Cucumber came well shipped

The cucumber leaves turned around when the sun came out that next day and the plant is doing really good and today I pot of the plant and I was really excited we used to eat a lot of cucumbers as family and my recommendation that you put a steak behind the plant to support the plant as it's growing and I will buy plants from you again and i well never buy plants or flowers from Walmart again and grown joy had the healthy plants and my husband was happy that the plant was doing great from the shipment and leaf turn around fast next day and thank you for shipping the plant and we where looking forward to seeing the plant and the plant got here fast thanks again

Plant poor/Customer Service Excellent

I have used GrowJoy before and always had good experiences. The cucumber plant arrived in poor condition and died within 2 days. I contacted the Customer Care and Tina Miller was wonderful in working with me and providing credit on my account. The plants I purchased with the credit arrived in great condition.

Sweet Slice Cucumber (Live Plant)

This Sweet Slice Cucumber is a replacement plant. Because the first one I received died about a week after planting it. I called GrowJoy and told them what occurred with the first plant they sent. And they sent out a replacement right away. The replacement plant is growing great. This has been the first year that I have ordered from GrowJoy and so far have been completely satisfied with their products and service.

Wow, these Cucumber plants were huge! They certainly look wonderful! Maybe by planting these beauties, I'll get cukes that much earlier this year! If all my plants continue to look this great, I can't imagine how much we'll harvest!

Healthy and well packaged. Sweet Slice seems to be going well so far!

From anonymous | May 31, 2013

Great!!

I bought the Sweet Slice Cucumber Plant for my mom as a Mother's Day gift. I live 8 hours away, so it was very convenient to be able to purchase this online and have it shipped directly to her. According to her, they arrived in great condition. They were a bit dry, but that's going to be a given for any plant that is being mailed. Once she watered the plants, they perked right up. She planted them in the ground a few days later and so far, so good! These plants were much cheaper too than other potted vegetable plants I've seen at places like Home Depot or gardening stores. I would definitely recommend this product!

Cucumber Plant delivery

After being less than happy about the cost and vitality of another major deliverer, I went searching for another source for "live" plants and I am way more than satisfied by the size and the health of what was ordered and delivered. I will repeat orders here next year!
