No fears about buying a live plant in line
So far these Japanese boxwood plants are beautiful. I was a little concerned about ordering a plant on line. When they arrived my concerns were erased. They were packaged extremely well with the base wrapped in plastic and looked very healthy. I have since planted them and they are doing great. My fears of buying plants on line from Walmart are completely gone.

Always Green
I spite of the fact arrived 2 days late from FedEx the plants were in good shape and planted immediately upon receipt. With watering they are doing fabulous in spite of being planted in heat of early August.
