and I may try getting a few of those in the spring. I usually have cosmos, zinnia [mine were so late blooming last year], but the foxglove died out last winter [more started]. I haven't tried cleome or red salvia yet. I will be interested to hear if your Apricot Sprite makes it through to spring. Asarum, good advice. With such high prices, I would also tend to select plants that I would have a hard time finding other places. pm2...See More
