GBRidiculously slow delivery The time from when an order is placed to when the order is shipped is glacial and completely unacceptable. The shipping info on the website does not clearly explain the long delay before the order is shipped. On top of that, when I called White Flower Farms to find out what happened to my order, their Customer Service people were totally defensive and told me I was wrong to feel that shipment was too slow. I will never order from them again.

GBOrdered and planted 300 daffodils last… Ordered and planted 300 daffodils last fall. Called and told White Flower Farm that at least 20 bulbs were soft. She said she would take care of it. She didn't. Worse more than 30 did not come up. Called and got cut off; was talking with Millis. Wrote 2 weeks ago and never got a response. Also ordered 200 crocuses and noted that I thought I was getting a 50/50 yellow/blue mix. Got 80 or 90 yellow mix. Very disappointed. I was the third generation to deal with White Flower. Not anymore. They got their $600.00 and dumped me.

GBReally rotten customer service Christmas cactus is rootbound, and came in a planters pot instead of the copper pot I ordered. NO instructions whatsoever. The copper pot into which I must transplant it myself has no holes for drainage, so I have to buy another pot locally. Worse yet, when I called them to get planting/growing instructions, I was on hold for over 17 minutes, with no apology offered. When I asked why there weren't instructions with the plant I was curtly advised "we sell thousands of different kinds of plants, so we couldn't possibly put specific instructions in with each order." Ok, well, here's one less customer who will ever have to bother you. Totally dissatisfied, and will never buy from them again.

GBFANTASTIC SUCH PLEASANT, PERSONAL SERVICE. KNOWLEDGEABLE AND INTERESTED PHONE CONVERSATION WHEN ORDERING MY GOODWIN CREEK GRAY LAVENDER PLANT WHICH WAS DELIVERED TO MY HOME IN PENNSYLVANIA WITHIN TWO DAYS OF MY ORDER REQUEST! SOO PLEASED WITH MY PLANT WHICH LOVES THE SUNSHINE ON MY FRONT STEP. THE CAT SEEMS TO ENJOY THE LAVENDER SCENT - HE VISIBLY SNIFFS THE AIR AS HE LOUNGES NEXT TO THE PLANT IN THE SUN. THANKS, WHITE FLOWER FARM!

GBCan I give less than one star? I have been placing multiple hundreds of dollars in orders from WFF for decades & always lavished praise; even though the plants are pricey & often small in size, the quality was great & the customer service was super-responsive if there was a problem. BUT, JUST THIS WEEK, WFF CANCELED AN ORDER I HAD PLACED W/O TELLING ME! (I only found out after receiving WFF's shipping confirmation & checked the UPS tracking number.) When I called WFF to inquire, I reached a robot telling me that customer service was closed for the weekend. IF REGULAR CUSTOMERS ARE TREATED THIS WAY, I WD WARN POTENTIAL NEW CUSTOMERS TO THINK TWICE BEFORE ORDERING FROM WFF. WFF is no longer the high-quality, reliable company it used to be.
