Comments (5)I've only been ordering hibiscus from the internet for 3 years but my experience with multiple orders has been that Hidden Valley Hibiscus has a wide selection and the best plants. The ones I received this year were large and most appreciated is that they were very clean - no insect problems at all which I cannot say about the other sellers I also ordered from. The plants also made the transition to my garden better than those from elsewhere, some of those were too much "hot house" plants that struggled after I got them but not the ones from HVH. Also, Hidden Valley supports their plants better than any grower/seller of any type of plant I have seen. They have very complete info on growing hibiscus, a forum with many useful comments and answers, and a free newsletter every month with lots of good tips and other info. To me they try harder and do a great job with everything. I guess you can tell I like this vendor and for sure plan to buy a bunch more plants starting next Jan 1 when they open the new selection for the year....See MoreJust visited peacful Valley

Comments (9)Its funny that you point out the difference in the two indian free peach trees, BobZ. I spent a lot of time looking at the difference and I'm actually a little worried if they really are the same tree! Aside from the differences you pointed out in root structure, the wood is darker and more "freckled" on one than another and the roots are lighter colored on one. Oh well...like you said, its just funny that there are such differences in trees you would assume were grown very near each other. But I was very, very happy with the size, thickness, and quality of the trees. I think they will do great, All that being said, it did remind me of a recent post (forget who said it) in that even though I love the size and shape of the trees, if you watch the dave Wilson video on backyard orchard company, he seems to advocate a smaller tree with less branches as being the ideal tree to start with. These seem a bit larger and more filled out. But perhaps these would still be the perfect "BYOC" tree if I pruned them back more. Whether I'm wrong in my understanding of the ideal BYOC tree or if these just need trimming and then would meet that classification, OR even if it won't.....I think I prefer these big thick trees!...See Moreandy99mich
