I describe what I'd like and my yard conditions, and I've been delivered not only healthy fruit trees, but a good variety that does well in my yard. I always purchase from Stark rather than the box stores for that reason. It's been well worth it since my cherry trees are for a lifetime and they're the pride of my yard." - Sharon P. (2023)
"Just received my order of bareroot elderberries and gooseberries. All very healthy-looking individuals.

Thank you Stark Bro's, will be ordering again soon!" - Irena B. (2022)

42 years, and still fruiting!
I live in lower Michigan, zone 6B. My mother in law purchased a Celeste fig, which was in her yard for years before she passed-and I didn't have the heart to leave "Celeste" behind when her house sold. I've had her for 42 years now! I over winter her in the winter in my garage-and outside for spring-fall. I choose to keep her trimmed shorter than she wants to grow-for ease of moving in/out as I'm getting older now-but I can't let anyone take her over, just yet. Our family have always purchased from Stark since "Celeste" started our traditions out with great trees! Just wanted to share our tree with your company! - NacyNay
Beautiful, robust and healthy calamondin tree
This calamondin (aka calamansi) was my first purchase from Stark Bros. and I couldn't be more pleased! Some other online vendors I've tried send out puny, small plants that can barely make it through delivery. In contrast, the Stark Bros plant I received was large, robust and healthy (see photo). - Marcia
