Your plants are the BEST.
You get what you pay for! I just love my L&G plants and the pots! I lost one trio star but the other is fine. The anthurium failed to thrive. Too dry in Tucson. I kept it with other plants but….it wanted tropical. I have 6 plants and will surely get more. The packaging is brilliant.
