Delivery was great
Reviewed By: Tama Marks (Geneva, Ohio)
Plant arrived in great packaging. Looks healthy and in thick plastic bag. The delivery was 2 days, which is great. The other plants were moist still and packaged better than any nursery delivery I've had. I'll post more review when it is in bloom.

The color is BRILLIANT! The size of the blooms is very large. I live in zone 5 & these bloomed well into September!
