    This one is a winner and a keeper! My order of CULVER'S ROOT 'FASCINATION' (3) came perfectly packaged to ensure safe shipping and minimal impact on the plant. The plant specimens are extremely healthy with excellent root systems— shiny leaves and multiple branching, zero cracks on stems or detectable weeds in the soil. I would purchase again, A++ rating.
