"I bought 3 of these to cover a large area along my driveway. All of the plants were packed very well and were healthy upon arrival. They've been in the ground for about a month or so and seem to be doing well. Love these pre-planned gardens and will definitely be buying more in the future from American Meadows. #sweepstakes"
"I've wanted to grow a designated pollinator garden for several years and this mix seemed like a great variety for a space I have that had been weeds with poor, fast draining soil. I amended the area with a little compost and some alpaca gold. After planting I lightly mulched. The plants arrived heavily root- bound and slightly yellowed so I was worried, but they've all taken off, some are thriving, others will be more so next year. I realize in another year this area is going to fill out and I'm looking forward to watching the spread. I've had more bees and butterflies this year, making my vegetable garden flourish. I would recommend this pollinator garden to a person looking for a country garden feel. The plant mix is lovely."
"The perfect garden plan if you want to dissuade deer from snacking on your blooms. Can't wait to see it mature fully. Bees and butterflies are loving it!"
"I have an area near the front door that was barren. I bought the area bundle, deer resistant plants that had a schematic for planting and after a couple of months it is growing beautifully and has many flowers that the hummers and butterflies are loving! Perfect!"
"All the plants arrived in good shape, well packaged. I kept them inside for a few weeks to avoid cold overnight temps. This was good as they stated to take off. The planting diagram was helpful. They have caught hold and all had some blooms. Can't wait for the next few years as they really take off with all the blooms."
"I ordered this pre-planned perennial garden to plant in a raised bed along a slope where I had previously raised vegetables. Will be selling the house next year and wanted to add some easy attractive plants that would come back next spring. Everything arrived timely and in good shape. The planting instructions were clear and easy to follow. Everything (except one plant that American Meadows is cheerfully replacing) has thrived and I even have profuse blooms to enjoy! I didn't necessarily expect blooming in the first year, but the plants are thriving and blooming and it is lovely! Very pleased and highly recommend!!"
"At first, I felt like they were never going to bloom, then was told they will not be fully developed for three years, so that was disappointing, but I was ok with that. However, many of the flowers started blooming like crazy! I'm so happy I bought this plan! There are a few that haven't bloomed yet, but they're still healthy and growing, so assuming blooms will come next year, or later in the fall."
"It's been a few months and everything looks great and has doubled in size! I even have flower buds on the tickseed!"
"Replaced an overgrown tree in Spring 2019. Have only lost 3 plants of the 18 so far and I consider that a really good result. I'll just buy a few to replace them now (Fall 2020) or in the spring of 2021."
"All of these little plants lived except one which in my experience is great! The plants are strong and producing lots of beautiful flowers in a spot that gets direct, unshaded, westerly sunlight. The only one that was damaged, and had one plant actually pulled out and eaten by either a deer or a rabbit was the lupine. The critter only tried to eat one of them, so I think it didn't taste good to them! Now I am trying to figure out where I can plant the Fall mixture!"
