Nice plants

The customer service is great, and the plants are really nice and healthy.

From Laura | May 18, 2022

First time corn growers

My husband always wanted to grow corn our garden so I ordered some. They arrived in excellent shape and have been in the garden for almost two weeks. They have doubled in size. Can’t wait to see if we actually get corn we can eat for dinner. Looks very promising!!!!

EASILY ADAPTED TO MY LARGE RAISED BED

Placed the two plants in the ground. One thrives. The other struggled and died. My first time trying to plant corn.

Great plant and great service

Great! We received out order in a timely manner. Everything about order and shipment was easy and well communicated. In fact, our first shipment got delayed due to a USPS error and corn arrived dead. GrowJoy immediately sent a replacement. We planted as instructed and it is doing well. It's a new planting so no corn yet but it seems like it will do well. Looking forward to a delicious crop soon!

My order of Cabbage, Strawberry, Broccoli, Kale, Squash, Watermelon, and Corn were delivered in very healthy plants doing the right season. This company is the best of all nurseries I've dealt with.

Bodacious Sweet Corn plants came quickly and in good order. I put them in the ground when they arrived and they have really taken off. I expect them to do very well...thank you again for a fast, accurate and well done job GrowJoy! I will continue to do business with you because of the trust developed over the years.

Bodacious Sweet Corn Plant

I can only hope the corn tastes as good as the plants look. They arrived in such good strong shape. I love to see how much care you take in shipping these wonderful plants.

Bodacious Sweet Corn Plant

The Corn plants I purchased are now doing well. They weren't in the best shape when they arrived at my house. Half the leaves were dead but I watered them immediately and planted them the same night and they rebounded. I have to say I was disappointed in the packing - inside the plant box someone put a heavy bottle of air freshener which crushed the plants - probably why the leaves were half brown. All in all I am happy with my purchase.
