CAROL WROTE

My order just arrived and I am so pleased! Everything is in such good shape.

I had previously order some scented geraniums from PapaGinos and was so disappointed...most of them died.

Thanks again, I will keep you in mind for gift certificates for Christmas for my family.

Sincerely, Carol

I just got a big geranium order in from this company, I have ordered in the past and was always pleased. Though I have received small plants in the past that didn't survive. MOST of the time the plants are fantastic, But this is by far the best selection and healthiest of all pelargoniums i've ever received from any company.

They have some new varieties now, you wouldn't believe all the stuff they have new this year in the line of geraniums of course.

Some very unusual variegated leaved ones too. Here's what I received.
Scented :
blanford
filbert
rollisons unique
I think wychwood is scented, I'll have to look it up

all the rest are fancy leaved and other. you should see their black velvet geraniums they have in , their beautiful

I received my geranium order last week and I'm very pleased.   The plants
were larger than I expected, not wilted a bit, and the soil in the pots was
intact.  Great job!

Both orders arrived on the same day, all but one of the plants looked really
healthy, and transplanted one week after receipt.  Allowed to dry a little before
transplanting.  I am impressed with the quality of your plants and with the positive
feedback I found on you on the web  (Dave's Gardens).  I will be recommending you to
the members of my geranium user group at our next meeting.

Received my order of three fancy leaved geraniums yesterday.

What beautiful plants, they arrived in excellent condition and took their places in our collection. I am sure they will acclimate easily – they are so robust.

Thanks you so much!

Hi Hobbs Farm,  I received the geraniums & scented I ordered yesterday and just wanted to tell you that they are gorgeous! The plants are very healthy and larger than I expected them to be. I appreciate that the packaging was very considerate and protective of the plants also. I also appreciate the fast delivery time, within a week of placing my order. I have them in a sunny window with some other geraniums - they are all doing very well and they smell wonderful. I am very pleased with my order and I definitely will be ordering more from you again. Thanks again, Theresa

i rec'd my lovely order today from Lorraine. i ordered 2 dozen
geraniums and everyone of them was in absolute perfect condition. not
even one broken leaf.

the prices are extremely reasonable, communication is excellent and
the packaging is wonderful. shipping instructions followed to the
"t". i'm not thinking you could ask for more from any company.

i would highly recommend hobbs farm and greenery to anyone looking
for geraniums. i most certainly will be a repeat customer!

I recieved 10 wonderful pelargoniums from this company. All were good representations of what I saw on their web page. They were packed well, and recieved very soon after I placed the order. I was so excited, I immediatly placed another order, and again, the plants are already on their way!

I have just received the order of geraniums from you. The plants were very well wrapped and packaged. Everything arrived in excellent condition. You are people that care about the plants, not just people selling plants like so many nurseries seem to be any more; and that I appreciate.. I hate going to nurseries after the spring rush and see plants not taken care of or dying. Thank you very much for the fast shipping. I plan to order from you again as varieties are available on your website. Again, thank you. John Anderson 5855 Wynnbrook Rd SW Canton, Oh 44706

I'M VERY HAPPY WITH MY SMALL ORDER AND AM ABOUT TO ORDER MORE PLANTS FROM HOBBS. THE PACKAGING WAS AMAZING (AS DESCRIBED IN ANOTHER FEEDBACK), AND EACH PLANT CAME WITH A HELPFUL INSTRUCTION SHEET. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HOBBS.

ON MAR 25, 2005, DEBCOOPER53 (MARYVILLE, MO) WROTE:

JUST RECEIVED MY ORDER OF 6 PLANTS. THEY ALL ARRIVED IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. EACH PLANT WAS IN A PLASTIC POT WITH SOIL. THE SOIL STAYED IN THE POT AS THEY TOOK THE TIME TO SURROUND THE POT IN A PLASTIC BAG....LEAVING THE PLANT ITSELF EXPOSED ABOVE THE PLASTIC. EACH POT WAS THEN PUT INSIDE A PAPER SHELTER FOR FURTHER INSULATION...THEN THE PLANTS WERE SURROUNDED BY SHIPPING PEANUTS. THE SHIPMENT ARRIVED WITHIN A FEW DAYS OF ME PLACING THE ORDER. JUST EXCELLENT!!! MOST DEFINITELY WOULD ORDER FROM THEM AGAIN.

