Fittonia 'Pink' — The Nerve Plant That Steals the Show
Small in stature but impossible to ignore, the Fittonia 'Pink' is a masterclass in botanical detail. Its deep green leaves are traced with a delicate network of vivid pink veins — like nature drew a map across every leaf. Compact, low-growing, and endlessly charming, it's the perfect plant for terrariums, windowsills, and anywhere you want a pop of color without the footprint.
Native to the tropical rainforests of South America, Fittonia thrives in warm, humid conditions and rewards attentive care with lush, ever-vibrant foliage. It's a little dramatic when thirsty — leaves will droop noticeably — but bounces back quickly once watered, earning it the nickname "fainting plant."

Alocasia Variegated Frydek Brandie Perry
The plant did not arrive in great shape. However, it was an alocasia and I did not add insulation so this is not on the seller (and we all know alocasia does not travel well anddddd they come back)
From start to finish the transaction was amazing. They gave me a discount for my next order even though I didn't ask for one because I knew the risks, and they continued to answer my questions and help me! Will def order again from them and would encourage others to as well!
