Don’t buy because plant is infected and broken and all reviews are fake like same (i loved all the products). They will not return and refund they will see your mail after 2or 3 day and said they can’t refund because of policy to refund only in 48hrs. They are doing scam and also trap customers with 1rs offer but not send the item. You will not do anything because you already paid the bill thats why they don’t offer home delivery because they know the are fraud.
