Disappointed ..
just taken delivery of a couple of new agastaches. They have arrived with every stem broken.
Carefully sifting through I cut off broken stems and been left with a crown of short shoots......still time for plants to grow and throw up some flowers in late summer I guess.
first time using this supplier but my instincts are that it is a sound provider and that the packing guys had an off day
emailled supplier immediately so will see what response is
i am so disappointed......comforting myself with a quiche and a lager. It's ok...I'll be alright ....I expect

I got some trailing begonia like that, a lot was broke lost a couple plants as well. At first I thought it was the supplier but after seeing the big dint in the box I change my mind.
I suppose it is tricky packing that sort of plant at this stage of the season - but if they're not going to arrive in a condition that you would want 'on show' in your garden they should say that the plant is for growing on for next year.
There's some icecream in the freezer and raspberries in the fridge Verdun, if they would help?
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
Cherry and orange drizzle muffins Verdun to console you.
A family sized carton of luxury vanilla ice cream, and a pound of raspberries Verdun, but you'll not have room after those muffins will you

I made some strawberry and cream yoghurt too if you have room.
I'm sure the supplier will offer you some 'compensation' Verd.
I'd send cake, but we've eaten it all...
