Excellent package and delivery. The moss is ideal for forcing my Christmas bulb gifts and the potted plant is beautiful and a welcome addition to my collection. Will be returning and adding gift cards for Highland moss to my birthday and Christmas lists. An outstanding find and highly recommend.

Pretty dried out on arrival but that made the transformation even more stunning once I’d given it a soak in lukewarm water. It went from slightly floppy mouse ears to plump elephant ears overnight!
