Customer Reviews
I didn’t receive the plant that was pictured on their site. HPS’s customer service was great in trying to rectify the issue. I did request for them resend the correct plant, but with my luck that was a fail as well since i was sent the same incorrect plant. However, this time I did request a partial refund, which they’re currently working on.
Funny enough the plant I received from them isn’t pictured anywhere on their site.
DOA
This is a great little plant. It arrived quicker than expected which is great! It arrived healthy and is loving its new home!
