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.

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!
