Direct gardening site

| Hey, I ran across this website, directgardening.com, that has several plants I'm looking for. What stood out is that their prices are extremely low compared to other online nurseries. I'm wondering if it's too good to be true. Does anyone have any experience dealing with them?

| I would take the ratings posted on sites like The Garden Watchdog with a very large grain of salt as they take no responsibility in verifying the comments posted (especially given recent events with this particular site). I have purchased from directgardening with repeatedly satisfactory results. |

| I spent over $100 from direct gardening and recieved mostly dead plants and, tiny, tiny I mean tiny bulbs that were supposed to be tulips, hyacinths, lilies and more (when I called to question the size, they said "oh, bulbs don't have to be large to produce large flowers". This was last fall, now its spring and I have nothing but alot of wasted money and time. Sure, they say you can return the merchandise within a year (IF YOU CAN FIGURE OUT WHERE YOU PUT IT IN YOUR GARDEN AND IF YOU HAVE THE LUXURY OF TIME. AND OF COURSE, YOU MUST HAVE THE ORIGINAL PACKAGE AND SLIP THAT EVERYTHING CAME WITH). Don't use this company, they are not interested in your satisfaction. Home Depot does a better job!!! |

| If you want good plants at good prices, try Bluestone Perennials. Their plants are fairly small, but they are healthy and grow well. You can check them out on GardenWatchdog.com too. Given a choice between a nursery with negative reviews when one with positive reviews is available, I'd go with the positive. |
