They love the sun

These plants really did well in my sunny garden. Such a bright splash of color!

From Carol | July 16, 2022

Beautiful

Plants arrived in great condition and even had some buds that are now blooming!

Strong plants, great packaging

This is my second order with GrowJoy and I couldn't be more excited to have found them. The plants are strong, and are extremely well packaged. You really won't fully believe what I'm saying until you place your first order with them and open the box when it arrives. I am very impressed!

Big, bold, bright

These babies shot up to 3 feet and were covered with big, brilliant flowers almost before I could blink. The flowers last for weeks, the bees and butterflies love them. Total win.

Beautiful Crazy Straw

I purchased four of these plants, they are absolutely stunning. With the exception of one stem, the heads seek the sun. A strong wind blew one stem over and before I had time to brace it, started growing upwards. The plants have been entertaining in the way they have grown. There will always be Zinnias in my garden

As Advertised!

This single plant arrived almost before I finished the transaction and I planted it immediately. The plant arrived in one of the most secure and protected package I have ever seen - amazing to see such attention to a single flower and speaks to the quality of GrowJoy a company I found online. The plant is thriving and I can't wait to see it bloom. My camera is primed and ready for a great photo shoot Please stay tuned.
