Everyone arrived safe and sound :) the plants and soil were securely packed and CuriousPlant made sure to put my delivery instructions on the box so USPS left it inside my building rather than outside in the mailbox.
I had a question about heat packs prior to ordering and the company was helpful quick to respond.
