Plants are very healthy with a nice size portion. Shipping took a long time, I was worried they would all be dead but they looked perfect. Box was well insulated.

I've ordered from this seller exclusively for several years because I have always had such had a great experience. I received several of the plants and they were very healthy. Shipping was fast and the plants were packaged well. After I placed my order, I contacted the seller because I wanted to add more plants to it. He messaged me back very quickly and he was happy to add the plants to my order.
