Pleasant experience

Shipping was quick, price was good, and the bush is actually thriving right away, though planted late. Looking forward to tasting the fruit when the time comes.

All three died

All three died. They were delivered and set in a ci tainer outside but I was over a week delayed. I don’t think it was your fault.
Is it too late to order more this season. I’m in Red River, NM at 9000 ft elevation. There are wild raspberry plants scattered in the mountain, but I haven’t seen any blackberry.
I’d like to try again.

Dead plants replaced! I am a happy customer!!!

Both of my plants died! And then after I posted this, within days, my plants were replaced by Doyles for free without any hassle. I am seriously impressed with this company and I will buy from them again and again and also tell everyone about this customer service. You do not hear of this type of service anymore. I just can’t say enough.

Plants never really thrived.

Plants never really thrived despite a fresh and amended bed. It may just be the Wisconsin weather doesn't work for them. This is my 3rd attempt with the same results. I doubt any will come back next year.

The bushes I got seemed ok, smaller than I had expected.

The bushes I got seemed ok. This summer has been scorching. I am hoping they come back stronger next year. I have living soils, compost, mulches and know how to plant.. They were small... Not gonna lie. Hoping next year does better.

Received 2 healthy plants when I requested that they be shipped, due to dry conditions I grew them in patio containers and just got them in the ground as they are beginning to spread out. Just getting established at new home and hope to have nice garden next year.😊😊. 7-28-26

I named him Randy and he is thriving. He is still small, but I’m confident he will grow and eventually bless me with lots of delicious blackberries!
