The new plants appear healthy and are doing well. They were a little smaller than I expected. A picture of the actual size in the container would be good to see.

The plants were very small and expensive for the size. I paid $35 each for foxwoods that were barely 10 inches tall. Maybe 1 branch was taller. I subsequently went to the nursery and saw boxwoods that were over a foot tall and mature for $20. Had I seen those before purchasing from Home Depot, I would have saved approx $800 overall.

I have three and they are beautiful, think if ordering another. They will protect my azaleas from too much sun which I bought also from Home Depot.

    I ordered 10 of these last summer, I'm in the recommended zones, and did everything right, used peat, watered, fed. Most did not look like 2 gallon size, so I was disappointed. After one season, more than half were not only yellow after winter, but did not come back, had very little new green growth, and were essentially almost dead. Had to return most of them. I've purchased other plants from them and Home Depot with no problems, but these did not work out.

      The plants were well packaged and healthy when they arrived. They were somewhat smaller then the picture implied. I think a better size (height and width) description is in order. In any event, they look good.
