I ordered this set because it has several of my dad's favorites and I wanted to plant them on his grave. They arrived in excellent condition sooner than I expected. I planted them in planters to start growing before I made the trip to the cemetery. They all started growing immediately except the butterfly bush took a lot longer as they said it would. They are all transplanted and watered. They should do magnificently. I was so pleased with the first collection, I ordered a second to plant on my back hill to remind me of dad. They also arrived healthy. I planted them yesterday and can't wait for them to grow!!
