Excellent customer service, packaging

This was my first purchase from nurserylive. I was bit skeptical about buying live plants from nurserylive. It arrived in a very good packaging, actually pretty good packaging. The golden money plant died in two days, jade and snake plants were very healthy. I reported the money plant issue and without any questions they sent a healthy golden Pothos. I would always go with nurserylive

Good condition and well packed

The plants arrived in good condition with labels with care instructions for each of them. Very good packaging. The plants are doing well now. Just as small or big as advertised. The planters are also beautiful. Only negative is that they’re a bit expensive compared to what is available in local nurseries.
