Received an order of 48. Intercepted delivery driver and immediately unwrapped. Plants are packed very securely with paper shreds to protect delicate leaves and then Saran wrapped to keep firm.Great variety of succulents and decorative pots - gold, white, gold polka dots and gold rim.Each plant is also in a plastic aerated pot which can be removed from the decorative pot for watering / drainage purposes.Very pleased with this item and would recommend.

Other than the fact that the delivery driver had the boxes on their sides when they are very clearly marked to keep them top up, they arrived 1 day earlier than expected, which is great!They were all alive. Only a few dead leaves to be removed and of course, the soil was dry and needed watering just as the instructions in the box say they will be. I HIGHLY recommend that you open them outside or in your greenhouse as some of the dirt is loose within the box. Other than that, the only somewhat negative is that some of the plants seem to have less dirt than others, but that’s why you can buy soil!Great product. Highly recommend. These will be for decoration and party favors at an event.Thank you!

Bought these to make table decorations/ favors for my daughter’s birthday at a restaurant. I read a lot of reviews and the majority were good, so I crossed my fingers and placed the order. They had to be good because they were arriving the night before and I still had to repot & wrap them.They arrived just before dinner and as you can see the box was damaged. It was also damp because it had rained. Thankfully the plants were well protected with paper shredding and plastic wrap. I cut off the plastic and very carefully removed the paper. The plants looked good, though one did have a broken leaf (I potted the leaf and hope it grows, so maybe got another plant out of that).I repotted the plants into these adorable pots with bamboo saucers, added a few glass pebbles to match the birthday theme colors, and packaged them into clear bags.She was thrilled with them! And so was I! So much that this may become my go-to for small gifts and group gifts.I wouldn’t hesitate to buy them again.

I have ordered succulents online from several companies, but I had a couple of bad experiences with one of my favorites, so I decided to take a chance on Costa Farms. I knew the plants would be tiny, which is ok...but at least one looked more like a pup that had been hastily yanked from the parent plant, and appeared more as half of a plant rather than a whole plant. Still, I could work with that. I know that these succulents go through rough treatment in shipping, so I am also prepared for the possibility of bruised and beaten plants (some of which these were). But that's the risk of ordering online. Half of the plants were dry and the other half were soaked. The dealbreaker for me was BUGS. When I pulled the first plant out of the shipping box, the bugs came out with it. In FORCE. They were tiiiiiiiny, fast-moving insects (they looked like white mites of some sort but not mealybugs--however, I'm not yet an expert at identifying the differences). What I do know is that there should be no creatures of any sort enjoying existence at the expense of plants that I paid for. (And they were a bit on the pricey side.) I tried and tried to get photos of the bugs, but they were so tiny and fast that I didn't succeed. I should have taken a video, maybe. But...I am disgusted. I contacted Amazon, following the directions from Costa Farms, and requested a replacement, so we will see if that gets shipped, and without extra passengers. I am really dreading the pricier succulent from Costa (Whale Fin Sansevieria) that should arrive in a couple of days. I know I should have taken the more cautious approach with a new company, but I just got too excited to wait (this was, of course, ordered before the arrival of the bug infested plants). So if the Whale Fin fails and the replacement tinies (should they be shipped) are unhealthy, that's it for me and Costa Farms. Also, lesson learned: open the box and do initial inspection outside, awayyyy from your house if at all possible. At this point, I am going to be walking them to the next block over and opening them on the street (we live in a cul-de-sac) to lessen my stress that any bugs will find their way to my backyard plants or, far worse, my indoor succulents. I'm just so sad about this! What a huge bummer!Update: the Whale Fin failed, but that's for a different review. The six little replacements, which did indeed ship, also failed. I did remember to open them outside this time. It looked like they had drowned before I even opened the box. NOT because of transit; the box was totally intact and dry, as was all of the paper packing. I met the UPS delivery driver at the door and received my package directly from their hands. I'm not sure who is responsible for packaging Costa plants, but please stop drowning these fragile 2-inch plantlets. Why would you give these little would-be beauties so much water, then tightly package them without giving them any time to dry? I understand that you don't want them to dry and die on their journey, but succulents are far more tolerant of not receiving water than they are of a full pre-packing soak. Most of them were so fragile and wet that they fell apart in my hand. You can see in one of my photos how oversaturated the root system was for that plant. Another photo shows black roots. They are not dark because they are covered in dirt; I worked on this one for a while in search of healthy roots. Finding none, I was forced to throw it away. Similar situation for all. In a couple of cases, just touching the plants caused leaves to fall. I was left with what looked like half or a third of a plant, and a roughly treated one, at that. So disappointing, especially since, from what I could tell (identifying succulents missing most of their leaves is tough), there was some variety among the six, including a couple that I don't already have. On the other hand, there were two that looked like offsets (for example, the aloe in my second order and the haworthia fasciata in the second order). They came with just a few leaves each.

The plants are beautiful

These were nice, healthy looking succulents but many of them were damaged. Anytime you ship a plant its understandable that they might get damaged. They were still a good size and usable though. The packaging was nice, i could seperate it with ease from the plants, and the functionality was perfect for making succulent gardens.

Perfect!! The came packaged well, all plants were great! Maybe one or two needed a little nursing back to health. But great deal for all these plants.

Fantastic! All arrived healthy and well packed. As soon as I got them I watered them. They made a great house warming gift for my new neighbor and I had enough little beauties to make a few for my house!
