I am selling you a larger plant with multiple plants per pot... the photo is a sample of the average size = sometimes they are little smaller
if you are looking for smaller plants please check with us. = shipping is a little higher on this plant as I need to be able to fit in the box.
SALE IS FOR 1 POTTED PLANT = Multiple PPP - Root ball is about 2.75" across by 3" deep
Plants are usually 2" = 4" + tall
Our plants ship without the pot = Because we have found they travel better that way... The plastic pots seem to damage leaves of the neighboring plants in the shipping container. The root ball are wrapped in plastic to act as a pot
DEFINITELY GROWN FOR ITS UNIQUENESS
THIS PLANT GROWS EASY
THIS PLANT PREFERS WELL DRAINED BUT MOIST SOIL
This plant likes to eat... So once established... Fertilize often and keep moist - Do not over water.
WE WILL HAVE PLUGS AND CUTTINGS AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE BASED ON THE SEASON
We ship plants daily based on these rules = When we print your label if it shows 2 day shipping then we will ship as long as your day does not fall on a Saturday or Sunday. Mail does move on Sundays = They just do not deliver on Sundays... We try not to ship if it lands on Saturday = Just in case it gets delayed a day in travel. So please watch your tracking number so you can see when they will be arriving.
If you have any questions please ask.
This is VERY IMPORTANT: You are receiving live plants please be sure to remove them from the box once received. These are live = NO DIFFERENCE than if it was a puppy in the box... so take them out and allow them to get some air... You should have your pots ready to go for planting as this is important for its initial start - its already stressed some from the travel in a box... give its roots a happy place and get them going well - there are instructions for all plants in the box or scroll down below for those instructions... We want you to have success for your plants... This is VERY important!
Shipping Info... We do utilize flat rate boxes... so we do invoice shipping based on them... keep in mind the cost for shipping flat rate boxes might be a tiny bit more than paying at the post office as we have fees attributed to shipping also.
We do ship most economical size package - HOWEVER!!!
I am offering a few different shipping options that you will notice... We are now offering "Hotel Shipping" If you want a larger box than we feel necessary then please choose the higher shipping option... Its always the "1" person that feels they need to have the stuff shipped in a Cadillac... So if you feel you need more room in the box please choose the higher shipping option at check out... If you are asking for combined shipping we will now offer 2 - 3 shipping options for you to choose for this same reason... Sorry, but I am offering this for those that prefer to pay more for shipping.

YOU WILL RECEIVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS (below) IN YOUR PACKAGE FOR PLANT CARE... YOU NEED TO HAVE YOUR CONTAINERS, GOOD DRAINAGE SOIL, FUNGICIDE... READY WHEN YOU RECEIVE YOUR PLANTS
THE FUNGICIDE IS VERY IMPORTANT - IT IS A PRACTICE USED IN ALL COMMERCIAL GREENHOUSES... SO USE IT YOURSELF
Thank you for your purchase… here is a quick little note for some tips for a good healthy start to your plants….
PLEASE NOTIFY US IMMEDIATELY IF YOU HAVE ANY PROBLEMS WITH THE SHIPMENT.. Including sending photos if need
We have no control on how our customers take care of the plants... I cannot do anything for you if you delay in letting me know there is a problem... We will not send unhealthy plants...
Your plants just traveled a long way and were cooped up, wrapped in plastic and paper…. They do not really like that…
Think of them as live animal in a box... you would not leave the animal in there... take them out right away and get them some fresh air
To ensure strong healthy plants…. We suggest to spray the plants with a fungicide (plant disease control) as its almost guarantee that with the cooped up box they were in they will have developed a fungus issue – that includes black spots on the leaves or the possibility of them rotting at the base (it may not show right away) and the plant just dies for no apparent reason…
Pot your plants in a good well drained plant medium or if they are large enough you can install them in the ground…
MAKE SURE YOU WATER THEM
After 2 – 4 days you can water the plants with ½ strength fertilizer every time you water if you desire…
DO NOT FERTILIZE WHEN YOU FIRST GET THEM – fertilize plants also fertilizes the fungus if its there and it will spread faster… give it a few days for the fungicide spraying to take effect…. Be sure to spray the base were they meet the soil very good
It's always good practice to use fungicide treatment every 14 – 21 days to help keep your plants happy and healthy.
I hope this helps you grow these plants to look beautiful.
