My birds of paradise plant was wrapped up very securely. On the wrapping was a nice tag that said water me today and instructions for care. Shipping was fast, and my plant looked very healthy. I will definitely order from this seller again

My sister enjoyed the gift my only knock would be is that it was a gift and when she received it the note that was supposed to be in the box was not. Basically came with no note attached mentioned how it was a birthday gift and who it came from. Overall she loved it just wish the personal touch would have been there.

Got this for a mother's day present. My mom was thrilled and impressed how well it looked after being in the hot mailbox before she got home. It's perfect! Wish I had a pic to share but she is 700 miles away 🥰
