I placed my order on 7/5, it was shipped on 7/13 and arrived on 7/20. Dirt spilled out of the box when it was opened and all but the String of Pearls were covered in dirt. String of Pearls and Firecracker Echeveria look fine as in the advertised photos after the latter was cleaned. Mike's Fuzzy Wuzzy was listing badly to one side, a small section of the plant was broken, and the leaves furled inward. After watering it twice, the plant has straightened up and the leaves are beginning to unfurl. The Ruby Necklace is a larger plant than shown on the webpage but only the vines are pink. There are some small white spots on the plant, hopefully not mealy bugs. The Dream Dazzler looks the least healthy, appears to be slightly etiolated, 3 of the larger leaves out of the 16 on the plant are curled toward the center of the plant which has been watered twice in four days. The leaves are beginning to take on a pinkish cast which was not at all apparent when the plant arrived. If you are located in southern California, I suggest sending the plants directly rather than routing them through northern Washington and then to Oregon. I don't agree that all your plants can handle shipping durations of a week or longer easily.
