Came healthy and happy
I bought 2 in early summer. They grow pretty slowly. One caught a little bit of mold or fungus, but is doing just fine. The other has been bright green and completely healthy for the last couple of months. Very few new shoots, but that's the plant for you.The seller sends you a perfectly acceptable plant with good instructions. Just take it slow and steady and don't go crazy with these guys and they'll do just fine.Picture 1 shows the plant that has mild problems on the bottom and the super healthy one on top. Picure 2 shows the new growth after about 3 months.I haven't learned the plants and their needs yet, but the seller gives you a solid starting point.

5 months later still alive and well
The first photo was 10 days from when I received it. The second photo is how it looks approx 5 months later. Not much growth but still healthy!I initially purchased this lovely tree during the winter. From the day it shipped, it did not make it home until 8 days later (courtesy of USPS delays). I was concerned because I know the heat pack doesn't last that long but to my surprise it survived the trip. I had to pinch off a yellow leaf not shown in the photo but other than that I repotted it the same day and it has been doing well since. *Note: It is not recommended to repot it that soon but that's because I hadn't read the memo beforehand, yet it survived anyways.In short, would definitely recommend. Excellent customer service and response time too!

Not worth the price
I’d suggest buying one from Home Depot that is 15x larger for $10 more

Fantastic!!!!
When I received the product originally, it was dead, but they contacted me because they knew USPS delayed the delivery, and they immediately replaced it without question. The second plant was beautiful and healthy. I could not be happier, not only with their product, not only with the service but also with the wonderful level of caring they for their clients. I highly recommend using them!!!! I will again.

Smaller than I imagined, but very healthy.
I want it to grow into a bush that I can use in Thai recipes.

Little tree as described
Arrived carefully packed. There was a free seed and some fertilizer. Plant looked very fresh. At one point I thought it was a plastic because it was looking very shiny. So I waited for over 2 weeks to see any growth. Finally a new leaf has sprouted. My little tree looks happy 😀👌. I am going to germinate the free seed that came with the shipment. Will be updating if any results.I was told by someone that the price was too much. Not sure if that is true. But I m happy with my little tree!

Disappointed
I bought two of these for Christmas presents for “plant lovers” I know. I also purchased two full spectrum lights per the recommendation and I followed the instructions to a “T” until gifting these on the holiday.They looked good Christmas Day. However, both parties had dead trees by February.To be fair, it’s possible they didn’t place the light exactly 12 inches away, keep them under light for the recommended time per day, or spritz the leaves properly.But since they both said they followed instructions and every other plant in their houses are alive and well, I’m leaving 3 stars.

Arrived quickly and was well packed
My tiny would be tree looks healthy and in good shape. A very minor quibble is that there were planting instructions on a small piece of paper that I completely missed. My tree got transplanted immediately, when apparently I should have waited a month. Fingers crossed that it won’t matter.FWIW, the instructions also suggested using a grow light for the first year.
