United StatesVery impressed
I was blown away by what I received. The plant was perfect and healthy. Further, it was planted exactly as shown online, in a good pot with good soil and small stones on top. It was packed so well, not even a single tiny stone was out of place. I’m used to repotting succulents immediately but it was not necessary this time! I highly recommend Planet Desert!
My mom loved it! She has it in her garden!
