This fast-growing plant quickly develops into a full, lush specimen that makes a big impact. Prune regularly to maintain desired shape and encourage bushier growth. Rotate weekly for even growth on all sides. This natural air purifier filters indoor pollutants while adding tropical style. Wipe glossy leaves occasionally to keep them shiny and vibrant.

Good looking, quality control needs improvement
Color: Acacia
The shelves are fine but one of the mounting blocks was glued on backwards which meant the holes for countersinking the mounting screwed ended up on the wrong side. It was easy to drill new countersinks so no big deal but a star is docked for quality control. They are cheap and looks good so I can't complain much.

Good looking shelves
Color: Acacia
The shelves look great and are exactly what was needed for the application chosen. It wasn’t an issue for me, but the mounting hardware was missing. I always use my own wall anchors so it didn’t affect me, but it may have others.
