These look pretty sad. I have stopped buying from Schreiner's (and Maryott before that), because the 1 and 2 year survival and prospering rate is low compared to plants I get from other sellers. I know it isn't my growing techniques because I have 500 other varieties that are thriving in my 5b/6a gardens. But what arrives as these big meaty, bunches of fans either dies off and doesn't survive the first year or after 1 or 2 seasons, remains struggling as 1-2 wimpy fans.
It makes me sad because they are some really pretty flowers.
