I got this plant from Hirt s and was pleased with the size and health, but disappointed that it had neither flowers nor buds right away.
After waiting a while with no results, I moved it to sit under a plant light, and gave it African Violet food. Voila! Tiny green buds appeared after about two weeks, and they -slowly- got larger and turned white.
Two weeks ago, the first bud opened to reveal a small, pristine white, delicate flower. The fragrance was heavenly! Everyone in the family stopped to inhale deeply every time we went past the pot.
When the blossom fell off the following day, I floated it in water, and it continued to provide fragrance for several days.
Other buds are swelling, and a total of five have opened including the first one. Each flower stays on the plant for about 24 hours, some a little more, some a little less. Yesterday, I had two OPEN at once. They fell off this morning, but another one opened.
Best of all, as the current crop of buds swell and open, I see new tiny green buds starting from branches that used to be bare.
The plant is easy to care for (don’t drown it, don’t let it dry out; give it good light; feed it lightly and infrequently with something like African Violet fertilizer), and is beautiful just for its leaves and overall shape. The flowers, when they come, are heavenly.
I’ve ordered several other plants from Hirt’s, and all of them have arrived in excellent condition. This is the first one that I’ve gotten to bloom.

I bought this plant and a few others from Hirt’s Gardens via Amazon. The plants arrived this week and I couldn’t believe how small they were for the price I paid. The condition seemed OK, although I thought the packaging was a bit odd, but the plants were not much bigger than the seedling stage. The pictures of the plants do not reflect the size, it would take at least a couple of years to grow. I’d save your money and try and find a local plant nursery, at least you know what you are getting and don’t have to pay the shipping cost.

I PURCHASED THIS PLANT A SHORT TIME AGO. IT HAS BLOSSOMED WELL BUT THE FLOWERS HAVE FALLEN OFF THE FIRST DAY OF BLOOMING. I DO AGREE THAT IT
ARRIVED SMALL FOR THE PRICE. I HOPE IT ADJUSTS WELL AS IT IS FRAGILE. IT IS
INDEED VERY FRAGRANT AND BLOOMED DURING THE FIRST WEEK I ACQUIRED IT.

I ordered several plants. They arrived and didn’t look like anything in the pictures. One was sick and dying. It was small and only had a couple of branches. I contacted the seller several times but they didn’t respond. I finally had to file an A-to-z Guarantee Claim with Amazon. This is a very dishonest seller.

The shipping was prompt. I received what would be a good size for a house plant, which is what I was looking for. The only problem I had was that it is advertised as being in bloom and the plant I had was far from that. However, the plant appears healthy and may still bloom so I am satisfied with my purchase.

I just purchased this mini to go with my existing Aerogardens. I was pleasantly suprised at the quality of construction — it is very good.You do get your money’s worth, and an extra sponge is included free. Yes, it is small, but that has it’s advantages — it is easy to find a spot for –and fits almost anywhere. And the small size makes it perfect if you only need a few herbs or greens. It is relatively quiet and my seeds sprouted quickly. The ability to pick your own seeds is very nice, and helps lower the long range cost. Like the other reviewer – I would suggest small/short plants. And replenishment supplies are very affordable — $20 for three sponges and mix for 10 gal nutrient. If you want to try your hand at hydroponic growing without investing a lot, this is an excellent way to go. I think it would make nice fun educational project for children. One thing that caught me by suprise was the suggestion to use distilled water. For now it uses very little though. If it later uses a lot as mentioned by the other reviewer I may switch to regular tap water.

I wanted to try to do a little indoor gardening over the winter but didn’t have the space for an Aerogarden, so when I saw the Power Plant Mini I was intrigued and had to check it out.
Like the Aerogardens, the Power Plant Mini grows plants in a soil-free environment using aeroponic technology, however with the Power Plant you aren’t locked into buying expensive, proprietary seed kits – just buy ordinary seed packets for whatever you want to grow. It has holders that fit “competitor’s seed pods” if you’d rather use them, but a packet of seeds is so much cheaper!
It doesn’t come with a grow lamp, but it fits on a windowsill so if you have a sunny, south-facing window in your kitchen like I do you’re good to go. The pump which sprays the water at the roots is fairly quiet – about as noisy as a small aquarium pump.
Would I try to grow something heavy or tall in a Power Plant Mini? No. (Though I might give it’s larger “cousin”, the Power Plant Pro, a try). But for herbs, greens, etc. it does what they say it does at a very affordable price.

this is an okay product but by “mini” they mean very small. it works fine but when your plant has a large root system you will be adding water every day, and you will need to tape the plant in place to support it. Herbs are okay but I don’t recommend trying to grow tomatoes in it! Its small size does make it easy to move from place to place for better light.

I own both the power plant mini as well as the power plant pro. The Mini is constructed as well as the power plant pro, and looks nice as well. It is easy to set up and I had seedlings within a week. I’m overall very pleased with the unit and consider it a good buy.
My only real concern is that unlike the pro, there is no way to take the unit apart to clean it when there are plants growing. The lid would have to go over the plants to be taken off. If there was any clogs in the water tubes coming from the pump, there would be no way to clean it out without destroying the plants in the process. This could be easily remedied by changing the way the lid attaches to the unit (I will be doing this myself in-between plants.) Note (as far as I can tell after two months, there have not been any clogs, but I don’t want to loose a crop because I couldn’t fix it if there was one. You also cannot tell if there is a clog because of the lid system)
Other then that, its a great buy and I’m Happy.
