Bought on a whim.

Decided to buy on a whim and bought a collection, prompt delivery, securely packaged, excellect conditionand a decent size. Plants as described and pictured, now in a windowsill. One thing, my 2 cats checked the plants out and now avoid them. I can only assume that perhaps they caught their whiskers on the venus fly trap and got a mild shock. I may buy some more plants as gifts.

Quick delivery and good quality…

Quick delivery and good quality products from here plus it came with information on how to keep the plant alive and received more information by email especially making sure you buy the right compost as different plants require different compost which I bought at the same time as ordering the plant.excelent service from ordering to delivery I would buy from here again.

Great Plants, Poor Communication

The quality of the plants is fantastic, deserves 5*!
But communication poor, hence only the 3*s.
Package arrived and on opening the terrarium and associated plants were missing. I had to contact them for answers only to be told no stock.
This was frustrating as that was ordered as a gift ☹️
Refund was issued promptly so will perhaps use them again.
