Purple Heart Plant - Setcreasea - Indoors or Out - Easy - 4" Pot

Just got this little guy in the mail yesterday and though the dirt was dry, all over the place, and he had some unhappy looking leaves, over all he was in really good shape and exactly what I expected for such a good deal. Easily fixed with some water and pruning. These guys are fast growers, so for now I’ve decided to leave him in the little starter pot he came in till he develops some stronger roots and more stalks. The best part is that this one already came with one bloom and another about to open! I thought it would be a while before those came out. Over all it arrived very quickly and I’m very happy with what I know will be a beautiful mature plant in no time.

Nice 4 in plant grew nice healthy and tall

I was dismayed when I first received it.. Several leaves had broken off and a couple more got squished, but overall it was not seriously damaged. At least I hoped not. Gave it food, water and love and here four weeks later it has doubled in size, it's blooming and beautiful. I LOVE it. It could become my very favorite plant.

I expected a young plant in a 4 inch pot. It was more like 2 adult cuttings put in a 4 inch pot. Not saying that’s bad, just not what I expected. I repotted immediately. The stems were leggy with very adult leaves. Repotted, she remained on my kitchen counter so I could monitor every day. Within 2 weeks She had a blossom. The blossom is beautiful, but the overall look is not. Not sure how to bush out all the leggy parts. I’m a plant novice. I buy online infant plants because they are less expensive. You can learn a lot from growing babies. Out of about 30 tiny plants I ordered online, only one was so badly packaged that it was in trouble. I think I saved 1 little root that is fighting to grow back. Packaging is crucial to the person buying and plants life and their success. Well I had a blossom for 2 days and now it’s gone. Guess I will be learning about cuttings now. Thanks for the plant though. I love all of them, no matter how they come to me.

I should have known it wouldn't live. I have never ordered a plant, online before, & I guess I will not do it again. It was not planted very deep. It was very loose in the little pot. By the pic, I was expecting a plant that was larger. It was just about 2 in. tall, & you could tell that it was cut very recent, & just stuck in the pot. It had 2 leaves on it. No way had it even began to start rooting. It died within a week & a half, dying a little each day. I could not send for a return or request my money back, because I only had within 9 days to send for it. I didn't know this. I don't even think the pot was 4 in. So I'm out $11.50! Very unhappy! Had already purchased a new pot for it. Pic is so misleading!

Okayyyy.... hmmm - Not sure what to think about this - I have ordered a ton of plants from JMBamboo and they have all been great- but this one is a FAR cry from the picture!!! - 3 kind of mangled stems- not at all thrilled :-/ !!!! What I do know is this plant grows quickly and it will probably do fine but I’m only doing three stars and not one because of that fact! Soon, hopefully, it will be beautiful and full and this arrival day will be a distant bad memory! ** To the company: Seriously JMBamboo!!! Whoever packaged it has to know it looked like crud and you guys do an awesome job of packaging for shipping so that is not the issue- it had mangled leaves before it left you and shipping definitely didn’t effect the size! :-( Back to everyone else - like I said, I normally love the pants from JMBamboo, so I’m going to assume this is a one off issue - At least I hope so!!!!!!

Anne is one of my favorite plants. Yes, what you get is a small start of a plant. I was expecting that and was not disappointed in the plant when it arrived. It was well packaged, minimal damage (one leaf was bent and looked kind of mangled but that was it) As you can see through the photos, she takes no time at all to flourish. She started out in my kitchen window (picture from 4/20/2020) but I quickly had to move her to a more open spot, as every time I would rotate her she would end up losing a limb due to the window supporting them. Instead of being able to gradually drape over, they would snap under their own weight. But not all was lost with those broken limbs. I have created 4 separate plants from our mishaps and broken limbs, which have thrived. (Only 2 of those 4 are pictured because one has been rehomed to my mother in law and the other to my daughter.) She is pretty much the focal point of my living room at this point, the kids sit on the couch near her location and joke about having to watch their back so she doesn't attack them. Naturally I have to shout out "Feed me, Seymour!", because how could you look at this beast and not make a Little Shop of Horrors reference.

I received my plant last year from a cutting and it was really tiny but I planted it in a smaller pot so it can get its bearings. As I saw it growing bigger, I transferred it to the pot that it’s in now and have it by my window where I have a very nice sun and couple of months later I have my first flower. The plant is thriving and looking great can’t wait for it to get more bigger and fuller.
