New and Healthy Red Theobroma Cacao Cocoa Chocolate Tropical Fruit Tree Potted Plant 10-13"

I AM IN LOVE AND WANT MORE! My plant showed up alive and healthy and is doing great in my little greenhouse getting all acclimated to its new environment.

I got this plant in the middle of the winter and it was left outside for around 5 hours and it was below freezing and the plant was in great condition packed really good.

I absolutely LOVE the care you take in packaging and sending these Cacao Plants! Each just over 12", they arrive in such wonderful and great shape! Thank you! This is the second time I have bought both Yellow and Red and the first, last December, are growing and happy! I expect these two will be happy, too! Susie.

I wish I didn't easte the money. Plant is already dead better off getting one that's bigger and more durable

Root ball was not very developedI list the red one hoping this yellow cocoa plant does wellIt looks good right nowBut again rootball not very developed when I got themFor the money these things costI can only hope seller looks at this review and sends me a replacementI would revisit this review regardless of plants outcome for effort to make it rightThanks

I bought this back in August and it's been 2 months. I live in San diego, CA where the humidity stays around 50-60% and the temp never gets below the 40s at it's coldest. When I received it, the leaves were green and healthy. I followed the instructions that it came with to acclimate it to full sunlight since it's been in shipment for a while. After I transferred to a bigger pot with some Fox Farms potting soil that had worm casing in it. I then put it on a south facing window indoors that gets good sunlight year around. The soil selection might have been a bit intense for it at first since I got some burning on the leaves. After an initial phase of the leaves burning, the browning stopped spreading. Then the plant stabilized and starting growing slowly. Since then, I have a couple new leaves that are growing healthy and the other leaf stems are growing longer too. I only give it distilled water every week when I see that the soil looks and feels somewhat dry. Make sure to follow instructions and give it a high quality draining soil that is not to nutrient dense when it's ready for it. It's a slow growing plant so follow the detailed instructions and it will be happy. Looking forward to using the cocoa when it's ready!

Shipping was fast, but the plant came in with damaged foliage, I will see if it recovers.

Baby tree arrived in perfect condition, with big healthy leaves
