      WHAT WE CAN'T GUARANTEE

      Even though our plants are very clean, but we can't guarantee they will be 100% pest-free because we cannot be responsible for your aquarium. Please use it at your own risk. We recommended all customers rinse the plants with clean water and quarantine them before use.

      However, plants in tissue culture will be 100% free from pests, algae and never have been contacting with any aquarium.

      1. Due to the nature of the product. We don't guarantee our plants will be pests free. ( snails, algae, hitchhikers )
      2. We don't guarantee our plants will be free of pesticides. We use homemade, organic pesticides in our greenhouse to control pests. We do not use pesticides that contain copper. Copper is toxic to invertebrates such as aquatic snails, crabs, shrimps, etc
      3. We don't guarantee your aquarium success or are responsible for your aquarium inhabitant including but not limited to fish, shrimp, snail, turtle, etc. So please quarantine all plants when use!

      First time online buyer

      Plants came in great. Nice clean crisp. Rooted plants had nice systems. They start growing after two days of planting. That is when I started to see the changes in a positive way.
      I'll be a return customer. Shipped in a timely manner. Keep up the good work and keep investing into your products. People will return.

      Stout and healthy

      Surprised how tiny they were, but they’re also very healthy with substantial root nubs. Clearly well loved, as they’ve got sturdy stems and leaves. Been a few weeks and they have taken a little bit to acclimate to the blackwater tank, but they’re growing now. Snails are uninterested in munching them. All in all good

      Beautiful Fast Grower

      Love this plant; it has remained very healthy from the start and I'm seeing new leaves every day. Love how low and bushy it grows, with dark, bark-like stems. It looks like a little garden shrub. I received a larger plant along with a smaller one and they're both doing very well.
