This is the best place by far to get salvia and spice! I buy from them all the time now. super cheap, and super good qaulity! Service was normal.

I was really impressed that I can get better qaulity salvia here for a70% of the cost at salvia supply. These guys are the official ones that took over for bouncing bear so you know its good!

I ordered two weeks ago and received no package, not even a tracking number.

Store owner Reply:

Please let us know your order number so we can get this resolved. If you ordered a live plant they can take 2-4 weeks as stated in the description. Please get back to us a info@goldofsunshine.com.

Thank you

After having dealt with two other websites selling Salvia Divinorum live plants and getting a bad quality plant which ultimately died a few weeks later, I decided to give my quest to get a Salvia plant one last shot with this company.
Honestly, it was a pleasant surprise to say the least. I received the plant very well packaged with a heating pack two days after placing my order. My Salvia was very well rooted, and healthy, and I could tell immediately it was a well-loved plant from professional growers. Any questions I had about it’s care was promptly answered by Jerry in a timely,courteous, and friendly manner.
I will definitely be back for more. Anyone interested in botanicals should FIRST consider these guys and sidestep the waste of time, MONEY, and aggravations from the other companies out there.
Thanks again for a great experience and product!

I recently placed and received an order. The price was very good and the plants arrived in excellent shape – after a few days they perked up in the greenhouse and now look great.

I understand now that almost every order is a custom order – Salvia is root-propagated so it took about 4 weeks to catch a rooting “cycle”. This was not made really clear to me when I placed the order.

But I was kept well informed the entire time.

I am very satisfied.

I researched many companies before selecting Gold of Sunshine to buy Salvia. I purchased 2 plants to test growing in my area. The plants arrived in excellent condition and faster than the projected delivery date. I was very happy with my first experience with this company and since the plants were doing well, I decided to pick up two more. I had a problem with the second order. I emailed the company and received an answer within 20 minutes!!!! Gold of Sunshine offered to take care of the problem at no additional cost to me. I am VERY happy with Gold of Sunshine. Excellent product and great customer service! Thanks for a great online experience and excellent product!!

I ordered and received a very nice plant (order #0813). It arrived a bit droopy but perked up quickly in the green house.

My order took longer than I expected due to the timing of the rooting cycle, but I was kept informed the entire time.

Overall very good experience – I’m happy.

I ordered a live plant and some merchandise 12/10/10 -It’s the middle of February – my merchandise has not arrived and my plant died the first week. I am now being ignored by email. When I wrote to ask about the terminal plant I was told it was my fault, that I would be shipped another on in a few weeks, and that my orig. order would be shipped the next day. That was a month ago. NOTHING.

Order #750 Reply:

Within a half hour of this post, I received shipping information on my merchandise I will bookmark this and try to report when it arrives. The living plant did seem healthy when it arrived. I’ll make every attempt not to kill the next one; following the instructions for care exactly as written. I planted my initial plant in pete.

Nevermind, [the below] order was corrected and everything is fine. Good price and shipping, but quite bad at contacting clients.

Hubert Reply:

I made a mistake in the address but could not effectively receive help to correct it. Payed almost 30$ and never got it.
Extremely dissatisfied.
(Order #1165)
Dear Jerry, maybe if you see this review you will contact me and finally ship my order!

As for my live Salvia order. Ya, it took a little longer than the site stated, BUT you are dealing with live plants that need to take root before sending. I expect some type of delays honestly. Site said 6 weeks, it took 7, totally cool by me. My friend made an order, he got his in 4 weeks. Mine were in great shape when I got them, very healthy and had extra roots searching for food. After two days I drove them 2 1/2 hours, they looked terrible after that but by the next day they were looking GREAT again after being under a humidity dome. They look fantastic now.

In regards to not getting a response. I find this odd. I have made several crystal orders from this company, not just live Salvia and Jerry has replied quickly each time. I just made an order, didn’t notice another crystal, I wanted to add this to the order and he replied in like 15 minutes. I am not saying to expect a reply that quickly but I have not experienced any slow responses, all have been less than 48 hours.

I will continue to order from this company.

Love this company and their products, however, I’ve yet to hear back from them in regards to some inquiries and I’ve contacted them multiple times! :o /

Hey guys,

Amazing products! I’m curious though, why does the salvia extract I’m buying from you guys look vastly different than what I see in local smoke shops? Is the tar-i-ness because it’s standardized? Other extracts look just like dry leaf. Moreover, I’m curious as to what some of the herbs are in some of the incense/spibe mixtures such as the Gold of Sunshine mixture and one other one I bought. I no longer see them for sale on your website!!! :o / Are they no longer for sale? Anyhow, I’d like to have a rough idea of what it is that I’m inhaling into my body, therefore, I can know of/research any potential long-term consequences or lack thereof…

Thanks!
Mike

Wow! I came on this site to read reviews and decided to order from Gold of Sunshine based on reviews and price of live plants. I ordered 1 plant on Tuesday April 5 around 4:30EST, and got it today (Thursday April 7) via USPS priority mail. That’s crazy quick for AZ to NJ. I received 6 emails updating me on the status of my order.

Honestly I expected 2 – 4 weeks, so I must have hit one of the cycles (mentioned above) perfectly. The plant is in good shape, well watered, and came with instructions for successful growing. Hopefully I’m a good enough gardener to make this the large plant I envision.

All that aside, I’m very happy with their price, their product, and their service is top notch!

I recently placed an order through Gold Of Sunshine. I was exceedingly impressed with everything! The communication was very quick, prices were good and shipping method was incredible, well thought out,making sure to protect the plant during shipping.

It took a few weeks to receive, understandable as the plants need time to root. It was well worth the wait. The cutting was healthy, over a foot tall, with solid roots.
The instruction card provided was helpful. I followed the directions and a month later my salvia is not only growing but thriving!

GOS is legit! After such good service and products I cant see me going anywhere else.

Gold of Sunshine reply to my emails quickly and professionally and kindness.
Salvia was packaged very well and professionally, as well as shipment was sent that day I paid after an hour I received a tracking number!
Thank you Gold of Sunshine, I’ll recommend my friends for you and they will buy from you soon.
Sincerely,

I got 15x salvia for a decent price. While it was not a standardized extract, it does the job, trust me. Just don’t overdo it, start small. Fast service, dependable, etc. I’m pleased and will most likely be a return customer.

Review by Derek, September 1, 2011

I bought a live plant and had to wait a few weeks for it to come in the mail as stated on website. I called and left a message. The information was sent to me the very next day telling me when it should be shipped and received. I kept my eye out for it, cause I knew the plant was going to need some love from traveling so far. Order said it was delivered but I never received it. Anyways the post office decided to put it in my p.o. box instead of delivering it to my house “the address on the package” so the plant sat in a lock box from Friday till Tuesday. Needless to say it was not in good shape when I found it. I communicated this with jerry and he told me no problem they will ship me another plant for free. He did not have to do anything it was really my own problem, but he did. Gold of sunshine can expect me back as a customer, not only where they fair, but prices are low and product is of good quality. As far as the other post go saying calls and e-mail were not returned I had no problem with communication and feel the situation was handled in a very professional way.

Update: Had a little difficulty possibly because international delivery (NZ) but once Jerry found out he quickly and without hesitation fixed the problem,(i think light fingers in postal system somewhere)Great products/quality!! Absolutely satisfied and will not hesitate to purchase from his company again. Thank you very much Jerry, you’re a champion.

As per my previous comments, Jerry’s company and products are awesome. Thanks again for the fast remedy and looking forward to future transactions.
