Love it!

I had a couple of problems but these guys are so great at resolving issues! First, I ordered several plants and this one was missing when the package arrived. I let them know and they immediately sent out the missing plant! Next issue was my own. I thought they sent the wrong plant because the picture is a full mound and I received a single stem. I asked about it. Nd they explained! I love it and it’s healthy and planted. Woohoo!
