I can't say I am happy with my last order (on the left side of the photo)... The plants are small, not in the best shape. The tiny pot with nothing in it is geranium Max Frei, only a crown, no leaves.
The lot next to it is from Penlan Perennials, geraniums in 1.5-2l pots for £6.50. Both these orders arrived today.
Here are the SGC plants on their own.
The upper left that doesn't look good is Phyteuma scheuchzeri, I hope it will make it because it's an interesting plant.
This is a photo of a plant I received the other day in a 9cm pot from a nursery with a very good reputation. And after being outside for a couple of days (in the shade) to grow a bit, it's now looking a darn sight worse and I fear it's reached a point of no return, so a phone call to the nursery might be in hand. So maybe all online nurseries are struggling to keep up with unprecedented demand on their services and are sending out plants they wouldn't normally do. No excuse I know.
@Treeface There's a crown and roots. Hopefully, it will regrow, these geraniums are resilient. It was £2.99 before the 20% discount. The whole order was just over £20 (9 plants, one refunded). If it dies, it dies, not worth asking for a refund or anything.... but I will remember this. They used to be much better than this.
You may have had the same email stating "End of season sale". 50% off entire order. Use code plant50 at checkout. Offer valid until August 4th so they don't give you much time. Could help someone who is in the process of ordering and hopefully they will send out some decent plants. Could be a bargain depending on what you receive.
Just a quick update to add balance. My plants arrived today in super quick time and very healthy. Hopefully this means that their service is getting back on track.
