Would give 0 if I could. Places an order on 9 Nov 2024. Had no contact from the seller. I had to reach out twice and it took them over a week to get back to me. On 29 November they stated my order was shipped, which was not the case, only to find out that they were shipping the order on nine December. Also their website is nowhere up-to-date because they keep trying to defend delays in orders and shipping due to COVID-19. Would avoid this place as as much as possible.

If I could leave a negative stars I would. My complaint is just as all the others so I won’t go into details but I would emphasize that I paid a $7.99 fee to have dead trees replaced. After losing $175 they socked me for another $7.99 promising to ship trees. This company has terrible reviews from the BBB and didn’t even respond to my complaint through the BBB. I am getting in contact with the TN attorney general’s office for further direction because very few customers have anything good to say. This company should be made to close its doors due to its scamming of customers.

Yes...Avoid At All Costs
This is complaint I sent to TN BBB. June 25, 2024 we ordered a Wahington Howthorn tree from Green Thumbs Garden online, Order#22383. After numerous complaint about shipment delays, we finallyreceived a dead tree on August 2, 2024. We have exchanged over 26 emails with Bre S. and Lisa (assume they are customer service reps) regarding the fact that the tree was dead and set pictures at their request and gave the tree they sent another three weeks to verify is was not producing any buds or leaves. At first, Bre S. agreed to replace the tree if we would pay another $7.99 replacement shipping fee...we agreed but, requests for instructions onhow to proceed never came despite our numerous requests and no replacement ever arrived. After additional complaint,on October 17, 2024, a different rep, Lisa, who was very apologetic, replied that they would send a replacement and waive that additional shipping fee and a promise to ship it"next week". Since then, nothing. We have sent numerous emails in following up but only getting "canned" responses that their email system returned saying that they would respond within 3 business days. I have also called several times. Their automated answering system requesting a reason for the call, a phone number, and promise to reply within 3 days...nothing. In my last email and phone to them I did specify that I would be reporting them to BBB and/or to the Tennessee Consumer Protection Agency if they did not repsond within 3 days...that was yesterday. The phone number on their website that I used is (931) 450-3577...you could call and get the same canned message. All we want now is a refund. I do have all of our email correspondencesif that helps you but forwarding those would be an EML file and cannot be attached here. I would probably need an email address to forward it to you. Please let me know how or whether you can help resolve this. Sent to TN BBB 11/22/2024

Avoid This Company At All Costs
Ordered 6 fruit trees that arrived the end of August. I immediately opened the box and 5 trees had no leaves and 1 had only a couple. No leaves were in the box meaning they shipped these trees in terrible shape. I immediately contacted Green Thumbs Garden and was told to "Keep an Eye On Them." I planted them in large tree pots and kept them near our garden where I could make sure they were well watered and babied. Well 2 re-grew leaves, 3 completely died and the last I am not sure if it will make it. Contacted Green Thumbs (same person who told me to just keep an eye on them) just to be informed it was "Outside the Return Window." Very deceptive and shameful way to treat customers. Thankfully I only ordered a few trees to see the quality of thier product. Their loss because I will be putting in an orchard next year. Just buy from Lowes, Home Depot, Tractor Supply, etc. They are about 40% less expensive and actually alive when you get them.

Order never fulfilled
Ordered plants in February to be shipped after frost date for my zone. after the due date, I repeatedly email asking where the order was, and was told there were delays, but would be shipped in the next few days. This occurred repeatedly over a month. I finally had to submit a dispute to my credit card company. Submitting a copy of all the emails I received, they refunded me immediately.

Order Never Arrived
Order Never Arrived
Called for a refund only to get an answering machine. Was told several times via email items were being "shipped today or tomorrow." Highly questionable company. Had to dispute with credit card company.

They sent me a link to review the plant…
They sent me a link to review the plant - The plant showed up dead and dry in a box, and when I went to review their plant, I gave it a star out of five - they deleted it, right away, which means that their "Reviews" are all lies. I'll never get my money pack, but I hope people will see this and never order from this company.
