Ordered this as a Christmas present for my wife. I even asked that they choose the best one for her. Took more than a week to arrive in excellent packaging! However, my wife and I were so disappointed when we saw a very tiny cactus unlike the ones featured. Is this the best they got? Seriously?
United StatesBeautiful, healthy, quality cactus!
I don't know where to begin! This is AMAZING! I will start by saying I collect cactus. Out of many online experiences that went incredibly bad I had lost all hope to finding a good online shop. NOT ANYMORE PLANET DESERT TO THE RESCUE! it quickly arrived. they wrapped so well not even a pebble rock was out of place! These cactus were stunningly beautiful!!! My photos won't do them justice! Some had beautiful flower stems just ready to open! Amazed! I'd give a million stars if I could! ❤️ The newest, forever Planet Desert top fan!!!! Happy growing! ❤️
