Trees were very small…not even 12 inches tall.
Trees were very small. Definitely not what I expected. These trees will take too long to get to where I need them to be.

    Way undersized
    These are advertised as 12-24 inches tall but as many reviews have stated, actually came well under 12.

      Small Dwarf Alberta Spruce
      I didn’t want to wait until the fall for my dwarf Alberta Spruce to show up in the garden center, so I took a chance on these. Two of them were shipped in one 12x14x7” cardboard box. The flower pots were each seven inches tall. One tree was 7” and one was 8” and shrink wrapped in the pot to make it fit. I guess I should have waited. I planted them anyway since they had a lot of new growth.

            Ordered this tree mthe first week of November. The plant was described as being between 12 and 24 inches tall at the cost of $30 plus. During the first week of December there was still no deliver and the track your order no longer worked. Home Depot was very helpful and checked into it and promised a refund, still waiting. The product did finally arrive at the end of December and was less than 6” what can best be described as, Charlie Brown’s Christmas tree for a cat.

            What a joke
            Tree is about 5 inches high in a 1/2 gallon container. What a joke. Hope I can return as I was expecting a 1 ft specimen at least for that price.

              Disappointed customer
              Ordered tree in November and just received it Dec. 15. Size was stated as 1 gal. and pot is 6 " across and plant is 4 " tall. Add states at least 12-24" tall. Not worth $30.

                Feint yard work
                We ordered this tree and I originally thought it would be bigger, but that was my fault. We are planting it in a built Flower pot in our front yard and can't wait to decorate it each holiday. Very fast delivery and the packaging was perfect.

                  Nice tree
                  I received my tree about a month ago. It requires very little maintenance and smells nice. It doesn't look quite like it does in the picture, it started out maintaining the shape of the box it came in. It is looking better with time. Overall I am satisfied with my purchase and still think it will look more like the picture with more time. I would recommend this tree.

                    Small but looks healthy
                    My Dwarf Alberta Spruce arrived on time, packaged well, looking healthy. Was a little smaller than I had imagined....about 12 inches. Hopefully it will thrive and grow!!

                      Exactly what I have been looking for! Came packaged well and soil was still moist from being shipped out 5 days ago. They are great starter in landscaping, they are not mature and stand about 18 inches out of the ground.

                        This shrub came in well wrapped and in good looking shape as described exceeding my expectations. With a few days of rain it is now thriving. Can't wait for it to continue to grow

                        Good tree
                        The tree isn't that large and came in a sealed cardboard box. Once opened, it seemed like a nice product.

                          Arrived in good shape but remove it from the shipping box as soon as it arrives.

                          The package was wrapped perfectly and shipped quickly. The quality of the Tree is great! These make a perfect addition in my garden.

                            Dissapointed
                            I don't know what was worse, the more than 20 days delayed or the dry and tiny trees that I have received. They were wrapped and sent in a sealed box with no ventilation.

                              It was not as advertised—barely 8” tall, and for the price? I returned it to Home Depot!
