It is a beautiful plant, but it had brown spot. Exceptional customer service agreed to replace it as well as give suggestions on care. Shipping was faster than expected. I added a heat pack which was still bery warm. I like this company because they have plants that are rare and hard.
I received the Columnea tenensis several weeks ago, It was well packed, included a heat pack. It was well rooted, mature, and loaded with buds. It is now beginning to bloom. A very choice Columnea, a terrific addition to my collection.
It’s a reliable heating pack that’s still warm in the pacakagw when it arrives.
Much larger than I expected it to be and seems to be healthy.
