Java-plants

[mattb22]

Hi, im sure theres a lot of you familiar with www.java-plants.com, just wondering what the plant collections are like in your opinion, its obviously cheaper to buy the collection but is there any really nice plants in them?
Ive noticed they don't appear to come with any carpet plants which is a bit pants, so for my 48" community im considering buying the 36" collection and some riccia, just wanted your opinions?

Thanks.

id rather order from greenline than java or plants alive anyday.... www.aquaticplants.eu.com is the website, they do much better collections and have a much better selection of single plants.

Yeh greenline everytime for cheap plants. They aren't perfect but far better than anyone else.

they're okay. plants will arrive a bit tatty, but after a few weeks in your tank they will pick up.

Maybe in other people tanks, this is for a new set-up! Oh well it'll be okay hopefully...

slow service and terrible plants!

I usually order from greenline but gave java plants a go! toke well over a week to arrive and most of them failed in about 2 weeks. the packing was ok each plant or cutting baged labled were it shud be in the tank and the name.

I used to use Java, but they always used to send my plants to the billing address not the delivery address, I had some sitting in transit for three days once, they delivered to the wrong place three times, also when I called them I found them very rude, I now use greenline or aqua essentails! good luck with plants, they normally pick up in a few days anyway!