I ORDERED 10 SCENTED-LEAF PELARGONIUM PLANTS FROM HOBBS FARM'S WEBSITE. TWELVE DAYS AFTER PLACING THE ORDER, I RECEIVED EMAIL NOTIFICATION THAT THE PLANTS HAD BEEN SHIPPED VIA USPS PRIORITY MAIL AND WOULD ARRIVE THE FOLLOWING DAY. ARRIVING WHEN PROMISED, THE WELL-ESTABLISHED PLANTS WERE SHIPPED IN SMALL PLASTIC POTS. THE POTS WERE WRAPPED IN PLASTIC BAGS, AND EACH PLANT WAS WRAPPED IN NEWSPAPER. NINE OF THE 10 ARRIVED IN VERY GOOD TO EXCELLENT CONDITION; THE 10TH, A VARIEGATED PLANT, HAD SUFFERED DURING SHIPMENT AND HAD MANY SOFT-TO-LIMP YELLOWING LEAVES. I LEFT THE PLANT IN INDIRECT LIGHT OVER THE WEEKEND TO TRY TO RECOVER, BUT BY MONDAY THE YELLOWING LEAVES WERE TURNING BROWN. I CONTACTED LORRAINE AT HOBBS FARM BY EMAIL THAT MONDAY MORNING. AS OF TUESDAY, I HADN'T HEARD BACK FROM HER, SO I CALLED HER ON THE PHONE. SHE WAS FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL; ONCE WE ESTABLISHED THAT THE FOLIAGE PROBLEM WAS NOT THE NORMAL CASTING OFF OF OLD LEAVES (AS IT WAS TOO EXTENSIVE AND ALSO INCLUDED NEW GROWTH), SHE OFFERED TO SEND OUT A REPLACEMENT RIGHT AWAY. SHE WAS TRUE TO HER WORD, AND THE REPLACEMENT PLANT ARRIVED IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. BASED ON THE EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THE OVERALL HIGH QUALITY OF THE PLANTS, I LOOK FORWARD TO DOING BUSINESS WITH HOBBS FARM AGAIN.

TODAY MY ORDER CAME IN THE MAIL. I MUST ADMIT I WAS REALLY SURPRISED. I FEEL I GOT MORE THEN MY MONEYS WORTH. I NEVER EXPECTED THE PLANTS TO BE THE SIZE THEY ARE. LAST YEAR I ORDERED FROM ANOTHER SEED CO. OUT OF OREGON. THERE LIVE PLANTS WERE THE SAME PRICE AS YOURS BUT NO WHERE CLOSE TO YOUR STANDARDS. I WILL BE ORDERING FROM YOU AGAIN NEXT YEAR. I ALSO WILL BE GIVING YOUR NAME TO ALL OF MY FRIENDS. THANK YOU J HALLOWELL WASHINGTON

: DEAR HOBBS FARM AND GREENERY I JUST WANTED TO THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SENDING MY PLANT ORDER SO QUICKLY. I WAS EXPECTING MY PLANTS TO ARRIVE IN A COUPLE OF WEEKS BUT THEY CAME IN ABOUT THREE DAYS! THANK YOU ALSO FOR SENDING GOOD-SIZED, HEALTHY SPECIMENS AND FOR THE CARE IN PACKAGING.

We take pride in our geraniums or pelargoniums here at Hobbs Farm and Greenery. This is why we propagate most all of our pelargoniums from our own stock plants, in this way we know that they are disease free and will thrive when received by our customers.
