Its circular leaves sprout elegantly from the upright central stem, creating a plant that's not just captivating but also incredibly Instagram-worthy.

Dead on arrival

Unfortunately the first plant they sent was dead on arrival and it was meant to be a gift so it was in the cute pot. They did send out another one but it was in a standard plastic pot and would need to be replanted and there was no way I was going to do that since they are so fragile, so my friend won't get the gift. The 2nd plant has now had 6 stems fall off, I thought it was much better looking and alive, so I don't understand why that is happening. $49 not well spent, wish it would have been better. They did try to make it better and I appreciate that.
