Top quality cacti. Carefully packed. I love that the proper taxonomy names, not just the cutesy names are used. It allows you to properly research how best to nourish your plants. I would purchase every one of the plant, if I had the space.
The plants arrived in good condition
I have received the plants and were nicely packaged.
