Coming with good conditions, gorgeous varieties! Love them!
I'm a highschool teacher and a little over a year ago I was looking for a online source to buy succulents for greenhouse projects in class. From the day I placed my order Marissa at Fat Plants has been working hard to take care of our needs. She took the time to consider the fact the plants were shipping to North Dakota and packaged them accordingly. She checked in to make sure things went well and that we were satisfied. After she found out the order was for students she offered her assistance and expertise freely. She was even willing to mentor one of my students that was pursuing a career in a related field. Lastly, her product is second to none and my students are always excited to open the next package to see what awesomeness has arrived.
Plants came rather quickly and were packaged well, with a heat pack to protect from the cold.
The seller included a nice note and a neat magnet, which I appreciated.
I am for the most part happy with the variety that I received.
All but one of them appear to be healthy. The one plant that does appear to be in ill health, I don't particularly care for this species of succulent anyhow so I am not too upset.
Note that my picture includes most of the plants that I received (two days after I received them), but they have been repotted. The larger, purple plant in the center was a plant I previously owned and did NOT come from this purchase.
The best thing is that this 2nd order has beautiful variety.
I would definitely recommend this product to anyone who is looking for beautiful succulents. I have ordered from
other sellers before and have been really disappointed because their pictures didn’t really coincide with the product that was delivered.
To top that you get a personal note from the seller 😊❤️
I am so impressed my my succulent shipment! It was so much fun opening the box-- from the hand written cards to the BEAUTIFUL (and secure) packaging-- it was like Christmas morning! I ordered a box of 18 plants-- all are in excellent condition and each one is different. I am very impressed and cannot wait to order more! Amazing! Thank you!
Feature Product
- NO DUPLICATE VARIETIES: Packages up to 30 succulents will not contain more than 1 of any given cultivars. Unique and healthy succulent plants are hand selected from our greenhouse the day they ship, minimalizing the time spent in a dark box. We do not guarantee the exact plants in the product photo as our selection varies based on time of year, temperature, availability, health and size of the plant.
- EASY TO CARE FOR: Succulent plants require minimal care. Bright light, well-draining soil and minimal watering is required to keep your succulents happy. Most do well in temperatures that do not drop below 40 degrees as outdoor plants and almost all will do well indoors with bright light from a window or a grow lamp. Our plants are greenhouse grown and will need to acclimate to full sun, please refer to our free e-book that accompanies each order for more information.
- SHOWERS, WEDDINGS, GIFTS, PARTY FAVORS: Our 2 inch fat plants work great for wedding or home décor, shower decoration or party favors. Use these miniature plants as place settings, take-away gifts or just to brighten up any room.
- DISH GARDEN PLANTS: Cactus and succulent plants make excellent dish garden additions, bring life to fairy gardens, and are therapeutic. Watch your children plant their own gardens and learn about succulents as they grow, flower and duplicate. Most succulents are easy to propagate and a fun and exciting way for kids to learn about plants.
- FAT PLANTS SAN DIEGO: a family owned, California licensed nursery and grower.
Description
This package contains varieties of fully rooted succulent plants in plastic growers pots. Varieties will vary from season to season and packages will contain a good mixture of color, textures and shapes. Pot size will vary between 2 and 2.25 inches, between round and square and in color. Many succulents will lose some of their color if they are not getting adequate light. Traveling in a box for 2 to 3 days will absolutely fade your new plants however they will regain their brightness with proper care over time. We suggest opening the bottom of your plants gift boxes and slide them out slowly for the least amount of damage when unpacking. Some of the succulents in your package will have a layer of spaghnum or preserved moss over their soil. We do suggest removing this before watering and replanting as it can retain more water than a succulent needs and cause the lower portion of your plant to rot. Quick instruction cards and access to our Cactus and Succulent eBook are included with every order. Varieties in this package may contain aloe, sedum, kalanchoe, echeveria, senecio and more. We rotate over 200 varieties of cactus and succulent plants in all of our variety packages. Fat Plants is a California licensed nursery and grower.
I was nervous about buying plants from Amazon but am so glad I did! The succulents arrived very fast and were packed extremely well - among all of the plants there were only a couple that had any leaves fall off, and those were at the base of the plant so you didn't even notice them. All of the succulents were healthy and looked great. Although some plants look similar, I didn't receive any duplicates and was impressed with the variety. We used these as favors for the wedding shower our parents threw for us, and just repotted them and stuck a cute tag in. They were a hit! I thought we'd have some leftover but everyone wanted one :).
Based on comments for other similar products (sold by other Sellers), I was hesitant to purchase - but because of the great reviews for this product I went ahead and purchased the pack of 20.
Received my "babies" 1 day later! Not only was the package securely fashioned on the outside, it was even more so on the inside! 4 plants per box, and they were covered in a shredded material which looked as if it had been misted with water to keep them happy. The love and care in which each 4 were packed - they couldn't have moved, shifted. lost dirt or jumped out of the box if they tried!
All were exactly what was pictured, healthy, happy and beautiful. I can't wait until they grow up!
I am completely happy with my purchase......with one exception.........{{{{{ I want more! }}}}} and as soon as I can find a place to put them - I *will order more! Thanks so much Fat Plants - you've made my week!
Edited to add:
Still thrilled with my purchase!
I (very) slowly introduced mine to our hot St. Louis sunshine by sitting them on a table under a tree where they received no sunshine and each day, moved them just a bit closer to the end of the table which experienced the most sun and eventually they were ready.
I then painted some clay pots, planted a few per pot, tucked some colored moss around them and have them sitting on our porch tucked into our cinder block planter. They receive full afternoon sun and are set in so they do not get rained on. When cold weather threatens, I will bring them in and can scatter the pots through the house until next spring when out they go again!
Unfortunately however, I did lose 3 of them due to misting them every day the first week. :( I have since found that they are very happy if I mist them briefly with the hose maybe every 3-4 days - longer than that if we're experiencing high humidity. And (because I have extra painted pots) I do still plan to plant even more of as soon as I can afford them! Highly recommend this Seller!
Purchased the 20 plant Suculent pack to help report and spread out my in-home plants.
Shipping was super fast and, outside of one plant, which to my own fault I removed a bit too harshly from the box, everything came in perfect condition.
Also, they include instructions and tidbits just in case you may not know.
Hands down, will buy again.
Note: In the photos, the tall, sickly looking Jade plants are my own that I repotted and am trying to bring back to health.
Ok guys, these are AMAZING. I got a hand written note with my name on it, and they were all packaged so well and so beautifully. Couldn't wait to plant them and just wow guys. 10/10 would recommend. They came all the way from San Diego to NY in 2 days. And still looked amazing and were healthy little guys.
The succulent plants arrived in perfect condition. I think I may have over watered the ones in the round pot but I think they'll be okay.
Update - These succulents are doing so well. I included an updated picture.
