Reviewed 21st August 2019 by Sarah A bit hit and miss to be honest! I bought six altogether and only one plant produced a flower spike. The others seem to have died despite my best attempts to nurture them which is a bit disappointing. Reply from the Sarah Raven Team:"Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear that your Lupin's failed to grow and have refunded you for them." Posted 22nd August 2019 |

Reviewed 5th August 2019 by Lynn Good, fast service and really good plants, I have never had much luck with lupins before but these have been really pleasing. |
|
Reviewed 31st July 2019 by Kate A good plant when arrived. It flowered later than ‘The Pages’ and was much more susceptible to slug damage so the flowering period was much shorter. |
|
Reviewed 31st July 2019 by John Lost to garden pests, so did not really see it in bloom and mature. |

Reviewed 31st July 2019 by Marilynn would not have bought if I had seen in a nursery, but probably as described in catalogue |

Reviewed 3rd October 2018 by Barbara I should have complained on opening this . The re was no way this specimen was ever going to survive as it was shrivelled. Sadly I didn't complain as most of the plants I receive from you are very good . I tried every method of resuscitation to no avail!!
