IMPORTANT NOTES BEFORE PURCHASING

Please note that there might be variations/imperfections on the leaves of the cuttings/plants, as shown in the photos.

Brown spots on the leaves are typical with variegated leaves due to a lower amount of chlorophyll.

Propagation of unrooted cuttings/wet sticks is the responsibility of the buyer.

Plants on clearance sale may have damaged leaves, reduced variegation, or reverted leaves. These items are not eligible for returns or refunds.

*****

WHAT TO DO WHEN YOUR PLANT ARRIVES?

It is recommended to allow your plant to acclimate for at least 2 weeks in its new environment prior to any repotting. This will allow your new plant to properly adjust and thrive in its new home.

If ever your plant arrives damaged (which may sometimes happen due to outside factors transit, handling, weather), please take a photo of its state upon opening the box and inform me within 24 hours.  Failure to do so will make your order ineligible for any refund or replacement.
