Donkey Tail is a trailing succulent loved for its soft, bead-like leaves and cascading growth habit. It’s beginner-friendly, drought-tolerant, and perfect for bright indoor spaces or hanging planters.

• Four individual 2-inch rooted plants

• Each 2-inch pot is full and healthy

• Typically contains 4–5 individual rooted stems

• Shipped fully rooted and in soil

Plants are selected from the batch shown in listing photos and video.

Because they are living plants, slight natural variations may occur. 

Carefully Packaged for Safe Delivery

Donkey Tail leaves are delicate, so we engineered our packaging to protect them.

• Secured inside protective corrugated inserts

• Support stick added to prevent shifting if the box flips

• Packed snugly to eliminate excess movement

Why We Ship Rooted in Soil

Many sellers ship bare root.

We ship rooted and in soil to:

• Reduce transplant shock

• Protect fragile roots

• Prevent additional stress during acclimation

When your plant arrives, it only needs to adjust to its new environment — not survive repotting at the same time.

This increases success rates, especially for beginners.
