Shipping & arrival
Plants ship the same business day theyโre ordered. To prevent plants from sitting in a warehouse over the weekend, some orders may be held to ship at the best time. Once shipped, most orders arrive within 2โ4 business days. West Coast orders ship on Mondays as transit typically takes five days. Orders over $150 ship free.
We ship plants year-round, and during cold weather, heat packs are included at no additional cost. Every order is protected by our Healthy Arrival Guarantee. If your plant arrives damaged or unhealthy, contact us within 48 hours of delivery with photos, and weโll work with you to make it right.
Styling & placement
Check the care tips above for this plant's light needs, then match the room: bright-light plants love south- or west-facing windows; low-light varieties soften dim corners, shelves, and offices. Statement plants read best with space around them โ beside a sofa, framing a window, or anchoring an empty corner. Smaller plants work in odd-numbered groups at varying heights.
