Debate no more - you will be glad.

Another wonderful assortment to add to my collection. Always arrive in great condition, carefully-packaged, labeled and gorgeous! Quick shipping and delivery from the folks at MCG. The only place I shop for succulents and cacti. Fabulous :)

Never a misstep

I get my plants when promised. They are securely packed so they are in great health when they arrive. The only reason I ordered this time was I’d lost a goats horn to a wind storm. They are one of my favorites. But I’ve simply never had a negative experience with Mountain Crest. I appreciate that there is at least a little info on care so I know what I’m getting into before I order.

Great hens and chicks variety

The website was easy to navigate and purchase. Plants came neatly packaged and arrived safely. They were healthy and just as described. I love them and they’re doing well. So I’ve already ordered more.

Awesome experience!

My order came fast and exceeded my expectations!! The plants were so healthy and vibrant. The packaging was perfect, nothing was messed up from shipping ( and I've had many bad experiences from other places that sent plants that came damaged and dying). I signed up for the subscription and am excited for that.

100 stars!!

Plants arrived super fast and packed with care! The cold weather is still fluctuating so I’ve been hesitant to order plants through the mail until the spring, but mountain crest made it so easy to offer a heat pack and great information on how to tell if you need one or not! It made the experience so much more pleasant (it’s always a joy ordering from them anyway!). The plants arrived in perfect condition and they’re so beautiful and my SOPs are gorgeously variegated! They have outdone themselves once again. If I could rate 100 stars I would.

My journey with succulents

Overall review:
After the loss of my mature Perle Von Nurnberg, my love for succulents greatly increased and that's where Mountain Crest Gardens came in. I love all of their succulents, their tips, ect! They are the best succulent-lovers out there! I've bought quite a few succulents from them, nine originally. Sadly, now I can only count eight since I lost track of one of the prettiest succulents I bought from them. However, I still love my remaining succulents bunched up in their beautiful terracotta pots. If I ever plan to buy another pot, succulent, or more soil, I always know where to go! 😉

Personal review:
Although I love these tough and pretty plants, I've learned not to become too obsessed with them. From becoming addicted to buying more succulents than I can care for, all the way to constantly racking my brain trying to define and interpret my Bear Paw succulent's health issues.

I've learned that whatever grows, 𝗴𝗿𝗼𝘄𝘀.

I quickly went from doing too little research to doing way too much research. To the point that succulents were taking up most of my time. I still do care for my desert plant friends, however they are not my top priority. Appreciation and admiration of God's creation does not and never will come above seeking the God of the Bible. Everything that is seen with the eyes is temporary, and that includes the plants we keep inside our house.

So, Mountain Crest Gardens....

Thank you for your amazing care for succulents and cacti. Just remember to keep the right priorities and to refrain from idols! The Creator is more important than the creation!

Great plants!

Nicely-sized, healthy little plants, most of them with lots of pups. One of the haworthias was practically splitting the pot open with how many pups it had- you couldn't even see the dirt it was planted in.
