arrived in collapsed state with yellowing leaves, has revived but very sad looking plant. Hoping a little TLc will pull it through

Hi Graham, Thank you for taking the time to review your order. We are very pleased that you were happy overall with your order.
We are sorry about the Dodecatheon, it should have had a label in the pot explaining it was going into dormancy. So this is normal state of the plant at this time so please do not worry that it is looking a bit sorry for itself it is just going to ground. I hope this helps.
