where are you preordering your rhizomes?

An envelope from ThymeGarden arrived on friday and my four rhizomes made it into the ground today!

I ordered mine this past Sunday from Freshops and they got here Thursday. Thats pretty good considering I live on the Eastern Shore of MD and they were sent from Oregon. The Rhizomes were very large with a decent amount of sprouts. Very happy with the service.

I too ordered rhyzomes from Freshops ( 2 ea. sterling & galena ) in mid- March, and they arrived in four days. I previously pre-ordered ( in late February ) from two other suppliers. One such order arrived a week ago, and the second order arrived yesterday, right in the middle of the worst heat-wave of the year ( record-setting 100 deg. in L.A. ). I had 2 of the required 7 hills ready to go, but I decided to keep them in the fridge for another day, until the heat breaks. Some of the shoots from the second batch had wilted back, even though they got two shots of 2-gallon-hour ( drip ) waterings! If I had it to do over again, I would order the whole enchilada from FH, in order to make my planting schedule fit the weather better. JMHO.
