This is a beautiful little starter plant, it arrived in perfect condition and is doing so well I decided to buy another one. Love the vibrant pink and green leaves. I look forward to watching it grow to be a gorgeous full grown plant.
March 2024 FOLLOW UP REVIEW:
Don’t waste your money, I loved the first plant so much I bought another one, shortly after I got the second plant, the first one shriveled up and died, seemed like the second plant was doing great but now it’s shriveling. I spent a total of $50 on these pretty plants, to be left with nothing. Very disappointed.

Arrived healthy and grows beautifully!
This is by far my favorite plant in my collection. It was shipped beautifully…no issues with the little plant even though it was in transit for a few days. Let me tell you how much this little plant has flourished since I got it a couple of months ago… it is hands down the most striking and gorgeous plant I’ve ever seen. Not even one brown leaf. The foliage is a beautiful hot pink and green. Coming from a plant lady… this was probably the best plant purchase ever!

Cute and healthy plant however, it is much smaller in real life than what is advertised in the picture.

I have ordered from several different places and i' m sorry to say that this was the most disappointing. My extremely small plant was not protected as well as the other companies I have bought from. Cute plant. Hope it survives and thrives. I don't think I will be ordering again. The price does not match the size of the plant.
