Bought this plant for my husband as a surprise. End result... WOW! Received a wonderfully good specimen, packaged carefully. Planted and watered per instruction. Resulted in a beautiful plant that had wonderful blooms two times this first year. I'm in zone 6a in Michigan. I would and have bought other items and will continue to do so.

Thank you for sharing!! We're happy to hear you are enjoying your plants. :)

The shipper obviously turned this box upside down because the plant had been removed from it’s pot and most of the soil was in the box. Also one main stalk of the three blooming ones was broken off at the top. I planted it anyway after trimming the broken stalk off and watered it in making sure to use all of the soil in it’s box as well as new potting soil. I sprinkled a small amount of the Proven Winners’ Continuous Release fertilizer in before setting the plant in the hole. It’s been 2 weeks now and the plant looks like it’s going to make it despite being beat up in shipping. I am surprised by how robust these plants are!

Proven Winners Direct lived up to its name as the company itself proved to be a winner. My items were delivered promptly. The plants were large, very fresh and very healthy! The quality of the plants impressed more than when bought locally and I will certainly order again and agan!

The Proven Winners perennial was potted and packaged just fine. However, the carrier FEDEX did not do a great job in handling the boxes. They arrived slightly damaged, several blooms were broken off. The boxes were left at our from door laying on their sides! We planted the perennials, they continued to bloom and they now look terrific!

The plants arrived in great shape and were very full and 2 feet tall. I've placed several orders this year and have always received beautiful plants. I love the daily specials. It really helps me grow my gardens.

I am 64, retired, sick and not able to get around many people. I am in the process my turning my back yard into a country garden/sanctuary. I try to track down proven winters flowers any time I can because I know I won’t have to replant. They never disappoint. I’m so thankful I found your website.

Wow! I did not expect to have these Red Hot Pokers arrive nearly 2 ft tall! I was pleasantly shocked at their condition. There were some spent blooms still attached, but the leaves were perky and fresh looking and are now planted and are holding up great. I cannot wait to see these perform up to their name!

What size container can i plant this red hot poker plant

Proven Winners Direct™

You will want to plant in a container twice the size it arrives in. It will reach 30-36 inches tall and 18-24 inches wide at maturity so be sure the pot iteself will have enough room for its width and roots at matuirty.
