Delayed and dead plants received.
The order was delayed for over 12 days and then when it arrived, we 2 airplants that were already dead and dry and the rest were almost dying. I am requesting for a full refund for the substandard quality of the product.

3 were brown and looked half dead :(
3 of the plants were turning brown, and looked half dead. They have since died. The others looked healthy and are doing well so far. There was a good variation of size and style in the pack.

No Way to Go Wrong with Buying these Plants
Just to get it out of the way, the plants arrived in 2 days from the time I ordered and arrived in excellent condition, had obviously been well carefree before sale and were packaged correctly and exhibited no signs of being overly dehydrated or having been over watered. They arrived in a healthy color and appeared no more thirsty than a air plant normally would about the time it needs a bit of a misting again. Probably while the instructions only suggested a 30 second soak upon arrival, while many other sellers, knowing their plant is going to arrived very dried out, suggests time up to 30 minutes after delivery.Since Plants for Pets contributes a part of each sale to be donated to helping people pay animal shelter adoption fees, and will pay for those fees if you adopt a shelter pet withing 2 weeks of having bought some of their plants there is really no downside to this purchase. Good healthy plants, a contribution to help people adopt a pet and a way to offset adoption fees you may also be paying. Plants and Animals both get a good home!The plants were nicely packaged for their protection and they were in excellent condition even after being in a box for a couple of days being shipped to me. The only downside that I can mention is just one of my own making and not really anything to blame the seller for. As Air Plants have become more and more popular people have pressured the plant sellers into being able to get plants that were initially starting to bloom, and therefore change color or bloom. My personal feeling is that a blooming plant has enough stress without being shipped about in a box at the same time, but sadly too many buyers wanting a couple of the plants they get to already be exhibiting their vibrant colors and so forth and want that out of the box and are not willing to care for a plant for a few weeks and adjust its lighting so it blooms after having settled into a new home. So of course, many sellers include, if possible, a plant or two, dependent on the number bought, that are starting to change color enough s the buyer can see what they are getting in the way of colors without waiting. I did get to that were in early staged of bloom and were undergoing a color change, however those plants appear to be as healthy as others. Its possible that shipping was quick enough that they did not really develop too high a stress level and at the worst may just have a slower growth cycle this time around. In the case of many other sellers I have receive shipments where the plants were in transit for 4 or more days, were all shipped in one stage of bloom or another so you were greeted with a lot of color when opening the box. Those plants have ended up not growing at the expected growth rate for a cycle or two meaning that they did stress out to a high level and needed a long time to fully recover. This seller seems to have found a nice way to provide plants exhibiting some color but are very early bloom states where they are not feeling too stressed and they are well cared for up to packaging and are packaged with care and enough room as well as a guick shipping time they can safely allow the buyer who wants the 'surprise' of some color on the first day ;)

#1 Company for Air Plants!
Plants for Pets is the only company I will order air plants from off Amazon. I’ve had consistently positive experiences with them (Plus several negative ones with other companies on here). As usual, all 6 of the plants arrived in perfect condition! They threw in an extra one as well. (So kind!) Care was taken to ensure that they were not damaged during the shipping process.Helpful instructions on how to acclimate the plants to their new environment upon arrival were enclosed in the package, as well as ongoing care, accompanied by details on how to customize the routine based upon your your specific climate conditions.Note: There’s no excessive material waste in the package. Everything is recyclable! No nasty styrofoam or plastic!I received a beautiful variety of 5 different types of plants. (5 different species with 2 being the same, for 7 plants total, including the freebie.) This company comes across as being truly enthusiastic and caring about air plants!UPDATE: In the past, I’ve killed a lot of air plants. Growing them in a hot, dry climate (I live in the Phoenix metropolitan area) isn’t intuitive, but after much trial-and-error, coupled with research, I’ve finally got the hang of it. Here’s a summary of what I’ve learned......Watering: Misting doesn’t cut it for me. Most of the air plants I’ve lost from rot involved misting, so I’ve completely stopped doing it. Now I exclusively soak them in distilled water. (Up to 3 times/week during the summer, 1-2 times/week during the winter.) I also soak them for at least 1-2 hours, but discovered that they can handle being soaked longer than this, even overnight, as long as they’re totally dried after removal. (I learned this after an air plant somehow “leaped” off a shelf and happened to land into a vase that was filled with distilled water. I discovered it the next morning and was very concerned! After letting it dry, I noticed that it looked really healthy, so I no longer worry about soaking them too long.)Drying: It’s essential to ensure that air plants are allowed to dry completely after being soaked (or misted, if that’s the method that works best for you). This is especially important if you keep them in a glass terrarium enclosure. I’ve found that drying them upside or at an angle better ensures that moisture doesn’t get trapped anywhere.Dry Placement: I’ve lost several air plants in the past by placing them on live moss and other areas that have moisture. For example, I had one that was doing great, hanging out on a large leaf of another plant. One day, it fell off and a housemate, attempting to be helpful, placed it on the moist soil of a neighboring Caladium. This instigated a rotting process that I was never able to get under control. After this happened, I only keep them in places where there’s zero chances of them getting prolonged exposure to a moist surface.Light: I disagree that these are “low light tolerant plants,” at least for most species. I now have them directly in front of an East facing window. Had I done this immediately after arrival, it probably would have put them in shock and killed them. They can’t go from being in a dark package for several days during shipping and directly into a bright area. I acclimated them gradually by placing them several feet away from the window and reducing the distance every week. This allows them bright morning light, with some protection from the UV blocking features of the glass, so the sun is intense but not to the point of frying them. (If your windows don’t have such features, they may need to be kept farther back.) They also receive sun in the afternoon, but it’s not at such a high intensity as they would be in front of a West or South facing window.Humidity: One of the major mistakes I made with previous air plants was failing to understand that they need humidity to thrive. (Again, some species don’t, but these certainly do.) In Phoenix, the humidity level is often under 25%, so while I’ve managed to keep some alive without supplemental humidity, it always limited their ability to thrive. Increasing the humidity also seems to enable them to better tolerate the brighter light. I have my Calathea plants (they absolutely require high humidity) by the same East facing window, so there’s a humidifier running constantly now, and the humidity is mostly maintained over 60% in this area. The condition of the air plants have dramatically improved since I started doing this.

First time buying plants on Amazon didn't end badly...
These turned out very nice and I love that the company donates to a pet shelter. Delivery was a little odd since it took a long time for them to get to me and when they arrived the box was pretty smashed up... but luckily my air plants looked fine. Soaked them in water - the instructions say to use distilled water but the internet seems to have a divided opinion on this. I've been experimenting with distilled water and filtered tap water to see how it goes.You'll be playing Russian roulette with what kind of air plants you get since they vary greatly in size. I had to modify my plans a bit but I figured out how to fill them up in my extra vase.
