Excellent condensed encyclopedia.
Catalogue, Encyclopedia and soon to be worn out reference book. This is the information one should have before making purchases to know the environmental needs of each plant for successful longevity. A wealth of knowledge with superb pictures to tweak one’s interest. It has helped me make better decisions of what species work for me in my locale. A “must have” to aid in the enjoyment of these unique plants.
Out of the 3 bags of soil I ordered, I only received 1. It says right on the invoice for 3 bags. How can anyone miss that
Hi Errol,
I see you didn't receive your whole order, and I'm sorry for the mistake! I can ship out the missing items as soon as possible! Anytime you have any issues with a shipment from us, you can just email us and we'll make it right! I'm very sorry we didn't fulfill your order correctly this time. We're a small crew, and sometimes we make a mistake, a human error that just happens when you're shipping hundreds of orders out. We do try to prevent mistakes, but we're all working very hard, and these things happen sometimes. But I want to make this right for you, so I'll personally make sure we get these shipped out tomorrow.
