Excellent sellar with very good communication, well described item , good value for money, well recommended.
Es una buena oportunidad para disfrutar de un gran ejemplar el trato con el vendedor es correcto y contesta rápido a las preguntas y el envío lo realiza con rrapidez buen empaquetado un placer
Healthy specimen finally arrived, good root ball. Beware of the need to purchase the export certificate if you are from the UK. The extra cost wasn't in the description when I placed the order, it is now after an amendment, though the seller put that right and I didn't have to purchase one. Overall, a good experience with good communication from the seller. Remember, it's coming from Italy so it won't be here tomorrow.
The cactus was just as described. Fast shipping and decent packaging, so far so good. If you buy just one plant from outside of your country, the shipping and health certificate would be expensive. I suggest to buy a few plants at the same time.
The tree arrived in secure and careful packaging, and was the size advertised. It was in good health, with damp roots, and was well protected for its long distance travel per post. We have glorious expectations for this White Ash tree. 🤞💪 It was delivered to the UK free of any known action on the part of customs and botanical health. It took 3 weeks to arrive from date of ordering. It is unknown when it was posted. The football was given a soak before planting into a pot.
25 days once shipped to get to my location (Italy to Hawaii). I purchased the phyto form for customs from this selller. Packaging was okay, could be better. Cactus was wrapped in paper towels and foam peanuts in a large box. I’m satisfied with my purchase. The cactus was exactly as described. Other than a few bent thorns and being dehydrated it looks fine from the top. Root system is small but I think it should make a full recovery with some TLC. I would purchase from this seller again.
Die Pflanze ist in einem guten Zustand geliefert wurden und war gut verpackt. Guter Ebayer, gerne wieder.
Great communication and plant arrived swiftly. Looks as described!
The plant thoroughly packed, in very good condition. Very fast shipping. Very positive experience, highly recommended seller!
Well-packed, premium quantity, I've received about two times more seeds than I've paid. Dispatch time is long, so delivery is not fast, but this does not matter to me. Excellent seller, I recommend.
Gute Qualität, Pflanze wie offeriert, guter Zustand und Aussehen, beste Verpackung für den sicheren Versand. Danke sehr, alles bestens.
Delivered in padded envelope with recorded delivery seeds looks healthy and viable. I would recommend this seller.
Properly packaged with a fast turnaround on very well described plants.
This seller is fantastic, they helped me with the phyto documents which I truly am extremely grateful for!! The plant itself is beautiful and healthy, gorgeous red spines. I've already potted it up. The packing was absolutely out of this world, it took me ages to open it and when I did manage, the plant too was just so well wrapped up, no damage to the spines or roots either. Can't thank this seller enough! Post was expensive but it as come from Italy 🇮🇹 so it will be xx

Exactly as described, fast shipping and ultra good packing. Perfetto!

Cuttings arrived with well established rootballs, extremely well packaged so there was no damage. There was good communication throughout and I am the proud owner of two small feijoa trees. I would definitely use this seller again.
Schnelle Lieferung aus Italien nach Köln, gute 10 Tage. Bestellt wurden 2 chinesische Wildbirnen. Lieferung war bis zum 05.04.25 berücksichtigt, kam aber schon am 01.04.25. Sehr gut verpackt im Karton, mit sehr viel Paketklebeband umwickelt. Karton war dadurch gut stabil gewesen. Die beiden Setzlinge (120cm) waren in einem Wurzelwerk und Blumenerde, in einem schmalen Kunststoff Blumentopf geliefert worden. Die Zweige waren alle sehr elastisch und hatten kleine Blätter an den Zweigen.
Ordered four of these. From Italy to Canada in 5 weeks. They arrived fresh, and were professionally packed, super healthy specimens. I would so do this again. Five Stars. Amazing!
La planta llegó en el plazo establecido y muy bien embalada. El ejemplar es tal y como se veía en la foto. El vendedor responde rápido a los mensajes.
meine erste bestellung bei diesem händler und alles gut ! wie bestellt - so geliefert . sehr gut verpackt , anderthalb wochen unterwegs , alles bestens , 2 . bestellung ist unterwegs . dankeschön .
Great communication, seller very helpful. Plant was healthy with good roots but wasn't the one in the photos and was smaller than the plant listed, but that's not a problem for me. I would buy from this seller again. Thank you!
There were some problems with postage and customs which caused a delay on the way to the UK, but the plants were well packed, so survived the ordeal well. I give 5 stars, as the delay was not the fault of the seller.
