I have received two separate orders from these guys and they are outstanding! My first order contained a cephalotus and a nepenthes hookeriana and they were just wonderful! I loved them so much I ended up ordering more cephalotus, more nepenthes, and a heliamphora. Love all of my plants and they arrived in superb quality!
