    Somewhat...

    Posted by Filomena N/A on Jul 09, 2022

    I ordered two of the purple pixie loropetalum. Upon arrival one of the plants looked a bit disheveled. I spoke to a customer service person, who couldn’t have been more helpful. I was sure that once I planted it and watered it it would pick up. Unfortunately the plant is not thriving as I had hoped or like the other one. I also got 3 other bushes in that order as well and they are all thriving. So one out of 5 is not doing too well

    Simple review given a dead plant. FedEx took 10 days to deliver. Plant was desiccated with the media bone dry. Plant Addicts takes no responsibility. Caveat Emptor!

    Amazing company. Will always use them in future.

    Posted by Jessica Storm on Aug 08, 2021

    I was having such a hard time finding this particular plant for my garden. I was nervous about using an online plant service and having them shipped. I have to say, from the moment I placed the order I was blown away. Customer service was amazing with helping me out and answering my questions on shipping. They even send helpful reminder emails about how to take care of your plants and they arrived in perfect condition. I am so glad I took a chance and tried this company. I will always use them in the future.

    Nice Purple Pixie...

    Posted by Debi K Mustain Smith on Jun 28, 2021

    So happy my little PPL arrived well packaged and completely intact, and it even had slightly moist soil due to the plastic “bag” around the temporary pot. Plant seems happy where it’s been put in my front berm for the past week, with afternoon shade of a Crape Myrtle. My first PPL, and I’m hopeful it’ll thrive in its new home. Excellent first experience with Plant Addicts!
