Super healthy, grows like crazy!
First off, the plants are just beautiful. Shipped in quality packaging and all plants survived the journey. Large healthy leaves and long healthy roots. I love them. My fish love them too, and will occasionally nibble at them. My larger fishes eat the roots enough to kill the plant, but the plants flourish in my betta tanks. They’re a perfect hangout spot for frogs and smaller fish. The leaves themselves have hydrophobic hairs that keep them floating and upright, which is super neat. Beads of water will sometimes collect on top of the leaves which can cause them to rot but it hasn’t been a major issue.Then there’s what I can’t decide is a blessing or a curse. I think I finally understand what my math teacher was saying about exponential growth in high school. I can’t believe I only bought 12 plants. It took a few weeks for the plants to settle in, and then they EXPLODED. I see new baby leaves almost every other day. My tanks are heated, filtered, and have standard LED lighting. Enough plants have grown to completely cover two 10-gallon tanks with plenty to spare. I read reviews before purchasing and no, they are not exaggerating. It’s been exciting watching them multiply and in spite of the chaos I am pleased to report the plants are healthy and growing well.

Snails and worms come with order!
Received plants and came with worms and snails - I have been fighting to get rid of them ever since I ordered these plants and nothing kills them. I am not happy I Have been fighting these things for months! I removed substrate cleaned the entire tank and have done hydrogen peroxide everything I can think of and they arrived with these plants and not happy I have had uninvited guests in my tank I can’t kill! The snails are little white spots on tank you can use fingernail to slide up and wipe in paper towel the worms look clear and .01cm to 2” very thin. So make it short and simple - live plants are suppose to be good eco system for fish but these Demetrius worms and whatever snails I don’t want and they multiply like rabbits! I got plants for bettas and mistake

Tiny stuff
I really can’t tell you if I like or don’t like. I just got it and they are so tiny and my pond is large. Hoping they work out. Only gave you 3 stars because it’s to hard to tell if they are good. They’re cute but???

Giving it a try
I wanted some plants for my betta's tank and I figured i would give it a try with theses type of plant. I ordered them on April 18 and the estimated date for the package was April 23-28. I waited till it was April 29 and gotten a notification that the package was delayed till may 2. I have just gotten it today on April 30th and the condition of the plant don't look so well. 3 out of like 5 clusters were very green and super healthy but the 2 other clusters were pale green almost yellowish. I don't mind the little bits of other plant that came with them as the more the merrier but I fear because of the delay it caused my plants during shipping to have casualties. Now I'm not looking for a refund, I'm going all the way and giving the living clusters a chance otherwise all this negativity these are great plants. The weather did change suddenly very hot the past two days so I hope they thrive in my betta's little pond outside. I will keep updating on the condition of the plants.

Great addition to my small pond
I was weary about buying plants online, but was pleasantly surprised at how it turned out.The spangles were shipped and packaged well. No leaks. Live plants.I didnt know what healthy spangles should look like (how green, how vibrant), so I put them in a ceramic tub in the pond for a few days, hoping the stagnant water would help them be healthy. Our pond was new-ish and pretty clean, but it was summer with 90+F degree days, and since it was Sept the pond gets only an hour or two of sun. I finally let the spangles free, and as soon as some algae grew in the pond, the spangles went nuts. Yay.The first pic is the day I recd them. That's how many we got and what they looked like. The darker ones I think are the more mature spangles. Because winter is coming, I added a water heater to the pond a week ago, and it's set at 71-degrees. Fast forward and the 2nd pic shows how happy the spangles are (we got them about a month ago). Bright green, new growth, and probably 3x the amount we started with. The insects hover over the spangles and the frogs love it! I couldnt be happier!

Plants got to me healthy and alive.
I never write review because I’m usually busy with work or home but I had to take time out of my day to review this product because it’s incredible. I ordered 3 packs on behalf of my aquarium children and not only did it come very neatly organized but little to no dead plants on arrival. I usually go to my neighborhood pet shop to buy plants but I wanted to give my little buddies more of a natural feeling, so after doing my research I went out to the pet shop to do some shopping but to my surprise they only carry the artificial ones. So sadly my hunt began and I found live plants on Amazon, Yea I know I was skeptical at first too because it’s live plants getting shipped to my house. So I was digging around the reviews and I finally gave in and ordered a couple packs, just in case one didn’t come out so well I still had a couple more, but let me tell you this was one package that surpassed my expectations. I’m here to tell you that this product is legit !
