My most recent activity with Doyle

My most recent activity with Doyle, was to replace a plant that died. There was no hassle, no long explanation, just an email with the order number and the next day I got an email saying the replacement was being shipped!

They arrived nice and green and long beautiful starts. However, my ground is way too cold for them to get a good start before it freezes and we wanted to have a good start so I looked up how to store them for the winter and I’ve got them with my hydrangeas, waiting for spring.

Best service ever!!

The service I received was better than I expected. When the first cutting died after transplant, Doyle's sent me another as soon as I told them, and without grilling me on what I may have done wrong. This second cutting seems to be growing nicely! Thank you!!

They stood by their guarantee and replaced the plants that perished for us. Plus they answered our questions about growing the Blackberries. Super friendly and super helpful people. We can't wait to see them grow next year.

Good customer service, bad timing.

While the customer service is good, no matter where I plant these on my property in North Daktoa, they die. On top of that, they keep sending me random replacements with no notice and each time they show up when im going to be away from home for a couple weeks. This results in plants that have been sealed in their packages for 2-3 weeks or more before opening them.

Plant has been flourishing

I planted my little stick right after it arrived. They provided excellent instructions for success and that baby has grown already in only a few months. Fingers crossed I have fruit next year!

I had two that didn't make it and you sent beautiful replacements without me asking for it. I would do business with you any day and always will. Thank you for having such beautiful plants and for being such a great company.
