 FAQs

  • I accept Zelle, Venmo, PayPal, Cash App, FB pay and Apple Pay. Please be payment ready!

  • Shipping charge starts at: 2 Day Express $60 -- Priority $15 -- Ground $10 --- USPS or UPS SHIPPING (whoever is reliable that week 🙄🤣)

  • All my packages pass "the shake test" - I will shake each package pretty firmly, and if I hear anything thudding or rattling, I will repack it.

    I have cold packs / heat packs for $3, but please understand they do absolutely nothing for the plant after about 10 hours.

  • All Shipping via UPS/USPS

  • I ONLY SHIP Mondays and Tuesdays to Zones 2+. Zone 1 I can ship any day. Charge depends on location and weight, see fees below.

  • Comment "SOLD" to claim.

    Please take a screenshot of the plant(s) you're claiming and send it to me in a message. Include your full name, address, and preferred method of payment.

    Please pay or reach out to me within 2 hours of claiming, or they will be listed as available again. If you do not pay within 24 hours, unless otherwise discussed, you'll be blocked. 🙂🙃

    I do offer payment plans; however, plants will not be shipped until the balance is paid in full. For any payment plan orders, you will get only the plant you claim under any circumstances. Payment plans require 1/2 down and the other 1/2 within 2 weeks. If you need extended payment plans, please feel free to reach out to me about making a custom listing on Etsy, which will carry an additional charge.

  • I will assume that you already know how to take care of the plant. If not, please ask.

    Smoke-free environment.

    All known cosmetic damage will be made known prior to sale, shown in pics or detailed.

    I do NOT sell plants with pests or rot. If you claim a plant and something changes from the time you claim until the time it ships, I will reach out and offer a substitute. Every one is carefully inspected before wrapping. I use the magnifier on my phone and will squeeze stems, roots, nodes, etc to make sure no rot is present. If there is no substitute, I will offer credit.

    🚫🚫 NO REFUNDS. ALL SALES FINAL.

    I am not responsible for any plants or packages once they leave my hands. I cannot control the weather, the courier, or any delays. All packages marked as plants. Shipping from NY state. This also means I cannot dictate what you do with your plants after they have left my hands either, but please do not mistreat them.

    I recycle some packing materials, just so you know!
