Delicate Velvet Leaves

I really love the velvety leaves, It is such a nice plant. There are a few marks / scuffs on the larger leaves but still looks healthy and in good condition. There is a new leaf starting to come through so can’t wait to see that rich red colour before it transitions to green :)

I had reservations about ordering

I had reservations about ordering this plant online as I had heard it doesn’t ship well. I need not have worried however as this beautiful plant came in excellent condition. Plant came with 6 good sized healthy, velvety leaves of a gorgeous dark green hue. Very nice venation on the leaves. The undersides are a warm red/brown colour. I look forward to watching it grow tall and hopefully thrive.

Love it! The plant is

Love it! The plant is super healthy and growing new leaves after less than a month (in January, but in a cabinet). I didn't expect the leaves to be almost velvety and shimmery, so that's a pleasant surprise

The plant was absolutely perfect

The plant was absolutely perfect on arrival. Even though I received an email to say that my plants might be delayed because of the cold weather, they were very quick to arrive. Ordered on Friday, delivered on Tuesday. Perfectly packaged - great plants. Very happy with my purchase.

Great size plant, withstood freezing

Great size plant, withstood freezing temps thanks to dpd delays. It was extremely well wrapped by the excellent people at grow tropicals.

Jess and Otto were amazing in communication as always. Can’t recommend enough

Received the plant promptly, a few scuffs on some leaves but reassured by Jess on the team it was just cosmetic damage. Aftercare and response was really good and plant has since produced a new leaf

Very beautiful plant. I got a baby plant but the leaf is quite big already and has an amazing colour. I had it for two weeks and a new leaf is already coming so can’t wait to see it open.
