So frustrated! I haven't bought plants online in about five years because last time I did it they all arrived dead. Finally decided to brave it and try again. They were supposed to arrive today. According to tracking they were put in my mailbox. They weren't!! I don't live in an area where they be'd stolen. Called the post office and they checked with the driver and said they'd call me back. Didn't hear anything. I quit!! My poor babies are probably sitting in someone else's mailbox and it's supposed to be in the 30s tonight. 🤦🏼‍♀️

    Oh that’s sad. I feel your pain. Where did you order from

      I don't remember the exact name but it was a succulent store on Etsy.

    Problem with some delivery companies it’s packages get thrown around, I plan to get some plants online that I can’t find in any of the garden centers and plant shops. But they can be expensive, so might have to try out 1 online company and buy a cheaper plant to see how it comes packaged. Did come across a rare Alocasia corm (look at cost-it’s just a corm not a plant) I do want to get the Alocasia venom

    This happened with my Hoya compacta variegata. Took about 10 days. It’s not doing well and I’d like to order another one but don’t want to wait again like you said with cold temps.
