The Green Pages: White Flower Farm (E-Commerce Companies)

I've been getting variegated impatiens from White Flower Farm for several years and they have done amazingly well. I've also received gift cards for them, and find them super easy to use through their well-organized and informative website.

Being Amaryllis obsessed, I visit White Flower Farms' website often. They have a fairly good selection, including some bulbs that are difficult to find. I do recommend buying your bulbs early, as some of the more desirable Amaryllis bulbs sell out.

I bought three centaurea cinerarias from WFF last year. They were a little spindly when they arrived, but certainly healthy plants. By mid-summer they were flourishing and blooming all over the place. Even now, in all day shade they've had a few blooms on them. I am extremely happy with this purchase and will definitely buy more plants from White Flower Farm. Service and shipping times were exactly as advertised - no surprises at all. Very satisfied.

In mid-February, I ordered 8 Amaryllis bulbs from White Flower Farm. The bulbs arrived in one box with each bulb in a small brown bag with 'id stick' to use at planting. Each bulb was firm, heavy, with wonderful root structure. My plan was to give one the bulbs to my sister-in-law who has also contracted "amaryllis-itis." Unfortunately, the bulb I gave her was mislabeled and they were out of stock on the one I ordered. I almost didn't get a chance to tell the operator what the problem was! I received a very genuine apology; a note that as soon as the fall bulbs were received I would have 2 sent to my home to replace hers and one for me for the trouble.

I almost didn't write this review because the interaction with White Flower Farm was due to a problem, but I think that gardeners need to know how customer service is handled. In this case, it was handled most graciously in 5 minutes or less! Their products are not cheap, but you get the quality you pay for. This applies to every interaction with the staff, including answering questions that show my gardener naiveté.

Their bulbs can't be called cheap, but you can be sure of being a happy customer.
