Geraniums

They arrived looking good, I planted them and they are doing very well.

Gorgeous

These are beautiful.

Ivy Geranium ships great

These plants shipped perfectly! After I planted them, one got smashed to pieces by a water jug. I am taking cuttings & see how many will root. Not all is lost. Can't say other plants won't be affected by rough handling during shipping though. They were still green! I couldn't find these locally & they will likely be multiplying for me over the years so worth every penny.

Cascading Geraniums

Since I have just planted these in my window box, I won't rate their growth. But I WILL rate their packaging. My 10 plants came in a tiny box, but they were packaged so very smartly! Each plant was protected by an innovative container which was designed to "mesh" with its neighbor. I was truly impressed. And each plant looked great, both in the package, and now, in the window box. I'm looking forward to a great display!
