My Raspberry Smoothie Althea just arrived. It's beautiful, well packaged, healthy, thriving SHRUB. Not a tree. I specifically requested a tree. I'm sure it will be lovely, but your Altheas need to be recategorized as SHRUBS

They seem to be struggling but I am watching them carefully and followed the explicit instructions I closed.

Extremely pleased with the plant I ordered from Pixie Gardens. It came well packaged and the interior support system they use is great... especially since UPS crushed the box and it was ripped open on one side. But.. the plant came undamaged and was in excellent condition. I will recommend pixie Gardens to others who want to purchase on line and receive such healthy and well packaged specimens!
See how our plants are shipped to you!
