I ordered multiple primrose last spring and for the liw price I expected tiny seedlings, not fully grown and blooming, large healthy plants! I was incredibly impressed at how healthy it arrived (and packaged so well!). It continued to bloom for weeks and the plants themselves grew really well for the rest of the season. Looking forward to adding more this year! Superb quality A+++
I found US Perennials by accident (they carry a specific variety of lungwort I was searching for) and put in an order hoping for the best. The plants were such high quality that I put in two more orders within the month. Very impressed with the packaging and plant quality. I planted 9 primroses and can't wait to see their blooms next year.
I've ordered from many mail order nurseries over the years. I hadn't heard of US Perennials until recently. I'll have to say that these are the very best mail order plants I've ever received. The plants are beautiful, and the packaging is top notch. I was so happy with my order that I immediately placed another order. I look forward to seeing these plants thrive in my garden. I highly recommend doing business with this company.
