    Did not make it!
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on June 26, 2019*

I knew I was taking a chance ordering live plants. They took over 3 days to arrive and when they arrived the plants were comatose with leaves shriveled and blackened: "the shaken plant syndrome.." Needless to say they did not make it.I did not give up and I drove over an hour and bought 24 plants which are doing very well thank, you very much!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Great plants
  

*by X***X on Reviewed in the United States on May 4, 2019*

Got only 15/18 individual containers with plants but about 6 containers had two plants inside... all plants came alive. The packing was well wrapped 👍.... I would buy again...

### ⭐⭐ 2.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    Fresh but old. Plan for seeds instead of vegetables.
  

*by Y***G on Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2019*

The plants came and I planted them immediately they caught roots quickly but they were old plants so instead of growing into edible vegetables they started seeding. I've planted these and sold it for a living before in my expert opinion these are old.
