Reviews

So far everything is great, Wedding Party shipped well with no damage/broken stems or leaves. I'm grateful you had this plant in stock because my daughter has wanted one for 2 years now, and you were one of the few who had this in stock when I was searching for it! Thank you Garden Crossings!
