Shame on me for not doing more research, but never...

Shame on me for not doing more research, but never bought fruit trees before so I was completely wet behind the ears. Drove 45 minutes to get the trees that I ordered online. It would be good practice to fully inform non wholesale buyers or homeowners of the size of the trees you sell. Literally, these $25 trees are basically twigs and crooked too! They are 3 feet tall maybe. They were all wrapped up together and I did not realize how small they were till our friend planted them for me. I was shocked by the small size. Went to Stauffers of Kissel Hill two days later and saw big beautiful trees that were sprouting with 1 1/2-2" trunks on them for $39.99. So wish I knew then what I know now.
Buy from a nursery if you want dozens or even hundreds of trees that you'll resell in a year or two to make a profit. If you only want a handful of trees that will fruit soon for your home buy from a garden center. On the phone the woman from ACN basically told me that I have to live with my decision and she was not going to apologize for anything. She thinks I'll be happy in the long run...we'll see, but right now I just feel sick.
