I just received my first order this week. In addition to the Strawberries, I also ordered the Flowering Fern and 3 Black Magic Elephant Ears. All items arrived in healthy condition and well labeled. The product lines give so much variety from the everyday plants to more rare varities. I will definately continue to order from this company.
