I just bought one today! Had been wanting one and watching your videos about them. Found it for $23 at Menard’s, a Midwestern US home improvement store similar to Home Depot. I’ve noticed this particular store has had a problem with mealy bugs the past week or so. So I didn’t buy it yesterday. Thought about it all day today, and had to have it! I inspected it closely and could not find any bugs on it. So I brought it home and washed it in the shower. It’s currently on quarantine until I can make sure it’s bug free before it meets my other plants! It’s so beautiful! 😍

Wish I had the same experience as some of the others but the first Silver Sword I received was damaged by cold despite purchasing Winter Insurance and they were great in addressing it. However, the replacement (hindsight, should’ve gotten a refund) had severe root rot. I submitted a review a while ago but it’s not up. So… Not even sure how to feel about it. Cut the roots and stuck the nodes in water and hoping for the best, but from what I heard, SS take a REALLY long time to root. A couple of the leaves have already started to yellow. Update: They issued a refund for the SS due to the circumstances.
