* Please note that your succulent will be shipped bare-rooted (without soil and a pot) to ensure its safe travel. The first 2 images in the listing serve as a fair representation of the plant you will receive. Managing hundreds of plants means photographing every single individual specimen is simply not feasible, especially since plants naturally shift in color and size over time. Rest assured, every plant is hand-picked for quality and health!
