I have used Digging Dog in the past with success but was very let down with this recent attempt. I placed an order back in early April - was told in May that I would need to wait until June for it to be ready to ship. I was fine with that. Then I never heard another word. I emailed and called several times for an update with no response. Then today I called and finally spoke to someone about my order. They had crop failure (fine - I understand that as a gardener) and my order would not be available until August. I gave up and cancelled. My 1-star review has nothing to do with the plants - it is simply the lack of customer service and communication on their end that was truly disappointing.

I am thoroughly happy with my recent purchase of 2 varieties of Aruncus and crambe maritima. The plants were healthy upon the fast shipping arrival, I will be ordering from them again to NJ....although shipping is not cheap the varities and knowledge of their plants makes up for the cost of not finding many of their plants locally.

Plants are strong, healthy and clearly in perfect condition. They are esteemed in our garden.

This nursery is CLOSED to 'walk-in' business. We drove 90 minutes to be greeted with a sign saying they are currently only doing on-line/mail orders.

Outstanding selection of hard to find plants, fast delivery, well packed, and excellent quality, size, & health. What more can anyone ask for? I have ordered numerous times. Most recent ordered arrived 9/22/2022. Very pleased with entire purchase from ordering online to delivery. Was especially delighted to see they use biodegradeable packing peanuts and not those annoying environment destroying styrofoam ones.

Wanted to find a west coast plant nursery to order from, so I could have more variety than my local nursery and the ease of shopping from home. They have a great selection of perennials for my planting zone and their customer service is great. Plants came well wrapped, tagged and packaged with care. The box looked old and tired due to shipping/handling, but all the plants inside were fine. I ordered a large quantity of plants and only one plant started to show signs of oncoming doom so I pulled it from the garden and potted it, only to find moles were tunneling around the roots. The plant survived. I have free moles to good homes if interested. I do wish they had more pictures of plants in their website and catalog. I will order from them again.

An absolutely fantastic Nursery. They have become my go-to, since they have the best combination of beautiful and often unusual plants, more than fair prices (their plants are always the largest amongst the nurseries I have frequented) and price!I garden for about ten people, and I move them away from garden centers because they simply do not have the variety, the quality, and the rocking customer service that Digging Dog has.One of the best things - if a plant is out of stock, you are able to ask to be alerted. I just was alerted to a relatively rare hydrangea.They are the BEST!!!!!

I ordered 3 different types of plants, 3 of each. The Astilbe is tiny but 2 of the 3 survived. the Hollyhock and Diascia arrived in horrible condition and all died soon after being planted. I am an avid gardener. I did my best to nurse them back to health but it was hopeless. It didn't look like the plants were damaged in transit but rather were very poor specimens to begin with. I ordered plants from 3 other mail order companies this spring and they all arrived perfectly. I wrote to Digging dog to tell them what happened but they never responded.

Over the years I have bought many plants from digging dog. I first learned about them at the flower and garden show. I love their plants and have never minded paying the extra for the plants.However I placed an ordered on January 28th and am still waiting for that order. I sent several email requests for updates but did not get a response. My husband called last week and whomever he spoke to said she had been in contact with me and forwarded him the "string of emails" as she stated. The String consisted of my order email. He was informed that my order would ship on May 4th. Thus far I have not had an email letting me know if the plants shipped or not. I just reached back out for an update.This will be the last order I send them and for those other gardeners that I turned you on to this nursery-i am sorry.

This nursery has a wonderful selection of plants, including hard-to-find varieties. My order shipped faster than I expected and the plants arrived in excellent condition.

I was looking for a very particular plant that NO ONE has in stock it seems...accept these guys! They were very careful to warn me that buying plants in the winter will result in plants that might be dormant. Very thoughtful to remind people of this so they aren't shocked when their plants arrive in less than amazing condition haha!Their prices are very competitive! I purchased a Melianthis Major (Honeybush) and a few Horsetail plants. They package their plants in a way that they literally have zero chance of being damaged during shipping. I was very impressed and thankful! I'll be purchasing from them again for sure!

Best mail order nursery in the states! Fast shipping and great prices for hard to find perennials, grasses and shrubs. If you get a chance to visit the nursery the grounds are amazingly beautiful and they have planted borders so you can see what most of the plants look like at their full grown potential! The staff is very helpful and the owners are kind and knowledgeable and very involved! 10 out of 10 would try again!

I ordered 2 clematis from these people. The plants arrived well packaged, and were griwing in transit.I planted these vines, and in less than 2 weeks, they are thriving. Ive tried other online nurseries that I would not give you 2 cents for, but this nursery is superb!

Greatest mail order nursery for unusual plants. An incredible selection and a wonderful catalog. All the plants are first rate. I would visit if I was ever in Albion, CA.
