By Sharon June 29, 2015 | Wild Iris Rows I stood on a little knoll and looked around me. It was like nothing I'd ever seen, acres and acres of color spread out like a treasured old patchwork quilt made of random shapes and sizes. It was pieced together with strips of green and shades of brown that gently covered the rolling hills. It was an iris farm and every plant seemed to be blooming in glorious color!

4 plants purchased so far from the greenhouse. 100% satisfaction. Ask me any questions.
I purchased the following and was pleased with them Dianthus Early Bird Fizzy Dianthus Early Bird Sherbet Dianthus Passion Dianthus Romance Dianthus Rosy Cheeks Dianthus Ruby's Tuesday Dianthus Scent First Coral Reef Dianthus Sugar Plum All of them did well besides Scent First Coral Reef, so I emailed Santa Rosa Gardens and the customer service was going to send me another onem but they found out they had run out of that stock, and I was able to choose another one, which was called Pop Star. I would definitely recommend them because they were quick in responding to my e-mail and provided great customer service. I even offered to take a picture of the dianthus Scent First Coral Reef, but the customer service agent said I didn't have to.
I've been a long-time customer of Tranquil Lake. Their plants are healthy and beautiful, and all customer service interactions with them are easy and pleasant. I highly recommend them.
I've been ordering my bulbs from Van Engelen for probably 20 years now. In my zone 4B garden, I treat tulips as annuals, and I don't skimp on the quantities I plant. After our long, cold, very white winters, I need big bursts of color in the spring. I've always been more than satisfied with the quality of Van Engelen bulbs, and their customer service is wonderful. I recommend them without reservation.
Paul at Slightly Different Nursery is an angel. His personality is engaging, his customer service is impeccable, and his day lilies are amazing. He was especially understanding and helpful to me during a particularly difficult time when we were choosing a daylily for my father. I cannot recommend him enough.
We keep growing, because ATP is where all the excitement is these days! Check out these numbers from last week:
