I find little to no information about them,and in these day and ages with all the scams...idk
BUT it's such a good price!

yes you get two plants for 10.00 but you do have to pay 8.90 shipping and handling..

I can go to lows or home depot and pick up a plant in the pot for under $10

 

[robbobbin]

But then they say you get a 3rd plant free-so it's really 3 plants for 18.95, unless it's a scam-or tiny little rootless sprigs...
I was hoping someone knew if they were reputable??
Thanks for your input, I was worried I was alone here. hehehe

Howdy!
It sounded way too good to be true, and they don't put any sort of zone information on the site, that I could find. So ... I started puttering around. Yep, they are a branch of (duh nuh!) Gardener's Choice! Those same people who brought you the Topsy-Turvey, the Tree Tomato, and a host of other kinda good/kinda useless garden stuff is the company behind the Giant Blueberry.
Is this bad? Well, I wouldn't chance it, but I know the plants wouldn't grow here. Should you? Well, they do promise that the shrubs will be at least 6 feet tall by the end of summer and you have a 30 day money-back guarantee. I have heard that you need to save *all* packing and packaging to claim anything, though.

Meier's has them for $5/plant now. Plus you can inspect it to see if it's dead or alive.

Meijer? Not our Meijer...but maybe walmart. I checked the nursery and they wanted $16 a plant.

 

[seedcorn]

they were the bare root ones. Haven't checked the Ft. Wayne ones as I was at Muncie store when I saw them.

 

[smom1976]

my lowes had them for 6 something a plant.. so lets be safe and say 7

 

[robbobbin]

Lowe's it is. I get a 10% discount there from my master gardener association. 10% ain't much-but every little bit...
Especially since I went ahead and ordered some Brunswick from Gurneys AND some KA_BLUEY!!!

I'm very excited to try the Ka-Bluey bushes. Paid $20 a piece for them. They're suppose to be the best blueberry EVER!
