I ordered two of these for my terrarium and the look fantastic. They were packaged very nicely and not damaged. I cant wait to add them to my terrarium.
I bought one several months ago. It has been doing so well and is very interesting so I bought another. The new one is twice the size and even nicer! It seems to hold up well to my gecko landing on it and doesn't mind having water on it's leaves so it's great for crested geckos. Can't wait til they both get even bigger!
I really wanted a fern for my vivarium and decided on getting this one for a shady back corner. It arrived healthy and is doing great a couple weeks later. Can’t wait to see how it grows.
I ordered 2. Both came in great shape and not any damage from the cold or the travel.
