Customer Reviews for VAN ZYVERDEN Lilac Purple Root Stock (1-Set)

Received these and only got a twig wrapped in 5 pounds of soil. Total dissapoint. Waste of money

I received 1 stick with a few green leaves on it. Who in their right mind sells sticks for this price??

The lilacs arrived nicely packaged, each root ball was in a plastic bag (the dirt was on the dry side), I removed the plants putting them in a pail of water to soak for awhile before planting in the ground. Within days one bush was budding out with new leaves, within a week all of them were producing leaves. We are in zone 7, which from what I have read is marginal for these lilac to produce spring time blooms, but I have my fingers crossed.

One is holding on the other two are dead.

It’s getting more leaves every day!! I’m so excited to see it grow!

Little sticks are sprouting leaves. Seems it will take forever to get blooms.

It was just a stick with some roots when I got it and now I have a bunch of leaves growing on it.

Liked the bag with soil not just roots box too short so trunk and 1st leaves bent over and didn’t straighten.Main issue ordered from Huntsville TX but this Lilac does Not bloom or is suited to Zone 8. Not clearly evident or wouldn’t order

They are not growing at all.

Stuck them in the ground, and the buds opened in three days. Looks like they are going to do great.

Bought 4 of these last year .. all good. This new one is doing just as well.

We are waiting to see if the plants survive. They seem to be growing a little so I am hopeful the can survive our climate. The ad said zone 9 but the delivery paper said zone 8. I am hopeful.

They come as little roots about 2 inches high.

The order arrived on time and in excellent condition. The lilac root stock was budding with tiny leaves when the landscaper planted it. Only time will tell whether or not they survive and thrive.

I never got the lilac bushes that I really really wanted. They said that I got them but I didn’t. They never offered a solution for me.

One immediately died and the other does not look so good. I think they were too dry in the packaging

It has not shown any sign of life yet. I don't know how long it should take was planted on 5/1/18. Would like to know if I need to advise.

Came in a reasonable amount of time and it is planted and growing nicely.

Received yesterday. Very big for the price. Root ball will need some attention in order to thrive~but I am excited. I see little bulbs of leaves coming out. Will see how it goes.
