Doing well

It traveled well. Well-packed. Planted it outside in container. It is getting adjusted to being outside I guess. Looks good a couple of days post-planting.

Sweet Pepper Plants Arrive in Good Shape!

I had ordered 3 Colossal Sweet Pepper Plant (SKU - GP-PEPS-COL-MM). I am delighted to say that the plants arrived in fine shape. They arrived via UPS. When I opened them up, the dirt had been scattered on the leaves, and they were a little dry. Other than that, I am pleased with the quality of the plants. Can't wait to taste the peppers when ready to pick.

Colossal Pepper plants

Plants arrived green and healthy The Colossal Pepper plants are thriving in my garden I will be ordering again

From anonymous | May 23, 2013


Great!!

I bought the Colossal Sweet Pepper Plant for my mom as a Mother's Day gift. I live 8 hours away, so it was very convenient to be able to purchase this online and have it shipped directly to her. According to her, they arrived in great condition. They were a bit dry, but that's going to be a given for any plant that is being mailed. Once she watered the plants, they perked right up. She planted them in the ground a few days later and so far, so good! These plants were much cheaper too than other potted vegetable plants I've seen at places like Home Depot or gardening stores. I would definitely recommend this product!
