Plants died. Customer service did not replace.

1.0
The plants I received promptly dies even with perfect care. Customer service via phone took days and days to reach and then they instructed me to return item w/original paging which I did. Then they sent back my note AND the original packaging and instructed me to write exactly what happened. Which I did. I have emailed repeatedly and to this date have not received a replacement for the 2 dead plants. I make my living professionally as a gardener. I would not order from Burgess unless you want dead or dying plants and zero customer service.

User's recommendation: Do NOT order from this company. Try your local garden center.

Terribly unprofessional company

1.0
This company just sucks, ordered two separate orders and they never arrived. Contacted the company via email because nobody ever answers the phone there and after emailing several times they replied with only "I'm sorry we cancelled your orders." That's it, nothing else. I'm going to have a literal blast talking bad about this company every chance I get. They don't deserve any kind of star, maybe a void like a black hole

User's recommendation: don't order from this company.

trying to order from them

Ripped Off

1.0
This company misrepresents their product. You will NOT get anything that resembles the plants shown. You'll get little dead sticks or worse. Their refund policy is a bad joke. You will NOT get a refund. You get a certificate that can only be used by them and, if you don't use it all, you forfeit the rest of your money! Imagaine doing business with a company that steals from you!

User's recommendation: don't even think about doing business with these unethical people!!!

Waited 8 weeks to get my order and the plants arrived dead. Squishy dead. The telephone on their website is permanently busy and 3 contacts using their website forms have produced NO responses from anyone in customer service. They are the worst.

Late shipment and dead plants

1.0
I ordered early the first of March and I called and e-mailed them several times. I finally decided that I would ask for a refund because it was getting too late for some of the plants. After requesting a refund they said they couldn't because it was already in the shipping department. When I finally got the plants I only found two that still had life. I planted both but only one survived. I spent $54.00 for only one plant. I will never order from them again and I hope no one else goes through this terrible mess.

User's recommendation: Do not order.

Well people they came dead. Tried to revive them but no use. Sorry I chose your company so far away. Could have been the post office fault, don't know. Wish they would have made it

User's recommendation: disappointed but with the virus it's understandable everyone is having difficulty.
