Query: Like Other Reviews Said....Arrives Almost Dead :(

I wish I would have listened to what others said. I found it hard to believe that anyone would store and ship an aquatic plant without any water. It does arrive near-dead. Most sellers ship the aquatic plants inside of a small basket with a paper-towel type substance that keeps the roots wet during transit. This listing is shipped in nothing more than a standard cellophane bag. It is indeed a large quantity but after you trim the dead spots and put it in your tank more dies off. My beautiful tank is of dead plant particles. I do believe that over time I may be able to save some of the plant and hope the new growth compensates for the 3/4 of dead plant. Absolutely would not buy again nor recommend. I would return the damn thing but I know amazon would just throw it out and I hate to kill a plant that has already been tortured. Fingers crossed that I can revive this little guy. UPDATE: I changed my review from 1 star to 3. After 2 long weeks dealing with the plant deteriorating new growth began as little tiny petals on the stems. I have almost gotten all of the dead plant out of the tank and we are at the 3-week mark. It is now growing really fast and looking great. I am surprised that it has spanned itself about 24" across the tank. It's a stringy-type plant so it isnt "thick" but it makes the tank look genuinely "natural freshwater" if that's the look you're going for. It grows really long roots that basically float in the water. It's actually pretty cool. I would not buy another through this exact listing but I would buy another.
