Medium Dish Garden

I specifically ordered this plant arrangement because it came in a ceramic dish instead of a basket, but upon delivery the ceramic dish had been substituted out and replaced with, you guessed it, a basket. I was not notified of the substitution nor given any automatic discount or refund. However, when I called the Sympathy Store customer service line, they provided a partial refund with no argument, which I appreciated. The exact same thing happened to my aunt the same week, so beware when purchasing dishes - you may get a basket instead.

The pot was not what is shown and seemed on the small side for $100

The dish garden was lovely. They had even added some flower accents. I chose this thinking that maybe one of the family could have it at home as a living memorial.

My friend sent me a photo as we live out of state. It was a plant that looked nicer than the picture with some colors not just greenery. She said she melted when she saw it at the funeral home. Very easy to use when you don't know an area too. Paying for convenience as I know I could have gotten the same thing a lot cheaper but it was worth the ease and lack of time to make calls especially not being from or in the same state!

The Sympathy Store was my link to a funeral I couldn't attend. They sent email updates to keep me posted on my order and when it was delivered. I emailed them with a question, and they responded within the hour. I so appreciated their great service and kind, thoughtful employees.

The actual Medium Dish Garden that was delivered was more beautiful than the picture. It is a wonderful way to remember someone who has passed with a living plant rather than just flowers, which will get thrown out or donated. The delivery was on time and I was very happy with the service and product

The plants were nice but disappointed that they were not in a ceramic dish as described - in a basket instead.

It was a little smaller than I expected but the plants were alive and nice and I ordered it hoping the plant would live on a counter for however long their green thumb is and then the bowl itself could be reused and seems nice quality. The writing was ok handwriting and all correctly like I wanted it. The paper could have been nicer than a plain white square..I did not take a pic cause I don't take pics at funerals.

This was a very nice arrangement. The added flowers were a surprise and a beautiful touch. Thank you. 😊

This is not what was delivered. It had the plants with the basket. Was the dish not available?

I was expecting it to look similar to the photo, but the plants were very small. Especially compared to large pot in was in.

It was no dish but a basket. Next time I know to buy local and take to the service myself. I had no interaction with the Sympathy Store team, other than emails saying it was bought and delivered. So I guess technically they did interact.

This was smaller than I expected, but the base was much lovelier than I expected. The plants were beautiful!

I ordered a medium dish garden because I specifically didn't want a basket but I somehow ended up with a basket anyway. The plants inside were very nice but it was a little pricy for how small it was. I didn't mind paying more for a glass dish but not that much for a basket

Dish garden was nice and appreciated. Thanks.

When times are stressful (such as a death) its good to have a shop/company you can rely on to make the delivery when they say and to also deliver the product you purchased. I am in Colorado and have used them twice and have been very satisfied both times.

I knew there would be lots of flowers at my ex wife's Wake and Funeral. I wanted something that my Daughter and Grandchildren would have after the Services to Care for and Nourish as they did my Ex during her illness, that's why I ordered The Medium Dish Garden🤗

We found the Sympathy Store very easy to use and were glad when customer support let us know that the memorial service was in a remote area so delivery to the home would be better. The arrangement looks really nice and it all worked out well.

This was my first experience with The Sympathy Store. Their service was GREAT! Inexpensive compared to other purchases that I've made online through florists. They delivered to the designated place on-time, just as they said. They emailed to say that the Dish Garden had been delivered. I was very impressed with their service and would encourage anyone to use them. Thank you SYMPATHY STORE for your impeccable service. ~Mary

It was called a Dish Garden and was pictured in a white planter, but came in a basket. I was expecting the planter, but it was nice anyway.

I did not see the dish garden myself, but when I ordered it, the website indicated that it might not be delivered on the requested date because of Memorial Day. However, I received an email saying it was delivered on the requested date and I appreciated getting the email.

During this time of isolation and stay at home orders we are not able to be present with and offer comfort to those we care about in their time of need. The efforts you have made to allow us the opportunity to let the family know they are not alone have been greatly appreciated. Ordering was simple and the notification that the plant would be delivered to the family's home rather than the funeral home increased our confidence in this service.

from Mount Airy - North Carolina

First of all we selected the Dish Garden because we did NOT want a basket. The plant that was delivered to the funeral home was in a basket, MUCH smaller than what is pictured. I was definitely disappointed and somewhat embarrassed with how small the planter actually was after paying close to $79.90 including tax and delivery fees.

