Reviews
I have bought numerous plants several times from this seller.
All the plants have been beautiful, fresh & in perfect condition. They arrive in separate bags with the name of the plants on (very useful) & a little water in to keep the plants alive. The bags are secure so they don't leak.
My aquarium maintenance guy (I am disabled & can do a limited amount myself) & he was amazed at the quality.
Communication is fast & friendly.
I won't go anywhere else for my plants
