I placed an order for fall plants, and didn't hear back about shipping for a while. I emailed asking if I could cancel because it was getting late in the season, then that lit a fire under them because they printed the label a few hours later and then responded right after said label was printed to say sorry, it can't be canceled because the label was already printed for shipping. That's just dishonest. I won't be using them again.

I ordered clover and wildflowers in May. Great experience. I received an email stating that my order was shipped within 2 days of ordering. So I reordered...this time? Its been 2 weeks and nothing. I've contacted them 3 times and got the same response...sorry this happened, we'll check on it. I contacted them again today adding that I could've driven to Vermont quicker. Supposedly they are issuing a refund. We'll see how long that takes. I won't be ordering anything from them again

I ordered 50 packets of seeds for distribution at a memorial service in special ordered envelopes. The order details indicated that they would ship the very next day. Eight days later I received an email saying that they're out of stock and cancelling my order and completely leaving me in the lurch. So, if you actually want or need something then I wouldn't order from this site.

Placed an order for 36 karley rose fountain grass (two containers - 18 pots ea) in March. One container was delivered yesterday (05-04-2023). Called on the other container and was told that it was a fulfillment error, and sorry, but no more product is available. Now, we are on the hunt for 18 more plants, which are now about twice the price, if available. American Meadows was happy to provide a refund, but it might not be available for two/three weeks. Don't think they will get my business again.

They don't honor their guarantee. Sell you product that doesn't grow and replace it with another dead item and keep your money. Supervisors are busy and customer service reps take you information and pretend a Supervisor will call you to discuss your concerns, but they don't.

Their advertised pots of 3 in are only 1 in diameter and 3 high. What a rip off

Ordered Seeds, $715 WORTH! American Meadows created label but NEVER delivered the seeds. Had to call my credit card company for them to reverse the charge. STAY AWAY! SCAM COMPANY!
