Exceeded Expectations
These cuttings are absolutely beautiful. They are larger an more interesting than I anticipated. In my most recent order, I ordered 2 sets of 15 cuttings. I believe I recieved 31 cuttings. I was expecting a few more just because typically each order has 2-4 extras, but the beauty and size of the ones I recieved made up for it! They are all rosettes, although some are leafy rosettes (sorry I don't know the technical names, they are thinner and seem a little less hardy). There are 3 with flowering spikes, 1 has 1 spike and 2 have 2 spikes each. I was completely not expecting this, so I'm very excited.They arrived during roughly 40 deg weather, it was cold but above freezing. I happened to be home at the time so I brought the box in immediately and opened it right away. There was no heat pack. The plants were still cool but not too much visible damage, or maybe I was in too much of a hurry to inspect them properly. I went back to work and when I came home the outer most layer leaves on almost half the plants were damaged. The only thing I can think of is the damage had already been done with respect to the cold temp but maybe it was just not visible yet. Luckily the cuttings are large enough that even if I lost the outer layer of leaves on each one, I still won't be stuck nursing a dime or pea sized plant back to health (like I have with other sellers).I ordered from this listing previously, I got 1 order of 15 cuttings and received roughly 19, which was awesome, however, I got multiple doubles and triples. Maybe that's why I got 4 extras because there were so many duplicates. About 1/3rd of them were more leafy jade varieties of succulent. Not what I'd call rose shaped or rosette, but I don't know their technical classifications so maybe they are. I was still happy enough that I ordered again from this listing/seller(jiimz), I am so happy I did!!I ordered succulent cuttings from Jiimz before from a different listing, a non rosette specific listing, no major complaints but I found a few of them hard to get root growth or just too fragile. My experience level could have been a factor but not all of them made it.Anyway back to this listing.... I love them so much I want to order more already but I'm running out of space to keep them all. I just hope they recover from the damage, I posted a few example pictures.The picture with all 31 or so on the paper was immediately after opening the box. The other pictures were taken later that day or within 3 days. Note: one picture was taken under a 18W grow light.Also know, they were not cut at 45 deg angles, most were cut at 90 deg angles. I know 45 degs is recommended. If it becomes a problem (and I remember), I'll post an update.Thanks!

Okay for the price!
I received exactly 15 rosette succulents and I love them. The sizes ranged from 1.5 inches to 3 inches in diameter. All looked healthy except for two of them that seem like they may not survive but I remain hopeful. There were quite a bit of dead leaves but the rosettes were calloused. I saw what looked like the early stages of mealy bug on two of the rosettes. The variety was good and I will enjoy watching these grow. For the price this is and excellent selection. I do recommend.Update**************After three weeks, 4 rosettes have died. I had to treat about 5 of them for mealy bugs. The rest are surving okay for now. Apparently these were not ao healthy after all.....

Good price for a decent selection of rosettes
Decent variety of cuttings. They were already callused over, which was nice for planting right away. There were a few leaves that had come off during shipping, and one of the cuttings was in kind of rough shape. The cuttings were cut very close to the base of the rosettes, so I ended up removing some leaves at the bottom to make for easier planting. I’m hoping some of the leaves I removed will turn into babies!I added some cuttings from my own plants to make a really nice arrangement, and put a couple leftover cuttings in other arrangements I had started.

The best you can buy!
These succulents are beautiful! I have done a lot of shopping around and these are the best you can buy! All healthy, beautiful cuttings that you won't be disappointed in.

Beautiful cuttings
I have temporarily planted them in a planter until I am ready to plant into a cement bird bath with succulent soil. But they are so beautiful I bought more. I hope they over-winter outside if I place the planter in my garage with a breathable cover. Wish me luck. Great purchase!!

Nice variety. Awesome deal. BLUES, REDS, PINKS, LIME GREEN, GHOST
I ordered on the 18th and they arrived on the 27th. Nicely packed in a sturdy box. My only complaint is the us postal service who seem to have left the box in a window or someplace exposed to sun as the contents of the box were considerably hotter than the environment when the box was opened. Thank goodness succulents are hardy and likely to survive.Most of the plants had stems to root. A couple were cut right at the base of the healthy leaves so I’m certain we will lose a few leaves and the rosettes will get smaller in the rooting process.Still and awesome deal. Still wide variety of colors that are hard to come by unless you go to a speciality succulent store. I would definitely buy again.

Not happy
Upon receiving the rosettes I noticed they didn't have a stem. They were cut too short. I called the owner, and he said that the roots will grow. Unfortunately a bunch of them died. I sent an email, and he was kind enough to send me 9 of them, but again with no stems on them. As of now most of them have died. I have a green thumb, and this is the first time this happened to me.

I was highly surprised these cutting arrived in such great condition considering they were shipped in very cold weather. Th varied selection was wonderful & 3 weeks after delivery I' m beginning to see fine hair like roots growing from these large colorfuful cuttings!
