      WHAT WE CAN'T GUARANTEE

      1. Due to the nature of the product. We don't guarantee our plants will be pests free. ( snails, algae, hitchhikers )

      Took a bit to arrive

      I ordered on the 24th of may, the shipment was sent on the 28th and it arrived 7 days later on June third. It was supposed to arrive on the 31st so I was a bit worried about them being DOA.

      Aside from the Hydrocotyle Tripartita, everything was very healthy and I think (hope) the other will pull through.

      Very disappointed

      I purchased 3 pink flamingo crypts and they came tiny. The plants in the pots were maybe the size of a quarter. Nothing even close to the pics in the description. Not worth the money spent. Very disappointed with what I received.
