wasn’t expecting the plant to be this big 😳 came super healthy and already has new growth. first time buying fruit plant online and i’m impressed.

This tree reminds me of my childhood in Kerala. We used to eat these cherries straight from the branch. So happy to grow my own now, thank you guys!

got it within 4 days and it was so well-packed. no damage, roots strong. planted it right away and it’s doing great in full sun.

i literally bought this on impulse and now it’s my fav plant 😅 it’s so easy to care for and the leaves look beautiful too.

mine started growing fast within 2 weeks. zero transplant shock. customer service even helped with soil mix tips. great experience overall.

honestly this is the healthiest plant i’ve ever received online. dark green leaves, good root system and no pests. already recommended to my cousin.

The fruit on this tree is so unique, slightly tart and sweet at the same time. Even if it takes time to fruit, it's worth every bit.

i was looking for something different for my garden and this plant hit the mark. super low maintenance and has that tropical look i love.
