So I took a chance and ordered my plant online from Succulent Box. It arrived today and I must say Iām kinda disappointed especially since I was initially skeptical about ordering a plant online. I had to try fixing it over since everything spilled all over. Last pic is me trying to save it. Iām hoping it does better and lives. I named her Eliza. Sheās a Turtle Vine (Pink Lady)
Pics are out of order but hopefully you get the point lol

i got a few plants from them at the beginning of this year and while the shipping definitely leaves something to be desired, all of mine (total of 6) have been doing great. iām sure sheāll be fine :)
1 Like I really think it couldāve been packaged better to prevent the mess but the plant itself was okay so hopefully she lives!
0 Likes absolutely! every time i open one itās dirt allllll over

She sure did clean up nicely! Thatās disappointing about how it arrived though. Iāve yet to order a plant online simply because Iām sceptical about shipping. I hope your beauty thrives!
2 Likes I was too. Iāll try somewhere else next time. I just moved so Iām not too familiar with nurseries nearby so I tried online for the first time.

I hope you let them know how terrible their packaging of plants is. It is possible to send plants with no damage whatsoever. I do it all the time. But it seems most people donāt care. That cute little plant did not need to arrive like that. But tradescantia are very resilient. You can cut them down to the dirt and they just come back prettier.
0 Likes Oh I definitely did! WITH pictures too. This was ridiculous
