Arrived overnight, looking exactly like the photos
Ordered Tuesday at 8 PM, delivered Wednesday by 9:30 AM. Plant was healthy, tall (about 16 inches), came in the charcoal pot exactly as shown. The packaging was thoughtful — wood shavings, tied stems, no soil spill. Two weeks in and it's already pushed out a new leaf.

Survived me. That's a big deal.
I have killed every plant I have ever owned. Got this for the bedroom. Watered it once in 6 weeks. Still alive, still growing. The team also responded on WhatsApp within an hour when I asked if it was getting too much sun. Not paid to say this.

Beautiful plant, slightly smaller than expected
Plant itself is gorgeous and very healthy. Only minor gripe — I expected the medium size to be taller, but it's closer to 14 inches than 18. Still very happy with it. The Khurja ceramic pot is honestly the best part.

About the Brahmi Dollar Plant
The Brahmi Dollar Plant (Centella Asiatica) is a herbaceous perennial from the Apiaceae family, characterized by its coin-shaped leaves and trailing growth habit. Native to tropical regions, it's been used traditionally in Ayurvedic medicine for its therapeutic properties. This plant features slender, creeping stems connecting individual plants together, with long-stalked, rounded leaves that have a smooth texture and distinctive palmately netted veins. Its exotic appearance makes it a focal point in any indoor garden while offering potential wellness benefits.
Light & Placement
The Brahmi Dollar Plant thrives in medium to filtered light conditions. Avoid direct sunlight as it can burn the leaves. The ideal placement is near east or north-facing windows where morning sunlight can reach the plant. It can tolerate lower light conditions but may grow more slowly. For indoor spaces, well-ventilated areas with diffused light work best. This adaptability makes it suitable for various rooms in the home, from living areas to bathrooms, as long as it receives adequate indirect light.
Watering & Humidity
Water your Brahmi Dollar Plant when the soil is completely dry. Since it's often grown indoors, the soil may take a few days to dry out completely between waterings. Water thoroughly each time, ensuring excess drains away. The plant prefers moderate humidity but can adapt to typical indoor conditions. In drier environments or during hot summers, occasional misting or placing the plant on a pebble tray with water can help maintain adequate humidity around the foliage.
Pet Safety & Toxicity
The Brahmi Dollar Plant is considered non-toxic to pets, making it a safe choice for homes with cats or dogs. While it's safe to have around pets, it's still best to discourage pets from chewing on any houseplants. This safety feature, combined with its air-purifying qualities and low maintenance needs, makes the Brahmi Dollar Plant an excellent option for pet-friendly households looking to add greenery to their living spaces.
