  • Big Ears Lamb’s Ear 5

    Posted by RFH on Oct 12 2023

    Excellent condition, harder to find (in Fall) perennial which was competitively priced for end of season.

    Another healthy plant that had no wilting from shipment. Plants are very well packed and ready to plant in the garden or boot up to a larger pot for planting at a later time.
