Robs Violet Barn?

13 years ago

Hi everyone:

Has anyone ever ordered begonias from Robs Violet Barn? Were you happy with your order? Additionally I am in Canada, and so am wondering if any Canadian has received plants from them and what kind of shape they came in. It's kind of an expensive deal to get plants across the border so your thoughts would be appreciated...they sure have some nice little begonias that I just know I cannot get in Canada!

I purchased african violets, begonias, etc from them a couple of years ago and I was very happy with the plants. They did end up in customs for awhile but they were well packed and watered, and were in great shape when they arrived. They really do have some beautiful begonias don't they?

i've ordered begonias, streptocarpus, episcias, and AVs from them and the quality is great. They also arrived in perfect condition. I have the begonias Black Fang and Baby Dress from them, and they're thriving.
