Healthy Plants

The plants I received were very healthy and larger than I expected. They’re thriving in our pollinator garden.

Lobelia cardinalis has doubled in size

I was impressed with the way my order was packed. Each plant was well protected during shipping. The plants were all very healthy. I had to wait a couple of weeks before planting outside. The Lobelia has been outside about a week now and is growing vigorously. I am limited to planting my garden on the deck due to the large deer population. Can’t wait for it to flower!

Gorgeous Flowers

Gorgeous flower but the rabbits love this plant. They chewed it down to nothing. I hope it comes back up this year. I put a cage around it.
