My Helenium Moorheim Beauty arrived this morning! It was well packaged and looked healthy. I've given it a water and am keeping it indoors for now until the weather warms up again - hopefully I'll be able to plant it at the weekend.
Some pics below. The Helenium is on the right (I sneaked an Echinacea 'Summer Cocktail' into my order as well...).
I've gone mad with Sarah Raven plants this year: Euphorbia oblongata, Verbena rigida and Nepeta Junior Walker plugs, and I just ordered three Agapanthus Navy Blue 9cm. I'm out of control really. Impressed by the plugs especially the Verbena. Anyone else had any of those?
"What is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbour".
Mine has arrived too! The packaging was great. Very sturdy. I do like the little booklet that comes with it too. Has lots of useful but simple info about lots of plants.
something flew out of the box when I opened it and one of the leaves has been munched; aside from that I'm happy with a very healthy looking plant. Was very dry though. It perked up after a nice water.
Think I will harden I think off in a cold frame for a couple of weeks.

Just had a note to say my Moorheim Beauty is on its way too - hope it looks as healthy as Tesni and Giddy's. Getting excited now !

Third time lucky
Looks healthy (although has taken much longer to arrive than my normal online orders
). Will pot on and keep in the coldframe for a few weeks I think.
