Hello, I think it is useful to say that this pink evening primrose is deadly for the hawk-moth butterflies. This flower from South America is a deadly trap for them, as they can feed on the European evening primrose but not the imported one, where they get their proboscis stuck and struggle until they die. Personally, I have removed this plant. It has been scientifically studied: https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moro-sphinx and also: https://archive.wikiwix.com/cache/index2.php?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww7.inra.fr%2Fopie-insectes%2Fpdf%2Fi148didier.pdf%2Findex.html#federation=archive.wikiwix.com&tab=url That being said, it is a beautiful young plant that can withstand drought, but there are others, you just need to consult your well-made website... Best regards, Brigitte

Prades (66)" would be translated as "Prades (66)" in British English as it is a proper noun and does not require translation.
The plant ordered last February bloomed well in its first year under quite challenging conditions (heat, drought, wind). I took advantage of a new order to get another one with some flowering shrubby cinquefoils in orange, which should be quite nice. At the beginning of the second lockdown, the plant (vigorous) arrived very quickly and in perfect condition. Thank you.

Discovered by accident during an order, it is splendid and has thrived in poor soil, full sun. It is a delight as it flowers for a long time and spreads gracefully.

Beautiful young plant that has abundantly flowered in its first year, even in very challenging conditions (full sun, drought).
The young plant received in good condition has thrived in a very inhospitable corner of the garden, in a very hot and dry location. It has bloomed abundantly from the first year of planting, in short, everything is going well. It seems that it can be invasive, I hope to control the situation. The flowers are a beautiful pink and the result is very gratifying.

CATLLAR" is already in English and does not need to be translated.
Expected plant on Friday and arrived the following Tuesday. That being said, the young plant, which was quite robust, was well packaged and the root ball still moist. Its establishment should not be a problem. I hope not to be overwhelmed...
