HI Richard
Thank you for taking the time to review your plant purchases. These plants should have been cut back to the base crowns before sending as they are in the drought season and so they stop flowering in this kind of heatwave and restart flowering once the rain comes in. We sincerely apologise that they were not thoroughly cleaned in this way for you and do hope that you get great joy from them as they mature in your garden.
All the best
Laura & Luke
