United StatesBefore I placed my order I reached out to Succulents Box for help with my other plant. They took the time to share tips with me. That’s when I knew this was the company I wanted to do business with. My succulents arrived in perfect condition with more than enough soil. I will forever be a customer of Succulents Box.
United StatesThis was my first order with Succulents Box and I’m very happy with the experience. The Crassula Brevifolia arrived in excellent condition, it actually had blooms, which was so nice to see. It came packaged very nicely and with a little care card, which was helpful. I totally overlooked where it says these plants are shipped bare root, so I wasn’t quite prepared to pot them up upon receipt. That was my mistake, but I thought I would mention it in case anyone else overlooked that detail. I just put them in a dark place on a tray and lightly misted them for a couple days until I could pot them. My new brevifolia is now doing great in a south facing window under a grow light, along with the donkey’s tail and giant watch chain I also got from Succulents Box. I will definitely order again!
