Winky Double Red and White Columbine

I purchased the Winky Double Red and White Columbine plant from Growjoy. As always, the plant I received was in excellent condition, and I am sure it will thrive and bloom very well. The packaging they use to ship plants in is absolutely remarkable, and it really protects the plant from becoming damaged during shipment. I always feel confident when ordering from Growjoy that I will receive quality plants when promised. I am never reluctant to order from them.
