This will be a general comment relating to all the plants. The plants are a birthday present for an active 80-year old, to give her something new to grow. The plants arrived in good condition, and the packaging was very good, as were the advice and instructions.
As soon as I’d checked that all looked well, I gave the boxes to my friend to plant up.
I liked your website, a new one to me, and choosing this birthday gift was pleasurable.

I purchased this plant for next year so it was in its dormant state. I have protected it from too much wet and will plant out in more favourable conditions.
