From the discription I read I thought the plant would a bit bigger. The plant is just barely past being a seedling, the discription said it would be a well established plant in a 3" pot. Well, yes, it was in a pot & it does have leaves & a root system but it is maybe a 1/4 tall. I don't think that is the "norm.", at least I hope not, not for $9.99... hind sight being 20/20 I should have looked more on the web & gotten the 1 gallon potted plant from another seller for the same price.
Pros: Plant was shipped very nicely with lots of the styrfoam peanuts.
Cons: Much smaller than expected, picture are deceiving, you are definitely not receiving a mature plant. (Nice to know what the plant might look like in a year or two.)

While the plant that arrived was healthy and robust, it doesn't look anything like the picture or the description. The older leaves are mottled with white and shades of olive green. Pretty. However, the reason I bought the plant was because of the picture with the new leaves a pure pink, then changing to white and on to the dappled color. The VERY young leaves have pink, but it's more of a pink hue over the mottled color on the mature leaves. I has hoping for more of a dramatic difference between the young and new leaves. I'll keep the plant, but I'll be hesitant before buying a plant online that I'm purchasing solely for decorative purposes.

Hirt's has sent me a total of five houseplants so far - they have all arrived healthy and better than pictured. The plants arrived sooner than I expected as well. Very good, very professional business. I look forward to doing a lot of business with them