We bought this plant so my Mothers relative and my aunt can keep it even after the service.

This was for my sister in law's mother's funeral and it arrived timely and was more beautiful than what I expected. I wish though that it had come in the white planter like the picture but it came in a terracotta colored planter. My sister in law was very surprised and it is sitting on her table in her home as a memory to her mama.

I was extremely pleased with the Medium Dish Garden from a local florist in Fort Dodge, IA. It was even prettier than the photo online. There was a nice variety of hardy green plants in the white ceramic container. The overall size was taller than I expected. Thank you for the convenience of ordering through the Sympathy Store. The arrangement was there on time for the visitation of my loved one.

Very disappointing in this Piece it arrived in red clay pot, not the white, I will not be ordering any others from this web site ever again.

The Medium Dish Garden arrived exactly as ordered. It is a wonderful way to send a part of your heart across a thousand miles to a loved one who is grieving, and it's lasting. It's an array of live plants that will provide a lasting reminder of your love, and it's extremely low-maintenance (I know because I received one when my mother passed away).

This was a very pretty arrangement. A bit expensive, but pretty. At least I did not have to depend on someone to take me to a florist. The family told me it was pretty.

It was everything we wanted and it went home with a family member.. I am not sure why the service charge/handling fee but we were satisfied. Live plant is the way to go

I was not at the funeral, but my Mom took a picture of the delivered arrangement and sent it to me. It wasn't identical to the one pictured on the website, but it was pretty close.

I was very disappointed in the look of the plant. My friend sent a picture to me. It was not even in a glass bowl as pictured it was in a paper bowl. I would never order plants again from you because of this. It was over $80 dollars and looked cheap. You need to put details of the order on line and give dimensions as I feel like you were just out to make money. I

The arrangement was very nice. I was pleased that the dish was a nice size.

Although I appreciate the ease and promptness of the ordering process, I do not believe it was as described. Not only was it more of the small sized, but these were supposed to be live plants and not cuttings. I wanted them to be able to transfer to a garden for remembrance, but it appeared that this was not possible.

Did not receive arrangement in dish garden was in a basket instead not what I wanted

The plants you included in my "Dish Garden" were in fact not the same. The picture and the actual gift weren't as the sales ad depicted. Actually, I was just getting ready to call when I checked my mail to get the number. I deliberately avoided baskets and GUESS WHAT I got...A cheap looking basket. I DID NOT put those stars above. I would like to have what I ordered and will be happy to return what I DID NOT ORDER.

The Dish Garden was beautifully arranged, large and delivered on time. I am greatly appreciative for all they did for such a late request. Thanks to everyone involved.

As far as I know everything is fine. Unless someone in the Westergaarde family complained, I have no complaints. I am in Ohio. I am a co-worker of Kurt Westergaarde. This service, which I found on the Funeral Home's website, was very easy to use and provided exactly what I needed. If I filled out the survey wrong or failed to complete it, it was not due to your service. Have a wonderful day. Judy Lovejoy

Very unhappy I ordered this item which is not what was sent. I Peace Lily was. Had I wanted a Peace Lily I would have ordered one. I in particular do not like them which is why I ordered a dish garden. I received a email that I did not see until after the service that informed me the florist was going to have to change my request.

The plants looked ok. There were a few daisies which looked a little cheap to me. There was a butterfly decoration which isn't pictured and which I didn't care for. My main complaint is that the arrangement was not in a dish. It appeared to be in a basket. I chose this because I liked the look of the dish and the lush plants pictured. Also there's a $20 extra charge that is not shown until you check out. But they have you as they are affiliated with the funeral home. On the plus side the arrangement was delivered within an hour of ordering.

It is very hard to order flowers or arrangements by the internet, to know if they will really look like the picture. I want to compliment you on the beautiful arrangement. The people whom I sent it to were very happy and please with it. Thank you. D Ziy

I'm not sure which of the local florists filled this order, but they did a great job. Of course it was different than the photo, but it looked nice.
