Just received my Geraniums as promissed. Holt's Website says 6-8 weeks for delivery as the slips are rooted per each request. It has been very hot in BC this summer (40C) delaying some shipments. They have been overwelmed by demand recently and are limiting orders to 300 only. Fantastic selection.
Canada, the plants were unable to be sent until this August. The plants arrived in wonderful condition on the day that was specified. The plants were great. Holt's is a magnificent place to find hard to get and unusual varities. I recommend it highly.
Holt Geraniums has an outstanding web site. It provides North Americans with an opportunity to buy a large selection of specialty pelargoniums, comparable to the selection in British nurseries (which we can't buy from the U.S.). It was worth the 2 month wait between ordering and receipt to get well-rooted and very healthy plants. These were by far the most healthy and well-packed plants that I have ever received through the mail. They were delivered from western Canada to the U.S. east coast in exactly 2 days. Holt emailed to alert me when they were mailed and it was fun to track their journey's progress via UPS. I was so pleased I immediately placed another order. What a selection of pelagoniums! I've been looking for years for this type of selection. Fantastic!
The plants arrived lush & full of life; I was astonished & impressed that even after spending several days in a box, they looked better than my plants! They were, and are, very robust.
I too was anxious about the large amount of money I'd paid, and not knowing when I'd receive the product; but I had no problem with getting reply to my email on the subject.
(In fact, I've emailed Holt now & then with various questions about pelargoniums, and have always been pleased with the promptness & thoroughness of the reply.)
