I was sent a sad, dying tree
Please tell me I didn't just pay $200 for this sad, dying tree with a bunch of dead, dried of leaves, broken branches, and very droopy. Hopefully, when we plant it it will come back to life, but this is so disappointing. I guess that's what I get for ordering it online, huh? I would not recommend. I will update if this thing survives. How sad :(

        Green thumbs up!
        Still newly planted so haven’t seen the blooms. Arrived as expected, on time and properly handled. Plant pretty much looks just like the picture, planting was ABC…done. I’m just amazed that something I planted is not only alive but thriving.

            The tree sent was a good size, definitely within or better than the height range promised, but it wasn’t in great shape. Several branches had no leaves and were pretty stiff, lots of wilted leaves. It’s been in the ground over 3 weeks now and doesn’t seem to be improving so I’m not sure it’s going to survive. The Home Depot customer service team said I only have 90 days to return it so I’ll make a judgement call at that point if I think it’s going to live or not. It’s not a lot of time to get a good sense on such an expensive purchase.

              Beautiful Tree!
              First I'd like to start by saying how much I LOVE my lilac tree. It arrived in great condition and within 3 weeks of planting it, it is fuller and blooming! Can't wait to see it by end of summer. Since I've had it for 3 weeks now, I'm wondering if anyone can tell me what these little brown spots are? They just popped up in the past few days. Any ideas? I don't see any bugs on them. We did just mulch last week. It gets plenty of water and sunlight. Thanks!!

                Just arrived at my door steps!
                I was very impressed with how well they were packed into a sturdy box and shipment from the East coast took about 4 days with FedEx. Can’t wait to see hear bloom.

                      Looks good so far!
                      Received our tree yesterday and quickly put it in the ground. It came very quickly (2 days!), and looked pretty good. We are excited to see it bloom, but it was a perfect addition to finish our flower bed.

                        Love the way it was securely packaged and that (although it did need water) it was in excellent condition.

                              The lilac tree shipped a little earlier than expected due to the winter conditions here. It did appear to have a little leaf damage due to the extreme cold transit. I’m babying it and hopefully it will do fine.

                                Arrived with a few broken branches I believe from transit but looked good. Nice and tall. Just upsetting after planting this tree woke the next morning with the top snapped off. I've been looking forward to getting this tree for awhile now. Not sure what happened the rest of my trees look good.

                                    Our Lilac tree arrived healthy
                                    Our Lilac tree arrived healthy and green, and already had a few lilac blooms. We kept it inside a couple days to get past a late freeze, and then planted in the spot reserved. The blooms have persisted and increased a bit, so happy to see it still looks healthy and doing well. Looking forward to seeing this tree mature with more lilac blooms and fragrance in the future.

                                          The purchase experience was very good. It arrived fairly quickly. After less than 2 weeks post-planting, the tree is not doing well, despite adding compost and regular watering. Contacted them with pictures. Will see what they say.

                                            My best performing reblooming lilac!
                                            Lilac takes me back to my childhood. Spring on the farm was full of lilac my family planted 60 plus years ago. I never knew they made a reblooming lilac. I’ve since filled my garden with bloomerangs. The topiary I got from Brighter Blooms is not my biggest, I have older plants, but it is blooming the best! I planted it below my bedroom window and have looked out all summer at lilac! Love love love my bloomerang topiary! Worth the money to smell lilac all spring/summer/fall!

                                                    We're so sorry to hear how your lilac tree arrived this Spring! If you are still experiencing issues with your plants that we have not addressed yet please forward us some photos. One of our plant specialists will be happy to help!
                                                      So far so good
                                                      Took a little while to ship, but understandable that there is a back-log right now. Tree is in pretty good condition and have planted -- hope to see some growth soon!
