Baby Joe Eupatorium

I purchased two Baby Joes and they arrived in a beautifully healthy state. I have transferred them into larger pots before planting in the garden and I am sure they will perform wonderfully. I was extremely satisfied with the service and plants arrived promptly and were packed well with no damage. I would purchase again. Thank you.
