The plants from Big Dipper arrived today and they look very, very good. I guess everyone got the anti-styrofoam memo because there was none in this packing box either. The box is lined with newspaper, and each plant is dug fresh, encased in plastic film, and then wrapped in newspaper, with the label taped to the outside of each little packed plant. This is the top layer of plants (I ordered six, so they were in two layers).
I ordered Pulsatilla 'Red Clock,' Primula 'Ken Dearman,' Primula capitata 'Noverna Deep Blue,' Lewisia cotyledon 'Regenbogen,' Lewisia cotyledon 'Sunset Group,' and Lewisia cotyledon 'Rainbow Mix.' All of the Lewisias are semi-unknown commodities because the cultivar name refers only to the strain, so they could be almost any color at all. The Pulsatilla is dormant, and the Primulas are just waking up, but the Lewisias are rarin' to go.
These six plants cost $41.94 and the shipping was $8.00. I'm very happy with this order.
