I'm in love with this plant. Definitely my new favorite in my collection! Came with a brand new leaf too. 100% would order it again!
I ordered two ficus “moonshines” both came in three days! They arrived in amazing condition and packaged wonderfully. One of them as already given me a new leaf!
I ordered some plants for my cousin in AR for her Bday. I asked them to write a special Happy Birthday note and they wrote it big on the box! Also, the day the package was due to arrive AR had their first snow and it was freezing but the plants were so well packaged that no damage happened and they arrived beautiful and healthy.
Have had the plant for a while now and it is doing perfect! Came in looking great and has had lots of new growth
I love my shiv! It arrived in perfect shape and has been growing like a champ.
