Great looking products, but I thought I requested them to be delivered in April 2023 , I hope they survive the harsh Northeast winter we have up here, sometimes frost pushes them out of the ground but I will keep a close eye on them. just for the record I’m not blaming delivery date on you, I might’ve messed something up on the order?

I ordered a lot of 15 to see what they would be like, and I am very impressed – the plants are healthy and well rooted! It’s the beginning of February and in Ohio, I put them out in a tub next to the house and covered with mulch, I will wait until the weather is milder and I can run a drip hose to keep them watered.
