Last March we went to Moon Valley Nurseries, on McKellips, in Mesa.
We were greeted immediately and were asked if we needed help. We explained our backyard and that we needed bushes and a fruit tree. The bushes were to block some of the west sun.
As we were being led to the area he was asking us questions if we were in an HOA community if there were restrictions on the type of plants, trees, shrubberies so he could take us immediately to the ones we could purchase. What was great about this visit was that he spent the time we needed to learn about the shrubs we saw and fell in love with. We ended up buying those gorgeous trees and a fruit tree. They were quite busy with the delivery schedules, due to their high end nursery, and we agreed to wait until the date of delivery.
Once the crew came we knew immediately that they were very professional and also planted the2 24 gallon hop-seed shrubs and also the tangerine tree. They left our backyard as clean as when they dug the holes and raked all the gravel back. They put support poles in and made the soil area wide enough for slow dripping watering.
We did purchase the warranty because they were large shrubs and didn't want to take a chance in having a problem.
The summer was brutally hot with temps over 110 for a few months and one of the hop-seed shrubs took a turn for the worse. It was dying and the other one was thriving as well as the fruit tree.
We called Moon Valley and was told to come in immediately and to take pictures. We did and were told that it was indeed an extra hot summer. They gave us a container of liquid food for the shrub and gave us a instructions on what to do. They also guaranteed us that they would extend our warranty even after March to the hot weather and if the tree doesn't do well that they would replace it completely.
Their concern for us felt rewarding. So far the liquid food has worked, even though it's been cold, and the beautiful purple leaves are gorgeous.
We will always buy our plants, trees and shrubs from Moon Valley and to all the employees that helped us, we thank you so much! Tina F.
