Plants Want To Live (Mostly)

Back in March, I reported on a plant order that went astray in the post. By the time it arrived, the contents looked decided the worse for wear.
The nursery provided replacements without quibbling, but I left the pots in a corner just in case.
This is how they looked today.
So three primulas and three hacquetias, plus a pot of autumn flowering bulbs seem to have recovered from their trauma. There’s still time for the last pot – I will give it twelve months before giving up on it.

Good one Andrew, they certainly look healthy now, I can never understand why some people just throw plants away without giving them a chance....
