Worth the price over the cheap import version I tried first.
Slightly different tone than the photo but honestly it looks better in person.
Packaging was thoughtful, and the instructions were actually written by a human.
Shipped as a potted tissue-culture or bunch plant, wrapped in damp wool inside an insulated liner. Plants leave the bench Monday through Wednesday so nothing sits in a depot over a weekend.
