I ordered two 3 gallon LSU Purple Figs and one arrived as the size i would have expected it to have been for a 3 gallon pot while the other arrived just as small as my other order of figs i had got which are a 1 gallon pots I took a photo of a side by side comparison and i am a bit disappointed in the price difference i payed just to recive a small 1 gallon size plant for a 3 gallon size plant price. The 3 gallon plant is the right and the 1 gallon is the left.

Plant arrived with noticeable fungal spots. Contacted company and received a prompt offer for replacement or refund. Great customer support. Confidence for past and future purchases.
