            Not happy
            I purchased less than a month ago. It looked great out of the box. I put it out on my deck to acclimate to the climate. It was in the 80's and sunny the entire time. Watered it everyday. As soon as I took it out of the package it started dying. It's still alive and I'm trying to nurse it back to health but I don't like it's chances.

                It was very hot day. The plant was still alive but had some dried and dead foliage. It's starting to bloom now.

                  Item was in a much smaller than 3 gallon container —- more like one gallon. Very overpriced for the size. I called Home Depot, and the customer service person was terrific. She gave me a credit toward my credit card which made the purchase fair, but I would not buy from this vendor (i.e., this was a third party that sells to Home Depot) again.

                  Small plant in a 3 gallon bucket. I expected a much larger plant for the cost and found them for a third of the price elsewhere.

                  The plant arrived in good shape. It was smaller than I expected. Currently it is thriving. But it is SMALL for the price paid.
