Have done multiple purchases. All plant material has been reasonably priced and of high quality. Packaging was well done and plants arrived in great condition. Really love my Macrozamia glaucophyllas! Will buy from them again.

I certainly agree with Tank. Tejas Tropicals grows first rate plants and the service is great. David is very helpful and friendly. I will be making several more purchases as money allows.....uh..ok, ok, actually I have to order in smaller increments, of one or two plants at the time, so my wife doesn't notice.

David was very kind to me on two separate visits (throwing in some freebies with my orders), and i've mailordered several times. Top notch!

I've ordered from Tejas Tropicals twice. The plants were all very healthy and much larger than expected.

I purchased sabal domingensis, uresana, and brahea clara. Excellent quality and hard to beat those prices....

Unbelievable, I really would never have believed it. $25 for a large 5 gallon jubaeopsis kaffra, bare rooted and when re-potted didn't even flinch. Not only are Tejas Tropicals priced right, but they are solid, tough plants that don't appear to have been pulled from a greenhouse. Their bare rooted and shipped plants rival in quality what I bought in Southern California. 

 

Plants are also labeled properly and packaged really well. I've had no issues whatsoever with all their plants in terms of handling being bare rooted. I will be ordering from them in the future. 

 

I planted one of the bare rooted kaffras right into the garden with only a shade cloth protecting it, no issues whatsoever, it's actually already growing.

Yet another super bonus for Tejas Tropicals. He was out of something I had ordered and put in a substitute. I didn't look very carefully at the order, just potted them up and let them acclimate. A few weeks ago, I put the whole lot in the sun. In the midst of the  order, I discovered that one of the substitution was the super rare brahea moorei.
