The lockdown brought out a plant enthusiast in me. Like many others, I turned to gardening as a way to bring life into my small space and find solace amidst uncertainty. One of my most exciting experiences as a budding "Plant Tito" was unboxing two rare snake plants: the elegant Sansevieria Coppertone and the striking Sansevieria Whale Fin. However, this unboxing came with its own lessons about transparency and responsibility in online transactions. đŸŽĽ WATCH THE VLOG: When I ordered these plants from two separate sellers on Shopee, I paid via credit card and anticipated a smooth delivery process. What caught me off guard was the additional ₱200 delivery fee charged by LBC when the package arrived. The seller never mentioned this detail in our chat, and I had assumed the shipping cost was already included in the price I paid online. It was disappointing, and for a moment, I felt blindsided. However, I accepted the delivery. Returning the plants to the seller wasn’t an option since I didn’t want these delicate leaves to suffer in transit. The experience left me reflecting on the importance of clear communication and thorough reading of terms when buying plants online.

Lessons Learned from My Plant Journey đŸŒŸ
This incident taught me two critical lessons: always ask questions and never assume. It is the seller's responsibility to highlight all additional charges upfront, but as buyers, we also need to be proactive in clarifying terms. Transparency is key to fostering trust in online transactions, especially when purchasing something as precious and perishable as plants. I now take extra steps to double-check shipping arrangements and make sure both parties are aligned before completing an order. This way, I can focus on the joy of unboxing rather than dealing with unexpected surprises.

The Sansevieria Coppertone, also known as the "Copper Snake Plant," is a true beauty with its unique bronze-green leaves and intricate patterns. When I unboxed this plant, I was captivated by how the light seemed to reflect off its foliage, almost as if it were glowing. Known for its air-purifying qualities and low-maintenance care, the Coppertone is an excellent addition to any plant lover’s collection. It thrives in bright, indirect light but can also tolerate low-light conditions, making it perfect for my small condo space. This plant is more than just decoration—it’s a reminder that nature’s elegance can be found even in simplicity.
