    This was one of seven plants I ordered for delivery I've never received such well packaged healthy plants & quick delivery with online orders in the past, repotted immediately & it has almost doubled in size in just a couple of weeks, hoping it'll soon be flowering, very happy with all of the plants will definitely be ordering more when I can squeeze them into my garden!
