Absolutely amazing

I've purchased from grow tropicals several times now and I've always been happy with my orders. This time I was particularly happy as the plant was much bigger than expected and was in bloom. 10/10 every time.

Ordered a rare rescue box

Ordered a rare rescue box - the 3rd rescue/imperfect box I've had from Grow Tropicals and certainly not the last! This time I had an anthurium x ferrierense, an alocasia tiny dancer and an adelonema pallidinervium that I've totally fallen in love with. If you like the element of surprise these boxes are a great way to build your collection and introduce yourself to plants you wouldn't normally have looked at!
