I ordered just one of these for my vivarium, and when I received it much to my surprise there was a small pup attached, so really I got 2 for the price of one! Then about 3 months later, the same thing happened again! it just keeps producing more and more babies giving me even more plants for other vivariums I own. And the color is truly more vibrant than the picture even shows. It's a real showstopper of a plant. Best purchase I've made plant wise for any of my vivaria.
came on time and looked great
This plant is beautiful. The vibrant green contrasting against that babydoll pink is really something.
