I would not come back both ant ferns were small but the smaller one has 2 tiny leaves and was not in good shape.

I have been looking for one of these (from an ethical source) for years! Very pleased with the size plant I was sent and it arrived in great condition.

What a wonderful, weird, and unique plant. Everyone asks about it. I just love it, it’s a great addition to my collection of oddities.
