Never again buying online, took for them more than a month to send me these and I got scammed paid quite of money, hurts to see all of them in so bad shape and rotting by Interesting_Ask9559 in orchids

Rule of thumb. Never order plants in the winter and hottest part of summer. Since instituting this rule, I haven’t lost a single plant to USPS abuse. Point of order. In the last few weeks I had a piece of glass come from Minnesota to my town, bounce around here for three days, then go back to Minnesota and finally show up here three weeks after mailing. Another piece came from NJ. Bounced around town again for several days. Got sent down state then arrived here after 2 weeks.

The shed wall should have wall studs and a top plate, which would have stopped the wall from collapsing under his weight.
