Great purchase if you can deal with the mess
I have very mixed feelings about this order. I expected that succulents to be not well packed based on other reviews and I wasn't surprised when they came a mess. They were boxed up with paper shreds, which didn't keep the soil in place. Soil was everywhere and most of the plants were buried in their pots. It took me several hours to get them all out and repot them with the loose soil, and then clean them off. All the plants were rooted, which is great, but I can tell that many of the plants were rooted elsewhere and repotted for shipping using dry soil. Obviously the dry soil is going to pour out of the pot if the package is tipped. They put a "this side up" sticker on the box, which obviously the postal carrier ignored. They really should find a better way of shipping these plants. Even using dampened soil would go a long way.Most of the plants were healthy, but several were limp and wrinkled, indicating that they badly needed water. I watered after I repotted and they all were perked up the next day. One plant shows signs of etiolation, and the long stem combined with the poor packing caused many of the leaves to fall off. Not the cutest plant anymore, but it's still alive. A little disappointed that these guys seemed a little neglected, but not the biggest deal since they are all doing fine now.For the positives, I am really happy with the selection I got. I got some common ones (that I typically don't buy, so this is a nice way to add those basic ones to your collection) and I got one that I have always wanted and never seen before in a store, which was a very pleasant surprise. The QR code that comes in the package doesn't provide a list of exactly what you got. It just sends you to their website that shows all they offer, which isn't the most helpful. And there were many I got that weren't listed there, so I had to do my own research to identify, and some of them I still haven't figured out. It shouldn't be that hard to jot down the names of the plants and toss a piece of paper in the box.Despite my mostly negative review, I'm happy with this purchase. I'm very happy with what I got and everything is now healthy. If you have some experience with succulents and are prepared do doctor them up, this is a great way to expand your collection. If you want something perfect out of the box, this will probably not make you happy.I have attached photos of the plants in the box and after I cleaned them up.

VERY HAPPY!
I ordered 105 succulents for my wedding, and they actually ended up packaging extra for me :) But, as I was removing the packing peanuts I realized that the plants were HUGE! Backtrack to earlier this week, I also needed 30 unique/more colorful for the main part of the centerpieces, and so I ordered 30 from another company that were labeled "wedding assortment." The other company sent me legitimately 2 inch plants, nothing to complain about, and I did get some unique plants in that one.So, with Jiimz having nothing special in the title, I was not expecting anything more than an assortment of 2 inch plants. Holy cow did they deliver! the plants came in 3 days after they were ordered. ALL of them were in great shape, super healthy. Some of the plants they sent me are well over two inches, some are pretty small, but they make for a great variety, plus that means I have a lot to work with when it comes to combining plants in containers.The only thing was, there were gnats in the box that were visible as soon as I opened the box... So, that's not good.The picture I attached is what the plants looked like after coming straight out of the box. They were packaged very well, 0/100 of the plants were out of the containers or had a weird amount of dirt missing. I will rinse the plants off and post another photo.

Succulent lover but not happy with what I received.
The only reason I gave 3 stars is because of the shipping. It was shipped well. Shipping charge was 9.50. Both the 15 mixed Succulent Spring Collection Mother Nature AND the 20 Gorgeous Succulents in 2" plastic pots were all shipped together "in same box". I don't feel I should have been charges 9.50 & 9.49 combined to total $18.99 for shipping. That is just wrong to start with. NOW... if all the plants were healthy & I didn't have so many of the same plants, then I could deal with the double shipping.All the plants didn't look like the photo shown at all. Most of the plants had very noticeable scars on them. Some leaves were broken off. I know this doesn't ruin the plant, but it doesn't look as uniform as it should especially when it's a larger or bottom leaf, Some of the dirt was tossed around a bit, that's to be expected Enlarge the Photos that I have posted below & you can tell I have many plants that are the same & all the scars on plants... Then enlarge the photo shown what they are selling, how healthy they look & all the different types of succulents they show that you will get, Maybe not the exact plants, but different types. I tried to get a good shot so I took 2 of the same box.

A GOOD VARIETY I WOULD ORDER AGAIN
These succulents are so pretty my youngest son order these for me as a present with his own money. He was so happy to see these arrive and we planted them in a few places. Dirt is all over the plants and box but we order extra of the succulent specific soil. We immediately transplanted and watered. The plants are pretty. I water these with my sons dirty fish tank water and the natural fertilizer in the water really perls them up.I made some little clay pots to place next to my window seal for some of the smaller plants. The larger ones went in a pot on my front porch. The medium size went in a open top terrarium that gets a good amount of air flow.I would suggest if getting as a gift or display orders little early, transplant and give them a bit of time to perk back up.Overall I would recommend these and the price is way better then if you went to ANY local garden center.Be cautious yourself what the weather and temperature will be when placing a order succulents do not do well in freezing cold tempts and packages will be frozen and killed.
