Incredibly small, 5-6cm diameter, some a little yellow where they became dry on route. Just hoping they survive.

I bought one many years ago which got bigger and bigger however I think it got waterlogged over the winter and didn’t look happy. The replacement which recently arrived looks slightly different not so dense although I maybe am not comparing plants with the same level of maturity. The new plant arrived in good condition and I look forward to another stupendous result in years to come.

Looked like a mini version of the product photo, it’s wilted a bit since being planted, although I’m hoping it’s just the freakish weather we’ve been having lately

Small but perfectly formed. Lovely little Scleranthus biflorus plants, bit small in pots but they’ll fill out quickly. Lovely and healthy, well packaged. Gold stars to D’arcy and Everest for their environmentally friendly packaging and their eco-friendly pesticide free approach and biological pest control.

We ordered two Scleranthus and one is nice and compact but the other is rather less dense. Lack of light might be the cause as the delivery to us takes a little longer. They are both doing well however so it will be interesting to see how they develop.

Bought as a gift. Couldn’t find scleranthus biflorus anywhere else so took a chance. 3 plants arrived safely, securely packed, watered, looked very healthy. Plants were truly appreciated by recipient. Wouldn’t hesitate to buy from this company again.
Ann (verified owner) –
I ordered this plant from three different suppliers on the same day and Darcy Everest’s were by far the biggest and healthiest plants. It doesn’t pay to try to save a pound or so per plant by ordering elsewhere. I’ll order only from Darcy Everest next time.
