I ordered 150 plugs and everything arrived. Very healthy, safe and sound, despite the high temperatures outside. Even more amazing, I was very sick and could not plant them right away and they all survived in their little plastic containers for 3 weeks with periodic watering and a heat wave. Was finally able to get them all in the ground and they look wonderful. Can't wait to see them grow next year.
We are extremely lucky to have this knowledgeable native plant vendor nearby. They have guided me through countless pollinator garden projects using native plants, and I can’t imagine doing it without them. I highly recommend them.
