Good advice, great plants. Y'all are the best.

Flowers always arrive perfectly wrapped with many in bud or blooming. The salvias are my favorite as I buy those for the hummers. FBTS are wonderful people to work with if there are questions concerning the order and the plants I purchase from them are beautiful and healthy.

This is my second year purchasing plants from Flowers by the Sea. Again, it was a great experience. My order came as promised, packed well, and the plants are great. Can't wait til the hummingbirds come visiting, just like they did last year.

My plants arrived in perfect condition looking healthy they were well protected and traveled well all the way from the west coast to Virginia. What has really impressed me is as a novices Gardner there was so much information on the best planting and care of my new plants and each one identified. Thank you I look forward to spending many seasons enjoying my new plants

Ordering through mail order can be a scary thing. Will the plants I get look ANYTHING like the ones in the photo? Will they be healthy? Will they thrive? I have ordered from Flowers by the Sea for many years now, and the answers to all of the above have always been a resounding, \"YES!\" If I have questions, I either email or call. It never fails that I get a quick, friendly, helpful response. I've ordered from many mail-order nurseries over the years, and FBTS is - by FAR - the best.

My salvias arrived beautifully packaged and in excellent health. I can't wait to watch them take off. Thank you Flowers by the Sea.

FBTS provides detailed plant descriptions making selection decisions easy. The site is well organized so that selection can be made using categories to choose plants that fit your garden/habitat needs. Good healthy plants with strong roots. Good shipping practices. Plants arrived in excellent condition. Many difficult to find varieties can be found here. The hummingbirds, bees and I are very happy!

Service was excellent. Plants arrived as stated and in excellent condition. Now I just need patience as I enjoy watching them grow.
Linda DeRoze who rated us 10 / 5 on May 24, 2017

I ordered for the first time from Flowers by the Sea. I am very impressed by the quality of the plants (red hot pokers and a salvia). They were extremely well packaged and made it to the East from California in excellent condition. I am very excited to get them planted and enjoy the show! Thank you.

I ordered three red sage plants from Flowers by the Sea. When they arrived, they were all healthy, thriving, extremely well-developed plants, packed with roots and quite a good size. (I live in Virginia, so they were shipped all the way across the country.) They were tenderly packed, in a large box,and each completely wrapped in a thick white paper -- and were easy to remove from the box (this is not a criticism of other companies that ship plants, but sometimes they are a little too well wrapped and you need knives and scissors to get to them!). I strongly recommend this company and their plants!

I was extremely impressed by the quality and condition of the plants that I received shipped from Flowers by the Sea. They were very carefully wrapped, the soil was moist and they were in impeccable condition. I would definitely order from them again!
Claire Dudan who rated us 10 / 5 on May 20, 2017

As usual I am very pleased with the recent purchase of Salvia from you. Also, thank you for gifting me the plants that were shipped in error. You folks are extremely fair and this is greatly appreciated. My only issue is the distance and freight costs involved in purchasing from you. However, the variety and scope of your Salvia offerings is not matched by any other vendor that I am aware of. Again, thank you for your fine service and quality product.
Randy Collins who rated us 10 / 5 on May 19, 2017

Very beautiful, full and healthy plants wrapped gently, perfectly. Less than 48 hours from N California to OKC! Wow! Yes! Will review each specimen as they grow.
Doug who rated us 10 / 5 on May 19, 2017

My plants arrived in excellent condition! They are bigger and better than any plant I've ever ordered, by far. One plant could not be shipped so I called, and their customer service rep was SO polite and helpful. I'll definitely place more orders with them!
Kathy Gill who rated us 10 / 5 on May 18, 2017

Our plants came as scheduled and were in excellent condition. Communication with the company was excellent. I have ordered plants on-line from several sources and our Flowers of the Sea plants came better packaged than any other company we have dealt with. We live in the desert and our mail ordered plants often show up dehydrated and dead/half dead. Not so in this case - each plant was wrapped in moist paper to help prevent desication and arrived in vibrant conditon! We will order from this company again.
Laurie SAda who rated us 10 / 5 on May 17, 2017

I am always happy with your plants and look forward to their arrival every year! Your plants arrive healthy and strong and ready to grow and flower for me here in Long Islsnd. No one has the selection you have or the care of the plants you can see in every pinch to promote branching and the nice deep root pots! I wish my climate would allow all your salvias to overwinter here! Thank you for the work that you do!
Alice Raimondo who rated us 10 / 5 on May 16, 2017

The Salvias were very healthy and full, packed with care, and arrived undamaged all the way from California to Rhode Island. I highly recommend Flowers By The Sea. Their customer service is excellent!
Daune Peckham who rated us 10 / 5 on May 11, 2017

Ordered three pink mexican bush sage. Had to wait due to my late order but they arrived yesterday. They were much bigger than I expected. They were still moist, no broken foliage and lovely green leaves. I was very happy since I cannot get these anywhere here.
Patrice Gregory who rated us 10 / 5 on May 5, 2017

This afternoon was much better than Christmas morning. My latest shipment of FBTS plants arrived, and all are in great condition. Please thank all who helped with the excellent packing job. The plants were moist and well protected from breakage. The Agastache ‘Blue Boa’ (one in full bloom!) and the Cuphea x ‘Kristen’s Delight’ (also blooming) are particularly glorious. Thanks so much.
Alicia Rudnicki who rated us 9 / 5 on May 3, 2017

I love the salvia's that I received! They were beautiful, healthy and in-bloom. I will buy more in the future.
Daphne who rated us 10 / 5 on Apr 28, 2017

The salvias arrived in great condition. Than you!
Jan Wax who rated us 10 / 5 on Apr 27, 2017

Just received my plants today from Flowers by the Sea,(my first order) and WOW, they are fantastic! I could smell them outside of the box, so when I opened it, it was awesome! The packing was great, and I am so glad I received them before it got too hot here in Texas! I cannot wait to plant them, but tonight they are resting and getting refreshed from traveling so far! Thank you for such beautiful plants!
