Audrey, the bloom may stick around until spring. I have some that are blooming right now, and keeping their blooms close to the rosette. The rest of them should be fine.
They all look very healthy. It will be fun to see the rest of your projects that will include the new semps.
I find it difficult to understand why some one would use fiberglass insulation as packing material.
Newspaper crumpled up makes good packing material. Paper towels.
I'm with Julia, would love to have my copy signed.
Hopefully these will be among the ones that will be introduced this coming spring, from Young's Garden.
