Hi Elaine
Thank you for taking the time to review the plants you ordered.
Apologies for having to chop this plant to fit in the box. It was juts starting to flower and so with our current boxes we had to trim it down. By doing this though it should produce a far greater display of flowers for you as we use this technique on plants we display at shows. We have now ordered our new box design that will eliminate plastic in the packing materials and allow us to send plants with flower heads up to 10 inches high, these should be delivered in late July so from then on this should be a thing of the past.
Regarding the dryness we keep these plants on the drier side as this is there preference when in these pots. Once established in your garden please water as you would any other plant you have.
All the best
Luke

Agastache Aurantiaca-Hybr. ‘Tango’ – sturdy looking 9cm plants, lots of shoots, compact growth. Root bound, though. Hope they perk up now they’re in the soil.
