I would NEVER buy plants from a shopping channel. Go to a nursery so you can SEE what you're buying. Plants from a nursery are MUCH BETTER QUALITY than those QVC sells.

Not necessarily.

I have purchased many beautiful and thriving plants from both Cottage Farms, Roberta's and Phillip Watson.

They have varieties NOT sold at my local nurseries.

No diff than ordering from catalogs, which we have also done w/ great success.

I have had many plants die that were purchased locally, AND you don't get any guarantees unless THEY plant them for you.

Vendors with QVC GIVE warranties.

WRONG. The nurseries where I buy my plants DO give guaratees when I plant them. I have seen the SAME varieties that QVC sells at the nurseries that I buy from.

@layla2450, absolutely not wrong.  Maybe wrong for YOU and YOUR LOCATION but not everywhere.

I can even go so far as to guarantee that many locations do not even have local plant nurseries let alone ones with the range of varieties offered on Q.

They have a map showing shipping dates for years.

I won't be buying anymore online plants. The last two springs, I purchased. Both times I had to call and replace those that didn't make it. Then, the replacements didn't make it. I babied them along for several months, and it wasn't me. Yes, they do stand by and replace, but that could go on forever.  

I've had better luck at the grocery store.
