"I was very intimidated at first to create a garden in front of my house. I have ordered the preplanned shady nook to learn how they planned out the garden. First of all, everything arrived in healthy and beautiful shape. It was easy to figure out how to space the plants and plant them. Armed with this knowledge, I bravely ordered more plants and successfully planted them."

Turned my black thumb green
"We are "very beginner" gardeners and have never been able to grow anything before this and have always wanted a "yard in a box " Delighted to find American Meadows and specifically this offering, perfect for the far corner of our backyard. Everything has come up great with the exception of 2 out of 3 of the Solomon's Seal. Still 90% success ain't bad! Seems to not need much maintenance and changing daily. We are delighted any way and winning the #sweepstakes would make our positive experience even better!"

Highly recommend
"I was super happy with this shade garden. It arrived with very healthy start plants and the bare roots are coming in nicely!! Now I'm just waiting for my hummingbird garden plants to arrive… communication has kind of stopped and this week was supposed to be shipping week. I will call customer service tomorrow!!! All in all very happy"

Very satisfied with my experience
"Overall very satisfied. Products are small and delicate when they arrive so please read the instructions. Also be patient as I did have some delayed growth but eventually everything I ordered group and is quite healthy."
— Joe (5/5)
The drawing pictured above is what inspired me!
"I purchased this product at the end of March, planted them right away using "Raised garden bed" soil straight from our local nursery. I will nurse these plants until maturity, 1-3 years in the raised garden and transfer to my 10'x10' garden space once my soil pH is corrected to a 6. 5. The ground was so solid, algae thriving and making the surface slippery. Thank you American Meadows, I'm so excited to see my healthy new garden 2024!"

Average Product
"I planted this shade garden and have been mostly successful with it. ALL of the Bleeding Hearts died. I've had some trouble with squirrels and rabbits eating the new plants, but have remedied that. I will need to replace the Bleeding Hearts next spring."
— Teach (3/5)
I love it. Great suggestions on plants that worked so well!
"I have an open space that I was not sure on what to plant. With this suggestions, it worked so well for my garden. Love this idea!"
— Dinna (5/5)

— TESS (5/5)
So Impressed
"First time ordering plants/bare roots, so my expectations were low and it will take time, but wow! I've had this garden planted for almost two weeks now, so amazed at everything taking off so quickly, my bleedheart is about 12 inches tall already, and full of blooms! Hostas are showing foliage now and nettle is blooming!"
