Pleased with excellent delivery and plants

My plants were healthy looking. It rained heavy the day I picked them up so I waited 2 or 3 days to put them in the ground. All of them have visible new growth on them. I'm am pleased. Oh, and the root system on the one plant was awesome!!! But all doing very well.
