Well, My 8 plants came in from "xyz" yesterday. 4 weeks after the order was placed (not too bad). All 8 plants fit into a 6" cube box with half of that being air. 4 of them were mostly dried out while the other 4 were water logged to the point of resembling over-cooked celery. Without going into an unnecessary rant I will say that their terms and conditions are so well put together that once you commit to the order, you're not getting your money back. Buyer beware, there are much, much better places to buy plants from. The pondmegastore.com is the other place I ordered from and used as a comparison. Night and day difference. Unfortunately, I did not take pictures of the Pond Megastore plant because they was nothing to complain about. Just imagine 22 plants, nicely trimmed and individually wrapped with plenty of green life. All of which are doing well in the pond. Compare this image to these plants from "xyz"...

The above is supposed to be Lizard Tail. Can anyone ID that for sure?
At any rate, if your are looking for a plant supplier, the pond mega store does very well and if you need to know who not to buy from just PM me and we can keep the direct negativity off the forum.
I have planted these fine specimens in pots to baby them along in case they are really "dormant". BUT I beg to ask the question...How can aquatic plant be dormant in the middle of the growing season? They were shipped form Tennessee.
