Comment: I love the not-so-common plants GrowJoy offers. My 5 plants arrived in excellent condition and are thriving in my garden. I can’t wait until Spring to see some growth and beautiful foliage!

Comment: All of the other plants I ordered arrived healthy and in great condition, this was the exception. It was barely alive and so so tiny...and it's still barely alive and struggling. Really disappointed in such an unhealthy baby plant.
