I opened this package up as soon as it was delivered- it was securely packaged, but, there was dirt that was loose in the package. To be fair, I do not think that could have been prevented, but, it came with a nice wooden dowel that was thick, to ensure the plant did not get smashed while in the box.
I set the plant in indirect light for a few days so it could become acclimated to the weather here, but after about a week I noticed many yellow leaves on the bottom. Others have had this issue as well, if you read other reviews. I emailed Costa Farms and they asked me to send them a picture. I did, and they advised that sometimes after receiving a plant, the yellowing of the bottom leaves can occur. I was not impressed. The yellowing kept occurring, and I sent them an updated picture. Their customer service was very attentive and quick to respond. They said that as long as the yellowing leaves were on the bottom, and the rest of the plant looks healthy, it was no issue and the plant would continue growing well. Again, still not impressed.
However, I pruned the yellow leaves and crossed my fingers. New growths kept forming and they were bright and healthy. The yellowing leaves discontinued. This plant has grown tremendously in the past few months and I could not be more happy with it. I encourage anyone who is considering purchasing this to take the chance. At the very least, their customer service was ON POINT!
Inside the decorative planter is a grower's pot, which has drainage holes on the bottom. When the soil is dry, I remove the plant (with the grower's pot) from the decorative planter and water thoroughly until the water flows through the drainage holes. I allow it to sit in my sink, for the excess water to drain. Once it stops draining, I just place right back in the decorative planter. I give it moderate to bright sunlight. This is a very easy plant to care for. Low maintenance, grows quickly and is beautiful. GET THIS!

Enriching the world by bringing plants into everyone’s life

We love plants. It all started in 1961 when our founder, Jose Costa Sr., purchased 30 acres south of Miami to grow fresh, vine-ripened tomatoes. Soon after, that morphed into indoor houseplants. We've spent the past 61 years growing the highest quality plants so that you can decorate your home, gift, and grow plants fresh from our farm delivered right to your home

Dieffenbachia wins awards for its easy-grow nature
A houseplant that needs nearly no care to thrive
All sorts of Dieffenbachias exist in the wild, but in the houseplant world, the traditional version remains popular, and for good reason. It’s downright pretty, with leaves mottled in both green and yellow. It’s a plant in tune with today’s busy lives, needing little care beyond a little water and some light (in fact, avoiding soggy soil may be the one true must-do for this plant). The more light it gets, the more vigorous growth it’ll have, and this tropical doesn’t mind the humidity of a spot like a bathroom either.
Key Points:
- Variegated yellow-and-green foliage
- Minimal water needs, avoid soggy soil
- Tolerates nearly all light levels
- Grows upright to use as a focal point
- Works well with virtually any container style
- A very easy-care houseplant
Put the pretty leaves of Dieffenbachia to work in your houseplant collection

Package arrived looking like someone had run over it with their car!
Luckily, the plant was wrapped up like a straight jacket and didn't suffer from the mistreatment. It lost only about 2 tablespoons of potting soil! After I unwrapped it, I watered it thoroughly and put it in indirect sun. It's perking up nicely! Shipping was fast, the plant was wrapped securely, and it wasn't pot bound or dried out.bi would buy from this seller again!

I was kind of skeptical about ordering live plants in the mail, even after reading all the good reviews here, but I have to say I was very pleased! My plant arrived quickly and looks terrific! Will buy more plants from this seller again!

Another lovely plant! Just like with my fiddle leaf fig, I must admit that initially I was a bit apprehensive about purchasing a plant from Amazon, being unsure of the quality that I would receive. But I decided for the reasonable price, I would go ahead and purchase her as well and I'm happy to say that Costa farms has exceeded my expectations. There was not a leaf out of place or dead. She is full and beautiful! All that I needed to do was wipe a few specs of dirt off of her leaves and give her a bit to drink. 10 out of 10 would recommend

Received my plant today and I'm amazed how beautiful healthy and happy it appears right out of the shipping container. It was packaged with care and this gorgeous plant made it here safe and sound.
