What customers say
Customer sentiment centers on the value and initial size of these starter trees. Buyers appreciate the competitive pricing for the cold tolerant Chicago Hardy variety and generally praise the careful packaging and healthy root systems upon arrival. However, a significant portion of feedback notes disappointment regarding the diminutive size of the plants received, often describing them as tiny twigs. This perception gap directly affects the perceived value, even when the dormant specimens are viable. While long term success stories confirm the quality of the starter material, improving visual expectations for these small initial shipments would greatly enhance overall customer satisfaction and manage anticipation for future growth.
