Off to a great start!
The plant was well packaged and arrived healthy. It's tripled in size over the summer and the deer haven't eaten any of it. The silver colored leaves look nice and I'm looking forward to flowers next year. I'm very happy with this purchase..

Bad warranty. Bad customer service. Ok plants .
Plants died over weird winter. Odd thing is stark bros now requires a scratch test on all plants. Someone explain how do you scratch test a dead lavender plant. Seems like they are finding ways to not stand by their promise.
