Excellent plants
Excellent plants, already growing well and looking forward to the flowers growing. Would have given 5 stars but delivery was delayed by 2 days. A better courier who can deliver on time would be appreciated.

Only 3 out of 60 plants have failed
The majority of the plants were great and very healthy. 1 plant missing and 2 were very limp on arrival and have not survived. Others appear to be doing away fine. Delivery was well communicated and plants arrived when expected.

Remembrance Rose by Harkness Roses.
Delightful roses. Harkness Roses are always healthy and reliable, have been buying from them for years. These roses bloomed exactly as described, a wonderful poppy red. Again, as described this rose is compact but crammed full of blooms. I highly recommend this rose and Harkness Roses.
