I placed a small first order of hostas. I received well-rooted, well-packed plants. Communications and tracking were great. Will order again.
Ordered some lilium species seeds via email. Judith is friendly and very helpful. Had no issues shipping to Australia.
Always my first area to browse at the garden center - interesting selections, all neonicotinoid-free, so safe for bees & butterflies.
Excellent experience doing business with The Sempervivum Patch! Beautiful, healthy plants delivered super fast! I will most definitely be back for more!
