What customers say
Customer feedback centers on the plant's potential beauty versus delivery consistency. When received healthy, buyers adore the lush foliage and anticipate the signature Gardenia fragrance, praising the robust condition upon arrival. This positive experience makes the tree a worthwhile garden addition. Conversely, many customers report significant transit stress, receiving wilted or damaged plants that quickly decline. This inconsistency in arrival condition creates frustration, especially given the specialty cost. While the product shows high quality potential, the delivery reliability remains the primary point of contention, leading to polarized reviews ranging from delight to disappointment.
