Review on Set Of 4 Artificial Mini Succulent Plants In White Ceramic Pots, Colorful Faux Succulents For Modern Home Decor by Crystal Mack

I’ve had 3 succulents die in the past 4 months. Researched all the tips and followed all directions, but for the life of me, I can’t keep them alive.I also work remotely, and the office space in my apartment gets literally zero natural light. I needed some green in the room to make it feel a little less dreary. So my black thumb doesn’t strike again, I decided to get a few *artificial* succulents.Being in the "I need it now” generation, I ordered these succulents because they were the only ones that had good reviews and free Same Day Delivery. With a lot of these "trinket” sorts of items on ebay, it’s just luck of the draw with what you get. I wasn’t as lucky as the other reviewers.First, two of the succulents in the package had very obvious defects (see first 2 photos). One with a few dots of glue on the top rim of the pot and one with glue dripping down the side. The one with glue on the side also has a mark on the opposite side, so there’s not even a good side to display on my shelf. I tried peeling the glue off, but it’s very difficult to get off, and I’m afraid I would break the little pot if I tried to scrape it off. I’m guessing they don’t have much quality control wherever these are made because this much glue would be hard to miss.They look sort of realistic for artificial succulents, but I’ve seen a lot more realistic ones at any craft store. The pot they’re in feels like porcelain and would likely break if dropped. It’s got some weight to it, which is nice, but I would rather it have been higher quality plants and a cheap plastic bottom. The rocks are cute, but there were a ton of loose ones which you can see fell off when I was trying to take photos of the plants.I don’t recommend buying these, no matter how lazy you’re feeling. Save yourself $10 and go to World Market, Michaels, or Hobby Lobby where they sell these for < $2 each.
