Beautiful
Posted by Shayne on 3 Apr 2022Purchased two cups expecting to not receive that much. I had previously ordered some off another site and only got two tiny little leaves. Holy buckets! The cups were packed full of beautiful full grown plants. The roots are so long and the leaves in great shape. They even have tiny little flowers! And it’s difficult to get this plant to bloom! It’s only been a week and they are already starting to spread. Would totally purchase again! Never buying from anywhere else.

Red Root Floaters
Posted by Unknown on 29 Mar 2022The floaters arrived alive and with some really long roots. They were pretty dried out but seem to be doing well so far. Overall, I am happy with what I received .
