Greenwood Nursery Review
Greenwood Nursery's grade stayed the same a last month at a C-. Greenwood Nursery is located in McMinnville, TN.
Greenwood Nursery seems to list all products on their category pages regardless if they are in stock and available to sell. That creates a bit of confusion as you scroll through a category page. If you go to their evergreen shrubs page it appears they have a couple of products listed twice. We opened both listings into separate tabs and couldn't see anything different. Must just be some sort of glitch with the website. We originally mentioned this five months ago and it hasn't been fixed.
Greenwood Nursery was first registered in 2000, that gives them a 10 rating for years in business. They seem to have a decent selection of evergreen trees & shrubs. The issue is we don't know how many of them are actually in-stock. We spot checked clicking on quite a few products and they were out of stock. It's too time consuming to click each product to find out what's available. That got old fast.
They seem to mostly carry sizes from a quart to 1 gallon containers.
Their site isn't the easiest to get around on. Greenwood Nursery content for product pages is thin compared to others. They do offer a pretty comprehensive list of planting instructions and helpful gardening resources.
It was hard to find any reviews for Greenwood Nursery. It took some digging but we eventually found 15 Google customer reviews for Greenwood Nursery with a 4.3 out of 5 rating. You can view their Google reviews here.
Here's Greenwood's guarantee: Greenwood’s Stress Free Guarantee on evergreen plant varieties are shipped healthy, growing and ready for planting. Once received and no further reports have been filed with us within 48 hours of carrier delivery, plants are considered accepted. Evergreen plants that do not survive within the first year planted may be replaced at half current regular pricing plus shipping.
It's also the first guarantee that had its own disclaimer page. Not saying whether that's good or bad, just unique.
What were the red flags?
- Ship costs are a bit high, especially with the smaller sizes they sell. 20% and higher.
- We didn't see many product reviews. Just seems odd for a site that's been active since 2000.
- Greenwood Nursery reviews online are hard to find. Just seems odd that they don't have a lot more online reviews.
