3-Plants not doing anything.
My order included 3 Red Painted Daisy plants that looked like dried up weed when I received them. They look even worse after being in the ground over a month. How long should it take for them to look alive? I've tried calling the listed phone No. but it is on constant busy!
User's recommendation: Be prepared to be frustrated trying to make contact w/company!

I have been invoiced for my order on 5-25-20, but I have yet to receive the order.
Ordered product on 4-28-20. Invoice for the order on 5-25-20. On 6-4-20 I e-mailed the company for an expected delivery date. On 6-4-20 I received an e-mail reply saying that "due to unprecedented demand it would take 3-4 business days" to have my concern addressed. It is now 6-12-20 and I have had no response from Burgess Seed &;; Plant Co.

Unable to contact. received 1 "red bird in a tree" which was only about 1 inch long without roots. I had ordered 2 of these trees and paid for them when I placed my order.
I do NOT have my trees nor do I have my money back. Your so called "company" is a disgrace to the nursery industry. I either want 2 trees that will survive and are much larger than 1 inch or I want my money back $ 18.49. I would prefer the money since I really don't trust your supplies. By the wasy, I showed the plant to some people and they actually laughed. What a joke!!!!!Never
User's recommendation: Never Ever purchase anything from Burgess.

Terrible service
Still waiting for an order I placed in April. You've been paid...check cleared the bank in April. If items are not on their way now, canel order and refund my money!! All I get on your customer "service" number is a busy signal. Don't bother sending me any more catalogs.
User's recommendation: STAY AWAY!!!!

I ordered $156.63 worth of plants on or about 4/17/20. My check for the full amount cleared my bank for payment on 4/22. I have not received a single one of those items yet, nor any communications to inform me if I ever will. All I get is a busy signal when I try to call. This is the last order you will ever receive from. If I do not receive my order in full within one week from today's date, I DEMAND a full refund, or I will contact the Better Business Bureau!!
User's recommendation: STAY AWAY!!

Verified ReviewerCan not get your telephone to answer. Have tried and tried but always busy.
I ordered an number of items in April of 2019. Some did not even grow, however I have sent the paper work twice. The first time it was in January of 2020, but you it returned and told me to resubmit in the spring of 2020. Which I did but no replacement of the Shasta Daisies ONLY. Told you to forget the others as the daisies did not even sprout. The phone is always busy, as I have tried, and tried but can not get through, It is now June 8th and I have not received a replacement.
User's recommendation: DO NOT ORDER FROM THIS COMPANY. THE PLANTS ARE TOOTH PICKS AND IT SEEMS THEY DON"T REPLACE.I.
