These started growing almost immediately and after about a month, i already have a few strawberries.

FIVE STAR!!! Wow

Wow I’m highly impressed with how the strawberries made it to South Florida in such great condition! They were moist and thriving. I would highly recommend this company. I just got 7 different plants and they are all looking fantastic and ready for my garden. Thank you so much to the GrowJoy team!

Strawberries are fine some other plants weren't

The plants just showed up today, but they looked fairly good overall. We'll see how they do over the next few days. I ordered two strawberry types and some tendersweet carrots which arrived healthy, a radish that looked pretty yellow and sad, a crimson sweet watermelon that looks well, and a sugar baby watermelon that showed up with its leaves broken off- I'm hoping it survives, but it doesn't look likely right now.

Flavorfest Strawberries

The plant arrived in excellent condition....thriving very well in the container. Can't wait until my first berry grows!

Healthy Plants

Arrived healthy and grew well, but with minimal production. This isn't surprising consider its the first year, but time will tell.

From Ty | July 09, 2021


Seem to be Growing and Surviving

The Strawberry plants arrived strong and healthy and are growing well in the planters box. Due to the extremely late delivery I cannot speak to whether they will produce any berries and I will have to wait until next year but the plants are in good shape and I am confident that they will product many berries next year. This is by far the best of the GrowJoy purchase.
