Great plants
I received 4 healthy, sturdy 1’high plants. This is a great native evergreen plant, that can handle Sun, shade, part shade, wet feet, or drought. It gets big! My understanding is it’s hard to grow from seeds or cuttings, so I’m very appreciative of the nursery growing these.

healthy small tree, ready for planting
I was pleased with the way this 1 gallon seedling was packed. Very well protected. The plant was healthy and has taken to its new home very well after planting. This review is written one week after receipt, so it remains to be seen how the plant does long term and whether it flowers. Excited to see!

Good sized and doing very well!
I love the smell of osmanthus flowers and wanted the only American native version in my garden. I received a healthy 2 ft sized plant with multiple branches; excellent size for price and not common among mail order nurseries. The leaves blend in with many other plants; I've tucked mine into a hedge. It's in heavily compacted clay on top of a steep slope and under a mature silver maple (aggressive root system) and yet has already put on several inches of growth! For reference, I'm in zone 6b, humidity and 90* degree summers, cold winters with no snow cover.
