Purchased in Feb 2021. Packed carefully - I emailed and got a response within a day on planting instructions. It took a little bit before it started to sprout. This year it has been going strong for a 2nd year vine. Hopefully the next year’s vines will give us some grapes. Very happy with my purchase.Arrived early, the root base was still moist and was packed delicately. The vine was about 3 feet in growth upon arrival. I was very hesitant to spend so much but I’m glad I did.I ordered my flame seedless grape vine right before a major storm and it was stuck in transit for 11 days. The box arrived undamaged, the pot was carefully wrapped in damp paper towels and plastic. The inside of the box was clean, the branches of the plant showed no damage and the plastic covered pot was securely taped to the inside of the box. It came with hand written information about the plant explaining that it is winterized (February) and how to plant it. Excellent care was taken in shipping this plant, I was impressed that after being in transit for 11 days it looks perfect. During COVID isolation the hand written instructions were a nice reminder that a human being took special care. Thank you.update: It's been 7 months, in zone 9 the grape plant has gone from being a winterized stick to having many vines beyond 10 feet long. Excellent growthOrdering live plants online can be tricky, in my opinion. Not being able to see it, touch it, asses it’s condition forces you to rely on the seller.The plant arrived very quickly, was securely packaged, and appeared to be in good health. After having transplanted it, I watched it adjust to its new home. Naturally, a few leaves fell, but shortly after new growth has begun. Great seller!Plant arrived alive, looked okay, planted and caring for it. Been checking for growth but not much happening at this time although I don’t believe it’s dying. Will keep an eye on it and report any new growth or progress noted.Grapevine was in poor shape when it arrived. Leaves have black spots all over them. Still Not surviving well after 2 weeks . Hopefully they will pull through and grow well in the spring.It arrived with leaves ant two feet tall. It was potted 8 inches tall and about 8 inches in diameter. that best packaging I have ever seen and I have seen a lot !!!!!Received my Flame seedless grape vine in perfect condition. Well packaged. Transplanted it the next day into a vacant spot in my vineyard. So impressed by the quality of the vine and packaging that I ordered two other varieties, but in the 2 gallon size. Time will tell if I chose wisely.
