Received my order here in zone 9b, plant arrived intact with autumnal coloration on the foliage. It’s been about 2 weeks since I planted it into the ground & appears to be putting on new green growth with no more autumnal coloration on the foliage. Plant appears to be establishing itself well in its new home. I can’t wait until spring next yr to watch it grow into its glory.

I’m not sure these are Proven Winners quality. They dropped their leaves when I got them but showed signs of life so I planted them- fingers crossed they will survive

Thank you for sharing! How much sunlight, do they receive per day? How are they currently doing? Would you provide a current photo. 😊

Deer eat this as well where I live. I don't get it. I have stupid deer, or something.

Delivery was prompt but the plants dropped 90% of their leaves within 10 days. I watered them well and planted them - i see new growth but these were not quality plants. Everything else i have received from Proven Winners Direct have been excellent quality so i would not hesitate to buy from them again.

Plant was very small and after I trimmed off the dead stems there is not much left. Very disappointed and still trying to keep it alive.

I purchased several and they were all in great shape when I received them!! All planted in a newly cleaned out area and sharing space with lemon button ferns. They went on sale after I ordered them--darn.

Packaging was horrible! Two plants in a giant box. The plants were jostled around and destroyed. I can’t blame FedEx as the actual packaging was faulty. They’re sending me replacements so that brings up the score for this one proven winners shipment,

I received these 3 Fizzy Mizzy in January. I need to preface this review by saying I only by PW. I received my plants and yes it was out of season, but when I went to plant.. all the soil fell away from their very sub standards roots. I gave them until today, March 19th and they looked worse! I dug them up w/ ease and they had little to no root growth. I use espoma Bio-tone on every planting. I live in zone 8B, abnormally warm and I monitor my plants daily. Once I dug up today, I knew I made the hard and right decision. I hope this review gets traced back to the grower who tried to pass these plants off on me for a $. I was shocked to receive them so quickly. I don’t blame PW, I blame the grower!! Regards, Leslie Torma

Thank you for sharing. We're sorry to hear this and happy to help! Please respond to this email with photos of the plants so we can further assist you.

So far so good! It’s shot up to almost 4ft, but it’s a bit sparse/thin. Hoping it’ll fill out with time. It’s still blooming so Yay!
