## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Wonderful!
*by A***A on September 17, 2025*

The plant was delivered clean and green, in very neat packaging. It looks wonderful, healthy, and the roots are trimmed. A healthy, beautiful plant. Thanks to the seller.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Gorgeous, good quality and growing very well
*by L***Y on September 3, 2025*

Ordered a few and all have done super well! They also arrived in good shape. The purple leaves are very vibrant and have held up nicely without the use of CO2.

### ⭐ $20 for a dead plant
*by A***K on September 2, 2025*

The plant came mostly dead and looked as if it was just a few leaves clipped from a larger plant. There were no roots, it’s was rotting and falling apart. It does not look like the picture and I’m disappointed I spent the money.
