Live Plants – Frequently Asked Questions
Shipping
How are live plants shipped?
How are live plants shipped?
All live plants are carefully prepared and hand-packed to protect them during transit. Plants are shipped in their pots (not bare-root), with soil secured using polyfill to prevent shifting. Stems and foliage are supported with paper wrapping to reduce movement and minimize stress during shipping. We may adjust shipping timing based on weather conditions to protect plant health.
When will my plant ship?
When will my plant ship?
Most live plant orders ship within 5–15 business days. Shipping may be delayed during extreme heat or cold to protect plant health. Processing time is separate from transit time.
Do you ship live plants year-round?
Do you ship live plants year-round?
Yes, we ship year-round when conditions are safe. During extreme weather, we may temporarily hold shipments rather than risk damage in transit.
What should I expect when my plant arrives?
What should I expect when my plant arrives?
Minor shipping stress is normal. This may include slight leaf drop, drooping, or cosmetic blemishes. Most plants recover after a short adjustment period with proper care.
My plant lost leaves during shipping — is it dead?
My plant lost leaves during shipping — is it dead?
Not necessarily. Leaf loss can occur due to shipping stress or temperature changes, especially in winter. As long as the plant shows signs of life at the root or stem level, it is considered viable and may recover.
How can I protect my plant during cold weather shipping?
How can I protect my plant during cold weather shipping?
During colder months, we may recommend adding a Heat pack to help reduce transit stress. Heat packs help mitigate risk but do not eliminate the possibility of cosmetic cold stress.
Do you offer heat packs?
Do you offer heat packs?
Yes. Heat packs are available during colder months and are recommended when temperatures may affect plant health in transit. Please note that heat packs reduce risk but do not guarantee plant health, especially during extreme weather.

How long will it take to receive my order?
Most orders ship within 5–15 business days from the date of purchase.
We are a small, independently operated team, and all plants are inspected, prepared, and packed by hand. Unlike standard retail items, live plants require careful timing and handling to ensure safe delivery.
Processing times may be extended during:
- Holidays and peak seasons
- Extreme weather conditions
- Carrier delays outside of our control
Processing time is separate from transit time.
Will my plant look like the one on the website?
Will my plant look like the one on the website?
Good question — and we’re glad you asked. Because we work with living plants, our inventory is always changing, and plants are often grown and shipped in batches. This makes it impractical to photograph every individual plant.
The photos on each product page are representative of the average size and fullness of that plant at the time of listing. While natural variation is expected — some plants may be slightly larger or smaller — your plant will be similar in overall appearance and quality.
Each plant is hand-selected and packed with care to ensure it arrives healthy and ready to grow.
What should I do after unboxing my plant?
What should I do after unboxing my plant?
Unbox your plant promptly, place it in bright, indirect light, and allow a few days to adjust before repotting or making changes. See our Plant Unboxing Guide for detailed tips.
Do you offer express shipping?
Do you offer express shipping?
