The plants look good, even in dormancy. I would like to suggest though that you put something on top of them: newspaper, shredded cardboard etc, anything to keep the pots upright. Two of the pots were upside down on arrival and both plants and labels had fallen out in such a way that I couldn’t tell which pot they came from. I now have the tantalising wait to see which they are when they flower…all adds to the excitement of gardening. This isn’t really a problem for me, but might be for others so I thought I’d let you know.
