We want your plants to arrive to you safe and happy. To that end we package them as if we were shipping to our own mother. Sometimes a few leaves may drop or color may change in transit but don't worry. It's perfectly normal and your plant will most likely take a few days to re-acclimate to its new home. We ship via USPS Priority Mail. We try to ship on Mondays and Tuesdays so that your babies aren't stranded somewhere hostile along the way over the weekend. If you're in a hurry and prefer a different arrangement, please email us and let us know. And if you're in a cold location, consider including a shipping warmer ($5/ea) just to be safe.
