Pandan (1-Pack) Live Plant by Wellspring Gardens | Pandanus Amaryllifolius | Exquisite Fragrant Herb/Spice Great for Southeast Asian Cooking

Bought the pandan plant and I’m very happy with it! Thank you for the thoughtful packaging, it was packed very securely and arrived in excellent condition. The plant looks very healthy and well cared for. Going to repot it soon. I can’t wait to watch it grow bigger and start harvesting fresh pandan leaves for my cooking. Highly recommend!

I live in an apartment and it was delivered to the apartment mailbox in a timely matter. If left too long in the mailbox, it would dry out and die. I repotted mine the next day. The roots filled the container it came with. Do not over pot the plant. For a plant that would thrive in a tropical habitat, nearly anything would kill this plant in America. Pandan likes shady areas with bright light. Direct sunlight will yellow the leaves and the plant will die. Over watering or under watering, it will die. Too much wind, it will die. If water gets trapped between the foliage, it would die, so don't leave it under the rain. Poor drainage would rot the roots. Sudden temperature change, you guessed it, it would die. Let the roots fill and hit the bottom of the pot. That would cause it to sprout new seedlings, either from between foliage or at the base of the plant. Seedlings can then be transplanted when sufficient roots are seen. That won't be any time soon since this plant is still very small. At least a few years til that happens. The condition of the plant people received might be due to where they live. I love the plant I received. It was in perfect condition. I live in San Diego.. Until it is well developed or cooked, there wouldn't be any pandan smell. Hope this helps some people.

When I open the box, it’s look like toothpick, super tiny!!! even though the grass from the street bigger than this! How ever, don’t waste ur money to choose this provider!

Sweet little guy arrived a few months ago and is thriving and several time larger and very healthy. No flavor or scent detectible; hoping as it matures this will develop.

Very nice packing. Plant looks great

We aren't sure what happened both times, but the pandan died in the hands of my experienced parents. The first one was indoor in my home for a week alongside other, young plants and herbs, and when I finally handed it over to my parents that weekend, they noticed that the center was already browning and that some of the leaves easily came off. That came as a surprise to me as the plant arrived in a fairly green/green-yellow state. A few days later, they said the plant died (they had kept it outside in indirect sunlight during the day and brought back inside overnight when temperatures fell to 60F). They said that the leaves completely came loose when tucked on. Seller was sympathetic and indicated that sometimes things happen and graciously sent a second plant that arrived in fairly green/green-yellow condition. I gave it to my parents two days after delivery and told them to keep it indoor overnight and in indirect sunlight during the day until it grew enough to be repotted and kept outside. A week later, dad informed me that it, too, had died. Symptoms: the same as before. Leaves plugged off easily with the center completely mushy and brown. Perhaps we did something wrong, but the directions didn't say to do anything special. We kept the soil semi-moist with good drainage, out of direct sunlight and cold evening temperatures. When asking the seller for tips on what we may have possibly done wrong with the 1st shipment, we were told to add fertilizer. We did that for plant #2, but it too, died. My parents' other plants and herbs have continued to grow, but the pandan just did not work for us. Seller said that because a replacement was sent, there was nothing more they could do for us. I'd be interested to know if anybody else in Southern California was able to grow this successfully between late December to mid-January.

Arrived well. Looks bigger in pictures

The live plant arrived in very good conditions. I was very happy with the plant and followed the simple instructions provided by the seller in caring for the plant. It is doing well so far and has grown bigger from the time I received it. I also was provided with a package of tropical plant food so I used it when I planted it in a pot. Updates on November 9, 2021: This plant is doing great after I bought it six months ago. See how big it has become int he last photo. It smells good (just like a panda plant should smell), especially when I must it with some fresh water.
