Company didn’t live up to FREE plant!

I bought two of the tiny banana plants. (Cute) Both of them at different times but within 2 weeks of each other. One isn’t doing so well. We will see how it does. They were both packed well for shipping. The 2 stars are for the company. They offered a free plant with 1st purchase. My code didn’t work. And the company gave me the run around. Emailing me the same information I read on the website. DUH! They didn’t fix the issue. Don’t know if I will reorder from this company again.

Hangin' in there!

While the outer leaves started slowly wilting right away, the center leaf (twist leaf) consistently fattened up and appeared greener. I have high hopes for this little one, despite my initial fears!

This plant exceeded my expectations, the soil is still very moist and the plant looks like I grew it myself. To say that this plant had to travel the distance it did it looks awesome. Thank you for sending me such a great banana plant.
