šæ Shipping Policy & Weather Protection
Thank you for shopping with us! We take great pride in sending healthy, thriving plants and want to ensure your new green friend arrives safe and ready to grow. Please review our shipping policy before placing your order to help protect your plant from weather-related stress.
š¦ When We Ship
We ship Mondays and Tuesdays only to prevent plants from sitting in mail facilities over the weekend. Orders placed after Tuesday will ship the following Monday.
š”ļø Year-Round Weather Protection
To help safeguard your plants from extreme temperatures, we automatically include a seasonal heat or cool pack at no extra charge. These protections help buffer your plant during shippingābut they do have limits.
āļø Winter Shipping (NovāMarch)
-
40ā72 hour heat pack
-
Thermal insulation (reflective wrap or liner)
āļø Summer Shipping (JuneāSept)
-
Cool pack
-
Thermal insulation to reduce heat exposure
š Important Note: To ensure these weather protection kits remain effective, you may need to upgrade your shipping speed at checkout. Heat and cool packs work for a limited window (typically 48ā72 hours), and standard ground shipping may exceed their protection timeāespecially in extreme weather or to distant locations.
If we believe your order is at risk due to temperature or transit time, we may contact you before shipping to confirm or suggest an upgrade.
š”ļø Shipping Responsibility
Once your package leaves our hands, we are not responsible for damage, delays, or loss caused by the shipping carrier or extreme weather conditions. It is the customerās responsibility to:
-
Choose the appropriate shipping speed based on your climate
-
Track your package and be available to receive it
-
Avoid leaving packages unattended outdoors
š Weather Protection + Fast Shipping = Safer Plants
We do everything we can to protect your plant, but for full protection, we highly recommend pairing weather protection with faster shipping during cold or hot months.
We also strongly recommend adding shipping insurance at checkout. If insurance is not selected, all risk during transit lies with the buyer.
š¬ Concerns After Delivery
If thereās an issue with your order, please contact us within 12 hours of delivery. Concerns reported after this window may not be eligible for review or support. Including photos with your message helps us assist you quickly.

Post-Shipping Recovery Guide
Shipping can be a little stressful for plantsātheyāve just taken a journey in a dark box, possibly through temperature changes and handling. Hereās how to help your new plant settle in:
1. Unpack Immediately & Gently
Take your plant out of the box as soon as it arrives. If the soil is dry, lightly water it. If itās still moist, hold off for now. A few damaged leaves are normal and wonāt affect the plant long-term.
2. Let It Rest
Place your plant in a bright spot with indirect light, away from direct sun, heaters, or cold drafts. Avoid repotting, fertilizing, or pruning for at least 2ā4 weeksālet your plant adjust naturally.
3. Expect Some Stress
Some plants may droop or lose a leaf or twoāthis is common after shipping. Be patient and resist the urge to overcorrect. Consistent care and light are key.
4. Wait to Repot
We recommend waiting at least 30 days before repotting. This prevents added stress and helps ensure your plant recovers fully before being moved to a new container.
5. Have Questions? Reach Out
Weāre here to help! If anything looks off or youāre unsure how to proceed, send us a photo and messageāweāre happy to guide you.
With a little care and patience, your new plant will bounce back beautifully. Thank you for supporting our shop and helping your plant have a smooth transition into its new home! š

Mel, is one of the sweetest shop owners that I know of! She puts her heart and soul into caring and educating plants! There are very few who would rather educate you than to sale you on a plant! That sale is just a bonus for her! Plants are her life, passion and dream along with moose and Jax! You would truly be supporting someone whom is real, caring and down to earth! Letās not forget to mention the outstanding plants that are in her care! 10/10 recommend! I adore Mel !
She is absolutely stunning! Packaging was great, she got to Pennsolvania so healthy and ready to keep thriving!

It is beautidul Mel! Thank you so much! 10/10 service! You will go so far wirh your business! Your love for plants, knowledge and your hard work wont go unnoticed! 1000% recommended!

I received my plants very well packed and they are doing wonderfully!š
I love this little plant. As Mel says, itās dramatic! It will drop to the tabletop when she is thirsty. Give her some water and watch her perk right up. She is very forgiving. I would recommend it for other beginners as well.

Nice, healthy plant, well packaged and super fast shippingš
