Anyone have any dealings with this nursery? Good or Bad.

Thanks, Joe.

Never bought from them. BUT I've heard lots of crap about them. They have nice looking trees in their YouTube videos, but I have seen a lot of bad reviews on the web. Probably an indicator you shouldn't bother with them. Maybe they've changed by now..

Their videos are pretty wild lol. I came across them about 5 years ago. I was wondering where they got all those "models" from. :o XD XD

I know the name has been around a lot longer than 5 yrs -- not sure if it is the same management, though.  Most reviews I have seen in recent history have not been very good.  If anyone decides to take a chance on them, please post your experience here.

Same ownership.  All I have to say is, caveat emptor...

They say that they have a hard to find Olive tree(Sevillano). I just don't want to spend the time growing a tree, to find out it wasn't the variety I wanted.

Twenty-some yearts ago I stopped there because they purportedly had good Pawpaw plants.   There was only a plant bed where 1-foot-tall seedlings could be dug from.

There is also Olive Tree Growers in Dunnellon but I dont think they carry the variety you are looking for.   You might want to call them just to check.

I also stopped by at TY TY. There are no models working the trees. I saw two 40ish year old Spanish people working there.
They are also Willis orchard and Aaron's nursery. Why would a good company in good standing have other aliases?
My wife's family used to live close to them and her cousin did some computer work for them. They asked him if there is any way to
delete all their negative feedback especially on Dave's Garden. I wouldn't buy anything from them except in person.

Ty Ty had so many negative reviews on Garden Watchdog that they threatened some kind of legal action and got DG to remove them from the site. Only major nursery I know that has done this. Many alias, here are the reviews for one alias:

Ordered from there a few years ago. Had no issues with the three trees. They did ok although I have since replaced them with trees that do better.

yeah, ive heard several bad reviews years ago
and now i see an advertising blitz recently.

Also found a recent post of someone buying a mulberry pant
supposedly large tasty fruit etc... and not a conventional variety name.
When it fruited, it was supposedly terrible.
possibly cuttings grown from a wild tree.
