## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Healthy plants for a fair price
*by E***N on May 13, 2025*

My plans arrived yesterday and even though they spent a whole day in the mailbox they did really good. I was surprised how the soil was very moist, healthy with no pesky fungus gnats and both plants had some cute little 🍃green leafs. The stems looked healthy and in great shape. Sadly one plant lost a few leafs during the shipping, but that happens since plants are very sensitive. The condition of the plants look really good, and I feel like at this point if they don't make it, it will be because of the new soil, environment, and definitely the weather and not the supplier. Sometimes i read reviews where people get their plants in great shape, but later on the plants don't make it and they blame the business, but in all reality if the plant arrives healthy like mine did, it means the person who bought the plant did something wrong after arrival, the soil conditions, pests that come in most soils bought from the stores like fungus gnats. I'm very happy and satisfied and will purchase more plants from this place in the future. For the price, I think these are great investments. Hopefully my plants will adapt and thrive. 👏👍👍👍👍

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The most important thing that it’s healthy
*by T***  on May 24, 2025*

The media could not be loaded. This person exactly how to raise plans from seedlings and able to ship it out fresh at our live to their customers. I recommend this plan to anyone that planting garden.

### ⭐ Terrible. Avoid at all costs!
*by M***. on July 19, 2024*

The item arrived DOA. The leaves were all wilted and proceeded to all fall off in a quick matter of time leaving this little one with ZERO viable leaves. The soil was absolutely flooded when I opened the bag and I suspect that that had something to do with it. BE AWARE!!!! This is NOT a tree grown from seed. This is NOT a seedling. Upon inspection I discovered that this is simply a twig that was placed in rooting hormone that was coaxed along to shoot out some roots. More often than not this type of propgation does not survive depending on the species of plant. Even if id does you are growin from a BRANCH and the plant has real uphill battle. This is NOT a mature seeding! I feel absolutely scammed. Looking at the reviews of others I see that I was not the only one. What a disaster! I paid a lot of money for a twig. Again, I stress...this is not propagated from seed. This is simply a scion CUTTING. In layman's terms that is just a branch dipped with powder chemical (rooting hormone) to get it to grow. The item came infested with insects as well and should be garbage bound on arrival as not to infect the rest of my houseplants. What a failure! I am asking for a refund. For the all of the money to have to find out that you purchased a 3 inch size TWIG and not a tree that really is shocking. DOA and a horrible experience. I was a first time buyer from the seller and was skeptical at first, however, I decided to give it a go. Do I absolutely regret that. I buy many plants online and have vast experience with the purchase/shipping process, quality, handling, and honestly of the described plants orgins and conditions. I should state loudly that there are MANY other vendors out there that will sell you a true to form plant that from I read is double the size and for less money. Go somewhere else and save yourself some time, grief and aggravation!AVOID AT ALL COSTS AND DO NOT GET SCAMMED!
