This is what I got o my $72.50
I thought sense years ago they always put my pots in the same box for $2.00 and he llimites you to 40 of each so I ordered 80 pots and 6 6 inch hanging which I have before.
I ordred 6 tiny tiiny plants and shipping was $20.00
It said $7.00 something on the box for shipping the plants.Ten I guess they decided to send my pots standard mail for $8.00 7-10 days .
Tis plant name is Ma's Melody Girl
I wanted real bad. Ma's only girl. Is standard African violet plant for $5.00.
Well it's foliage was not healthy 2 leaves off others cracking just came off the sand oh I mean soil was weir too. no roots.
************* I Nanna I read what he puts on his blue sheet he never sent this out before. about in 6 months after the date on the pot or when it blooms. That's funny joke. lol Then right under neath where he says this he says For all plants NEVER ( and he underlines NEVER) use pots significantly larger than their root system-this can lead to overwatering and root-rot.
His plants are so small I can't imagine a standard needed a four inch pot in six months. lol I feel you should be able to buy a standard plant from a Vendor and have it bloom by six months also.
I could just cry :((
