This is my 2nd order from Brighter Blooms and I can Honestly say,, I am VERY Impressed with them ! The plants are actually fresh shipped 2nd Day Delivery, AND packaged professionally !! No cheap flimsy boxes and plants are secured in place in the box. FedEx would have to roll over these packages to destroy the plants inside. I've bought from other online companies in the past and never got plants this impressive. Brighter Blooms is now my go to company for online plants !! Thanks ! Don
