Beautiful XorasnDefinitely would purchase more
The seller was out of this item due to the cold snap killing plants. We had the same problem with our outside plants (which is why we’ve been having to buy more to fix up the patio and yard). Mike sent us a beautiful duranta. We are so happy, and will shop here going forward.
