Yep, I received a shipment from Matt in late November - all in good shape. The Crab and trident seedlings in my last week order ought to be here in two days.
I've never had a bad shipment from either Matt on the East coast or Brent at EG Gardenworks in California yet.
Yeah I just placed my first order with Matt. I wanted to last Spring but I was a bit too late so this year I ordered a little early to be safe. Should have @ 15 bare root seedlings shortly.
