Ah, I didn’t comment individually cos I bought quite a few plants…but I will say they were all smashing specimens, beaiutifully packed and posted in a timely manner (although the latter 2 points are nothing like as essential as the first) Top class, well pleased, returns guaranteed. Migfht even make an effort to attend open day.
