    I think it's a stick.
    Do I win a prize? :D

    This is a Plum Tree just arrived unprotected in a cardboard box. 
    Is this what it should be like?
    I'd expected a few more roots and some indication of how deep to plant it.

    I think I'd complain / send it back

    Yes Hostafan1 that's what I thought...dead stick. :(

    😂😂😂.

    I would certainly complain. Where did you buy it from?
  • WhippetWhippet Posts: 145
    Its from Suttons.  To be honest I'd expected something a bit more encouraging than it is.
    I've planted it in a large tub for the time being but am not hopeful.

    I would send them an email with that picture attached. I've not dealt with suttons before, but most online nurseries are pretty good at refunds. Certainly not very tree like!
