Did not get a 4’ tree that we paid for. Very disappointed in this time of grief.
Hello Justin-
I am so very sorry, you were initially disappointed in the product that was received. I know that you put a lot of thought into this gift and wanted the recipient to receive the size tree you had intended and paid for.
These trees tend to have a variation of size from 3-4 foot. I again apologize that they must have received the shorter size. We encourage all of our customers to contact as soon as possible, with any issues, concerns or questions.
However, after our customer service rep was able to speak with you, I want to thank you for allowing the opportunity to humbly try to make this right. We are in fact sending an additional tree, personally doing a quality check to ensure that it meets or exceeds the larger size .
We hope this effort will re-earn your trust.
Kindest Regards,
Maleena

In memory oak
This was my second "in memory" tree I've gifted. In both instance, the families loved their trees. They arrived exactly when I was informed it would and were in perfect condition. The symbolic gesture of something living in place of someone who has passed and the oak meaning of strength and reaching towards heavens meant so much. They were planted along with loving notes with the root. Highly recommend

I’m so happy that I found this company online. My son in law lost his father and my husband and I were looking for something to show him we were thinking of him and felt for his loss. He loves trees and plants, so we knew this would be a gift he would cherish. I loved that the company sends a card right away to let them know the gift has been ordered and then they send the tree at the right time for planting. He’s known for months that it was coming, and was excited to receive it this week. I’ll definitely remember this company in the future.

I came across Seeds for Life because i was looking for something to send to my brother & sister-in-law to commemorate their son who passed away unexpectedly.
My brother called me, upon receipt, of the oak tree to say they both cried and were very touched.
The tree arrived very quickly, and i found customer service to be very helpful.
The title of the company says it all. If you’re looking for a gift to help ease pain of loss, and keep the memory alive - i would definitely recommend this choice.

Perfection!
I live in Houston and my Mom and Step Dad live 7 hours away. So when my step-dad lost his mom and sister due to Covid, we bought a spray for the funeral but the day before the funeral the flowershop emails me that they cancelled my online order. We received the link for seeds of life through a coworker of mine, and I have to say that I'm so glad that I didn't spend my money at that stupid online flowershop. We bought the oak tree and were able to fit both names of my step-dads mom and sister and it was carefully delivered in a box without damage! At the end of the day we saved $40 on something that will last for a long time as the spray would have just died. So thank you Seeds of Life for the best gift we could have given! Thank you so much!💛

The ordering was easy. I messed up on the address (autocorrect) I emailed them and they got back to me really fast to advise that they updated it correctly. The shipping was fast (4 days), faster than any other product I’ve ordered through the covid19 pandemic. The tree was about 3 - 4 ft tall and easy enough for me (5 ft 110 lbs) to handle alone. It came with instructions and was very easy to plant.

Seeds of Life exceeded my expectations. I could not have been more pleased. The recipient's thank you note included a photo of the oak tree I sent which was larger and more beautiful than I expected:) Entomologist D.Tallamy has written that an oak tree can support the caterpillars over 500 species of butterflies and moths. Those caterpillars are a critical food source for over 96 percent of our native songbirds. A grand tree to celebrate a grand life!

After not being able to be in NY for a sudden loss of my husband's cousin, this tree was sent to our family, who received it just before heading out to the service. They were so touched by the meaning and how the Oak is about remembrance, and how we cherish the memories we had with him.
We even did the extra engraved tag, that they planted and have on the tree. Thank you for such great customer service and for the beautifully packaged tree. Knowing that I have this option instead of sending flowers has been such a great option for us. Not only sad gifts but even happy gifts. Just sent our friend back east a baby boy congrats tree! So beautifully done and so gracious. Thank you!
