Planting Guides
What is a Bareroot,Plant Plug or Potted Plant
A bare root is the root of a plant in a dormant state,and depending on the species,will have eyes or sprouts. It is a plant that is sold with the roots exposed,rather than potted in soil. Bare roots are healthy and usually grow quickly depending on the species. A plant plug is the general term for seedlings or rooted cuttings that have been started in trays of individual cells. Plant plugs have healthy root systems and can be dormant or breaking dormancy. Plugs and bare roots are the most economical way to purchase perennial plants. A potted plant is one that is usually in a 4-6" pot and is well on its way to growing. We rarely offer larger potted plants but those we do offer are those that need a head start,like hydrangeas or other bush-type plants because of their longer growth time.

Reviews for "Red magic peonies: a symbol of prosperity and good fortune"
1. John - 2 stars - I was really looking forward to reading "Red Magic Peony" based on all the hype, but I was ultimately disappointed. The characters felt flat and uninteresting, and the plot lacked any real depth. The writing style was also very simplistic, making it difficult for me to fully immerse myself in the story. Overall, I found the book to be underwhelming and not worth the hype it received.
2. Sarah - 1 star - I can't believe I wasted my time reading "Red Magic Peony". It was one of the most boring books I've ever come across. The pacing was incredibly slow, and the story itself failed to captivate me. The main character lacked any real development, and the dialogue felt forced and unnatural. I struggled to find any redeeming qualities in this book and would not recommend it to anyone.
3. Emily - 2 stars - "Red Magic Peony" had so much potential, but it fell short for me. The world-building was weak, the magic system was underdeveloped, and the overall plot was predictable. The romance felt forced and lacked any real chemistry. I found myself struggling to stay engaged in the story, and by the end, I was left feeling unsatisfied. I wanted to enjoy this book, but unfortunately, it just wasn't for me.
