Shipping & arrival
Ships within 1–2 business days, arrives in 2–4 days anywhere in the continental US — free on orders over $75. Plants travel bare-root in an insulated, braced box (heat packs in winter). If yours arrives stressed, text us a photo within 48 hours and we'll make it right.
Styling & placement
Check the care chips 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 — beside a sofa, framing a window, or anchoring an empty corner. Smaller plants work in odd-numbered groups at varying heights.
