Florida Beauty and ‘El Choco Red, new babies.  
Care package from plant bestie that made my entire week. They came with a terracotta self watering planter that sadly broke during transit but I will attempt to repair it.

Oh thanks love.. I’m excited for it too! I’m just glad they arrived in good shape. It was traveling for some time.

I got a tracking no. on July 25 so I knew something was coming just not what was in it. Then I found the package in my foyer this morning. My son brought the box in after football practice last night and forgot to tell me? 🤦🏻‍♀️

Was that shipped in a Starbucks cup??? THATS GENIUS 😍

#### Mara replied on 2024-08-02

Yes lol! Most every plant that I have received from my buddy is shipped in Starbucks cups. Cuttings and everything.

#### MtnJungle replied on 2024-08-02

That’s glorious and so smart. So so smart, I’m in a tiny town and Starbucks is our local coffee shop 😂 so I got lots of them cups!!

#### Mara replied on 2024-08-02

They are great for propagating if you have the domes too! 😊

I’m gonna have to start saving more of them!
