Great buy always

I recently purchase my breadfruit tree which was a great buy. My tree came in a pot and was well protected for shipment. I will purchase from them again.

Leaves are spotted and falling off

The leaves are spotted and falling off and I am having a difficult time trying to reach the office. I am also waiting on the remaining portion of my order for weeks now
