Not a bad cactus. Arrived in a box, with plastic wrap around cactus, padding around vase, etc. appeared to be well packed. After I opened, cactus had slipped and was at a bit of an angle. Not terrible to fix, but annoying. Pretty sure that’s delivery team and not manufacturer issue though. Overall pleased.

My first barrel cactus and I love it. It just arrived perfectly packaged letting me know where the top of the plant was so I wouldn’t prick myself on the spines. It is a nice size and has a nice outer pot to place the nursery pot into.

This cactus arrived securely packaged in its plastic pot (which does not have a drainage hole). It was a little bit messy removing the packaging, and quite a bit of the dirt had spilled in the box, which is probably inevitable. The cactus looks like it fared well on its journey as it appears healthy. I will be adding a cactus mix to the container due to the soil spillage - or more likely will be planting this baby outside. I often bottom water cacti, and keeping this guy in a pot with no drainage hole wouldn’t be ideal. Overall, it’s probably better to purchase plants from my local nursery than online.
