    I have purchased plants from Sow Exotic several times now and they have always arrived in excellent shape without any signs of stress, disease, or insect pests. I also like the fact that they utilize biodegradable pots and packing supplies. I highly recommend Sow Exotic and intend to purchase from them again in the future.
