Plumago
Received healthy and alive, packed in wax-covered cardboard box, and wet newspapers packed on top. They were longer than I expected, but that made them mature. No root bound either.

Large Order, Fast & Perfect
Large order, 150 Plumbago plants, all the way from Georgia to Utah and not one single fatality. Very well packed. And the four day delivery speed, from order to arrival, was amazing. You're a Great seller. Our local nurseries don't carry the large quantity that we needed for our yard. You not only had enough, but they were also healthier than the ones we looked at during our local searches. I would love to buy from you again. Thank You.
