Damaged in shipping
All of my plants were carefully packed, and the directions for opening plants are excellent. In spite of the care taken both in packing and opening, this poor plant arrived damaged. The main plant was on its side, out of the soil, and it's smaller side plants were broken off. I replanted the main plant, which seems to be stable, and I put two of the small plants in peat pods to see if they would survive. They are not doing very well. I have a similar plant from my previous gift, and it is my favorite as it graces me with a lovely purple flower every few months. It also makes smaller plants much like a spider plant. I have had some success potting two of these plants. I plan to gift them to my son, who introduced me to these wonderful plants (although he does not have any himself). I really recommend this plant to everyone. My orchids love it as well as it keeps pests small bugs/flies away from them.
