It was a pleasant and lovely experience. I love the fact that you subscribe what type of blooms they are in color. Well packaged and it's a plus that you have a name tag for each one. And fast shipping. Thank you.

All of the cactus I ordered from Planet Desert were very well packed and arrived in perfect condition. They also looked like what was pictured on the website. Will definitely be ordering from them again.
