Buying from this nursery is a huge risk. The person is not conscientious and takes no responsibility for anything; all the problems that arise are solely your headache. He delayed the shipment of my order for over two years, with various excuses—sometimes saying there was no stock, other times that the roots were weak—but he took the money upfront. We agreed on a shipment this spring, and again there was a delay, again something was out of stock, and he offered me a replacement with another type of plant. In the end, he sent the package in the summer, but customs did not allow the package and sent it back to him (keep in mind that the shipment is not from Sochi, but from the Dominican Republic). When I asked him to resend it in the fall, he refused. So, I lost a lot of time and money. There are numerous negative reviews about this person (regarding the quality of the services he provides) and this resource on the internet (mainly forums). If I had known this two years ago, I wouldn’t have paid.
