    Very small but alive
    I first purchased a Bloomerang from my local nursery last year. It bloomed so well this year that my mom wanted one. My local nursery no longer sells them so I had to go online. The 1 gallon is very small (7” max) for $40. I am disappointed but at least it’s alive and has many leaves. FedEx also threw it on my porch sideways. We’ll see how it does when my mom plants it. For me it seems too expensive for the size…It is May and I’m in MA.

        Highly impressed
        Just received my Lilac today & am so excited at how great it arrived. I can not wait until it gets flowers I hope in the spring. I work for HD & hear horror stories of plants shipped via carrier & must say Proven Winners is who I will recommend when customers ask about plants being shipped

          Very nice
          I bought two of these. They arrived in great shape and blossomed this spring. The flowers lasted quite a while.

            Beautiful lilac tree
            This arrived so fast! And it was in beautiful condition. The only issue was it was upside down in the box. The box said this side up but that wasnt the way the plant was facing.

            perfect lilac
            My lilac arrived with lots of leaves and a flower. Very happy with my purchase, can't wait to plant and enjoy the beautiful flowers. Even with only 1 flower it smells amazing.

              The size and quality of the item did not match my expectation for the price I paid. I could have picked out prettier, bigger items at the store. Very disappointed in this product.

                    Very scrawny skimpy plants arrived from my mail order so at 30$ plus each, but looking like 6.99 ones at best, I returned them to the store.

                    If in season for you. This is a great plant. I am however at the edge of it's warmer limits. I planted in full sun for the morning hoping that will keep it cooler in our hot season. It's already doubled it's size in a month. Had some small flowers on it already too. I used the pot as a guide to see it when I mow the yard.

                      Lilac plant died after planting and no sign of life
                      I bought this plant last year as I am huge proven winners fan. I have loads of their plants in my garden. But this time I was disappointed with this lilac plant from Proven winners and Laura from Garden Answer. I planted it last year in full sun location with similar another bloomerang lilac from PV, The other one survived and is flourishing well, But this plant died and there is no sign of life this year. Very disappointing...

                        I ordered this product online, and it came in perfect condition and in good time. I will update the review when our new baby lilac tree has had time to grow.

                          6 inch stick
                          I was really looking forward to having this beautiful plant in my garden, but it was so small , just a single 6 inch stick with a few buds and no leaves that I was afraid it would not grow. I thought it best to return as other reviews said their plants died. It might have been better to oder in spring. I am disappointed .

                          Although only in their first season, the bloomerangs are a wonderful addition to my garden. They are doing very well, and they bloomed nicely in early spring. We will see if they bloom a second time this year.

                          The plant arrived in excellent shape, nice size, well established root system, and thus transplanted into ground well. In just a few days it actually started opening buds that were on it when it arrived. I have ordered quite a few things now from Home Depot that are from the Proven Winners line and every one has been highly satisfactory--packed well, well established root system n the pots, and ready to grow. I much prefer them to other growers shipping bare root. Too many failures with those. These come small but in pots with soil and I think that makes all the difference to them surviving shipping and then doing very well when planted.

                              I was quite surprised, the shrub was a nice size, about 2 feet tall and nicely package for no damage. There are no flowers yet, but because of the the size I gave it 5 star rating. Hopefully it will grow and I will see blooms. I'm very excited to see it bloom as it's supposed to bloom throughout the spring and into early fall unlike an ordinary lilac that blooms only once in early spring. I will update you on their progress.

                              I was expecting a healthy medium sized plant to be delivered to my home... I was shocked when a fully blooming large Bloomerang Lilac emerged from the shipping box in perfect condition. This plant exceeded my expectations from the start! It has been growing well during the two months I've had it.
