Processing & Delivery
At checkout, select the ship week that fits your schedule best.

We ship Monday through Wednesday to ensure plants are not held in transit over the weekend.
You will receive a tracking number by email as soon as your order has shipped.
Shipping Regions
At this time, we only ship to customers located in the continental United States.
We do not currently ship to:
- Alaska & Hawaii – Our plants are tender annuals, so they can’t withstand a large degree of stress and variability.
Due to the perishable nature of our product:
- The temperature conditions throughout transit are not controlled or consistent enough to ensure plant survival. These plants are sensitive, and exposure to unfavorable temperatures—even for a short period—can result in irreversible damage or loss. Because we stand behind the quality of what we ship, we will not send plant material under conditions where there is a high risk of loss.
- The transit time quoted is more than double the threshold we have set in place. Our policy is firm that everything delivers in 2 days.
- Air freight rates come at a significantly higher cost, making it an impractical and unrealistic option for shipping.
- California – We currently do not ship to California due to agricultural restrictions surrounding the movement of live plants. These regulations can lead to unexpected delays during transit, which may affect the condition of the plants upon arrival. Because we prioritize delivering healthy, high-quality products, we’ve made the decision to limit shipping areas where we can ensure a consistent and reliable delivery experience. Thank you for your understanding.
