QVC plants.. Should we all post piccies?

[perdita]

I brought the sweetpeas & am totally disappointed.
Two flowers!!

I have one sweatpea that has survived but had to take them out of hanging basket a good while ago as they had started to go yellow.

We had sweet peas bought from another retailer and they have been a huge disappointment too! I'm wondering if it hasn't been the weather conditions?

Richard Jackson said that the QVC sweetpeas were bred to be hardy and that they would take whatever the weather threw at them! I think not.

I buy QVC Sweet Peas every year and have always had a beautiful display of colour. The more you cut them, the more flowers they produce. They smell gorgeous too.

I cut two bunches this morning.

Having said that, I have been disappointed with other plant purchases. And don't even get me started on that blooming Victorian Style Strawberry Planter...grrrr.
