My trees arrived nicely packed and protected.
Originally they had a few leaves on them and were about 5 inches tall. That has changed drastically since unpacking, planting and receiving daily care. I have them growing inside my house under my grow lamps in two separate medium size 8 inch pots. They are now double in size - over 10 inches tall and branching out. I bought 4, but actually have 6 growing. The leaves are bright green and shiny and showing lots of new growth. I can not wait for figs to start, but I know it will take some time yet for these to mature and bear fruit. Eventually, I will move them outside. I have not decided if I will keep them in pots or plant in the ground. I know fig trees get huge and branch out and take over a yard as I have seen my parent's tree doing that for decades. I bought these in September 2025. It is now July 2026. Every few weeks, I swap the pots around so they get the warmth and light evenly. I have 2 grow lamps with adjustable arms angled different ways for the other plants I have growing. I water my fig trees daily with just a light misting and tossed in some diatomaceous earth (this is the white powder on some leaves). Once a week I do a heavy watering. My plants are happy and healthy and it shows. Excellent value and quality.

Doing great!
These came pretty tiny, but they are doing great. Lots of new leaves. Considering I ordered these by accident, Iโm pretty happy with them.

Not worth buying
They arrived on time but upon opening they appeared lifeless. I planted them all with hope they recover. Unfortunately, after a week 3 of them died, one still trying to recover. Iโm dissatisfied with this purchase. Donโt recommend buying it if youโre living far from Florida. Theyโre too small to survive the trip in the box.

Fig starts
The fig starts were beautiful, they were healthy and big when arrived. Trouble being these 1โ pots had no direction on unwrapping. They came as 4 plants wrapped in a large sheet of paper with the foliage, all 4 plants Jammed and intertwined into a mess to separate. I lost some limbs and big leaves trying to gently separate them.More thoughtful wrapping would have made transition much better.Some kind of bambo. Sticks to hold the 1โ pots equidistant from one group of twos pots to. The other so they donโt start meshing the tops together?

As described. ๐
Wasn't sure what to expect since ordering from Hawaii but all 4 starter plants arrived in about a week. Packaged nicely in small starter pots and all were still green and alive. Transplanted as soon as I received into larger pots as shown in this picture.

Read up on care
I bought a four pack, and gave one to a friend. Hers was twice the size as mine after just a few weeks, and then, was on its way out. My three had to be resurrected. I left them in a pan of water, and I thought they died. Well, you canโt leave them in water. I Dried them out, put under a grow light and they all survived. Transplanted and then, for no reason I could see, my best one was now droopy. I did a plant app and said it was overwatered. It gets same as other 2. The other 2 are better but not good. They didnโt grow much from when I got them but, still has a couple green leaves. Iโm determined! They didnโt come with directions ๐ข
M**!
Quick shipping, healthy plant start.
They showed up within 3 days of ordering them (shipped to Hawaii). They were still in their tiny moist pots, green, heathy, and ready to transplant. The rest is up to me to keep them alive. Great shipper, great product.

Healthy and alive
Hello Organics is awesome. I've ordered several plants from them and they all have arrived alive and in good shape. These Violette de Bordeaux are green and healthy. A couple did fall out of the pots during shipment, but they were not damaged. I quickly soaked them and will plant in a bit iwith mycorrhizal fungi to get the roots started. Recommended.
