Quite Beautiful — Also Some Work to Set Up

I ordered a set of two of these and almost sent them back because they had some crinkled bent leaves from shipping, but after I spread the leaves and did some steaming on the crinkled bent leaves they looked too pretty to send back, but —The additional leaves for elevation did not fit in their stalks, not with WD40 and not using some vice grips to try to cajole them in so ultimately, to get the leaves to join correctly with their stalks, I filed the plastic on the leave joining ends down and that took some effort and time.That said, they're beautiful, beautiful enough to put the time in to make them work, rather than throwing my hands up and sending them back. Probably one ordered alone in a box wouldn't have damaged bent leaves, I ordered set of two and they're packed with pots at both ends of the shipping box, which impact the leaves they are up against and bend them some.Overall I'm pretty happy with the plants and how they look, but it would have been nice if everything worked and I did not have to spend time steaming leaves and filing stalks (with pumice stones and a nail file — that diamond nail file is never coming back from this oops) to make them entirely work.
