They arrived and were very well packaged. After removing from the packaging, they looked a little small however I was told that they would grow and bulk out. I live in a very hot and humid climate and wanted to decorate my patio. I slowly have to learn how often to give them water. I also started to spray them with a water bottle which had appeared to work. They continue to grow as well as adding more fronds and only in the first month. I’d like to repot them into something larger so that they continue to grow. I have zero experience with growing plants but I have done research as well as followed the growing recommendations that are provided in the box when they are delivered. With anything you purchase and have to care for, read the directions provided and do additional research. If the plant dies, you are either doing something wrong or the environment you are trying to grow them in is not ideal.
