    Nobody likes waiting. Did you order from a reputable supplier?

    Be glad you live in the USA; when I brought my first Meyers into Guatemala, it took me 2 years to get in 500 trees. The problems started with the Minister of Agriculture in Guatemala will not issue an import license for live plants without a USDA phytosanitation inspection..... and the USDA will not do a phytosanitation inspection without an import license; after that it got worse! So I guess 2 weeks is not so bad. Good luck.

    They are starting b to make me mad I emailed them before I even ordered to make sure they had it in stock and could still ship them.

    Hey, like Serg said, where did you order them from?

    Sometimes it's good to let others know so they can either feel your pain or support you.

    So, they lied when they sold it to you as "in stock". To me that is a big negative with any seller of anything; and perhaps a reason not to order from them again.

    Just messaged them if I don't get it soon I found somewhere else that's just a little more expensive but could get it to me at the most 4 days after I buy it

    If you're going to buy another tree at least buy something that will be worth your money. Try https://www.fourwindsgrowers.com they have some really nice trees especially when you buy a 2-3 year. Just my 2 cents.

    Now I'm mad they emailed me saying I needed to give them time for processing and shipping and basically I'm sending to many emails. I think 3 weeks is plenty of time for processing and shipping

    Years ago I ordered a lime tree from the same company. It takes them forever to ship out. I received the tree after about a month of waiting. Calling and giving bad reviews didnt help. When the tree arrived it was exactly what i expected for the price: a small rooted cutting. It was a great tree to practice citrus culture on because it was so inexpensive...I eventually killed it and learned from the growing experience. My current citrus are from Four Winds.

    They are probably just a small family business and just can't do things faster. Maybe they were making sure it was actually rooted or the grafts were strong enough. Anyway, enjoy your 3 in one tree now that you finally have it. It will be worth the wait when you get it to produce flowers and fruit in a few years. It will be interesting to see how the different branches grow. I wish you the best growing it.
