vishal gujjar –
The plants are small succulents which i actually wanted. I had read the earlier reviews that they are small plants and best suited for my work table. All have been sent separately and neatly packed . My plants have come healthy except for the tiniest one which seems very delicate for the travel. I planted it immediately and it is showing signs that it will survive. Hopefully it will. The tiny is too cute. I am very happy with the purchase and would like to buy more.
