Hi has anyone else received their orders? Got all excited when I saw this saying order arrived, but that was a week ago and I'm still waiting. I know it said upto 28 days, so perhaps I'm being impatient but I ordered on the 2nd and was wondering if katholicos was just lucky or others who ordered then had also got them. Thanks Snapdragon

I received my first order for 12 strawb plants, but my second order still hasn't arrived and i only ordered it the day after the first order was placed!

I've received my first order today, ordered on 2nd April.
Not received my second order yet, ordered 4th April.
Are these little plants ok to go straight outside?

That's what i have done and they seem fine. They looked completely dead when they came but the leaves are now green.

Still not got mine snapdragon....

Thanks, perhaps they are jealous of the wonderful weather we have been having recently in the midlands, so they are holding out on us. They'll probably arrive when it starts tipping it down and I won't want to venture out to plant them.

Can't believe it hasn't rained even a drop here since I set up my new water butts on the tuesday of Easter week. It seemed to rain non-stop before I made the decision to get them in preparation for all my planting plans.:rotfl:

Mine arrived this morning, planted out now. Covered with fleece, in case of cold weather and protection. Hoping that is ok.

Mine arrived this morning, too - not in a spectacularly good condition, as others have said. OTOH, what can you expect for such a low price?

I probably won't let this lot fruit this year as they look a bit feeble, but we'll see how they get on. They're going into growing bags, later today or tomorrow morning.
