My first order from them this year will be my last. I ordered 3 staghorn sumac, and an Opal plum. They did the most incompetent packing job I have ever seen, causing all 4 to be damaged in shipping. The Opal plum may be fatally damaged, and was not even a tree to begin with. It lookes like a child’s failed 4-H project. The rootstock has evidence of at least 1 failed graft attempt, and the actual graft is to growth above the original failed graft. The graft is fresh/not healed and looks like total garbage. The scion was a “Y” fork, not a whip. It was mostly broken off during shipping and there is 1 nearly dead leaf attached to a suckering rootstock. I wrapped the scion in parafilm, but do not expect it to live. Their website said they had 33 Opal plum trees in stock, and they sent me something that is not even a proper tree.
Can not contact them through the website, they did not answer their phone or empty their voicemail.
