I made an attempt to contact the seller, I purchased it from a shop on Etsy, but that particular shop is no longer active. For that reason, Etsy didn't hesitate about refunding my money. I'm just praying that she will bounce back, but if I'm fighting an already lost battle I would rather know. I get attached to plants I buy and if they end up dying it seems a little part of me goes with it. LOL I guess I'm going to patiently wait and see if I get anymore opinions or advice and take it from there...
