When I first received my order in the mail, several of the plants had mites and mealy bugs. However, after contacting the seller, I received a replacemrnt package in the mail--very promptly--with 30 new healthy cuttings! I was very dissatisfied with the first bunch, but now I'm super happy with the lovely bunch of plants I've ended up with. Beautiful variety of succulents, excellent customer service, zero complaints!
Whoa!! I did not expect to love this soooo much. I am a plant person, so I knew I was getting a box of succulent trimmings from the opposite coast during the winter :/ Anxiously awaiting their arrival, but after reading some reviews, I didn't expect much. Imagine my surprise when I opened a small box to find it chock-full of the most vibrant, glorious, exquisite treasures of succulents I have ever seen! You wont find these at the garden center and would cost a ton if you purchased them potted at a local nursery. Like I said, I love plants, so it was really like the best Christmas present EVER! And one of the best Amazon purchases ever - coming from an Amazon-aholic. Thank you lovely people from Rainbow, CA for making my mail ordering live plant dreams come true!!! So many cool varieties that ive never seen and I have so many that I can share with the neighbors ❤🌳
I ordered 15 and received 19 cuttings. They aren't all different, but there are 15 distinct plants so I don't mind having the extra four be duplicates. All the clippings were calloused over when they arrived so they are ready to plant. It remains to be seen how well they'll take to the terrarium I have filled with succulent soil.
Update: I can't tell if they have roots yet or not but they look fine and one of them even has flowered! I think they're going to do well.
I got these about a month ago, and the pictures I've attached are from about a week after I planted them.
While I knew I was getting 10 cuttings, I don't think I realized how much I'd get and how big the cuttings would be. I thought they were going to be really tiny. But they were beautiful and super healthy!
I went around my house to find jars to put them all in. I planted them about a month ago. I don't think I did a very good job, as I sort of just placed them and didn't really "plant" them. The one in the 4th picture doesn't seem to be rooted yet, as it moves a bit if I jostle it, but it's doing great as are the rest of them.
A couple of them have grown new stalks like 2 inches tall and it's only been a month! A couple of the leaves died, but the rest of those cuttings are doing great, and growing. I am pretty sure this is natural and to be expected.
I used terrarium kits to make sure I had all the right stuff for them to grow in. (see below)
I keep these in open jars since they are succulents. The moss is from my garden and it's also doing great, growing already. :)
When I get more jars and stuff, I will definitely order from this company again. :)
I got 2 of these: Cute Farms Terrarium Starter Kit, Large: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B0751MP14B/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title
These succulents are the cutest things ever! They are all in good condition and there are no repeats. They are all different colors and sizes. Each one looks healthy and ready to plant. They will make super cute additions to my home. I am very happy with this purchase!

How to grow succulents/cactus from cutting and bareroot
1. A cutting must be calloused over before planting, meaning the stem cut end of the pad is dry and has sealed itself over in order to protect itself. It usually takes 3-7 days to be calloused, cactus may take longer to calloused
before planting.
2. Open up your box immediately upon your succulents/cactus cutting/bareroot/whole plant arrival. Never expose your succulents/cactus under direct sun when arrival.
3. Use cactus/succulents mix soil or well drains soil, before planting moist the soil then plants your cutting ½-2 inches into the soil.
4. Place it in a warm, airy location under indirect sunlight, filtered sunlight or shaded area after planting. Water it 5-10 days later after planting depending on condition. The cutting usually would develop root anywhere from
2-6 weeks. Bareroot succulents/cactus would develop root faster. Never place your newly planted succulents/cactus under direct sun.
5. Once the root system established, the plant would then start to show new growth. Succulents do best under bright filtered sunlight, to get better color some varieties might need to grow under direct sunlight. Succulents color
may vary time to time and seasons.
Please Notice: It is difficult to display the exact color online as the cameras, lighting, exposure, and equipment can all affect the outcome of the picture. Leaves color might change time to time depending on the amount of sunlight

I definitely received more than 10 in my box. They were packaged well and looked beautiful, even though the weather here is below freezing. I’m not sure that they will all survive, but I believe this will have more to do with my knowledge of baby succulents, and nothing to do with the product itself. I will say that if you are a green thumb you would be able to propagate dozens of lovely plants from this one box of plants. This was a good purchase.
I was hesitant at first because getting a bunch of plants in a box doesn't seem like the way to garden, but they are all successfully transplanted to cute little pots now and are doing fine! There are 10 different types of succulents, all different shapes and sizes!
I ordered “15 assorted varieties succulent cuttings”. They were decent sized cuttings (2-4”). No two were alike. I also received a couple extra cuttings in my package. They arrived within 4 days of ordering, which is just right for transplanting the cuttings into soil.
These are the cutest things they really spruce up the room, I thought they came with the pot but it’s ok that they don’t I just got one from the 99 cent store. Only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because I felt the picture was slightly misleading but I really love the succulents!
First off, when I ordered it contacted the company about some concerns and they were wonderful to work with. A couple days after shipping they sent an email with instructions on how to care for and plant the clippings. Upon opening the box I ended up with 9 extra clippings, and only 5 were doubles, so I have 24 unique clippings. The plants were packed carefully and there was minimal leaf dropping. Everything looks healthy and scabbed over and ready to plant! I'm so excited!
