Great customer service

There was a glitch with my order--the wrong plants arrived due to mislabeling. But customer service took care if it promptly, sending out the correct order within a few days. The plants that arrived were beautiful and healthy. Will order more from this business. I'd have given 5 stars if not for the mix-up.
