Las macetas que mas me gustan.

Llevaban tiempo fuera de stock. Ya he repuesto y ahora a replantar y cambiar los sustratos!!! Al ser cuadradas optimizan el espacio. Su grosor las hace superresistentes.

Es preciosa

Se está aclimatando en casa Perdió la flores pero las hojas están brillantes y aterciopeladas. Es una planta bellísima y de crecimiento lento, perfecto para la ventana donde vive aquí en Madrid. Encantada
