When my husband open the box for this thing, he immediately texted me and said "this thing looks so cheaply looking. Why did you buy this?" I thought he was just being sarcastic so I told him that I'll take a look at it when I get home. Then when I got home that night, I noticed that there are 3 petals that are loose and that there is no where to place it back in the stem and the 2 leaves looks yellowish than green. But I decided to keep it and so far, I kinda get used to it and it looks okay. But I don't think 39$ is the right price for this flower..I will pay 10$ if I have to buy this at a store.
