Jeff –
I ordered 2 Trumpet Vines and got them on June 18th and planted them the same day. As of today, June 24th, they are already sprouting leaves! The roots arrived in excellent condition. If you order these they will look like dead sticks ( the roots are plump and moist packed in a moisture holding material that you can just dump in the hole you where you plant them). Be patient as they will sprout soon. I highly recommend Cold Stream Farm. This was the first time I ordered with them and am very pleased with the quality of their product.
