Our plants are tissue cultured rather than traditionally propagated, which helps ensure optimal health of your starter plants. Your new plants will need to be potted once received, and the first 10-14 days are the most important to ensure successful growing! Read our blog post “Caring For Your Newborn…Plants” for more information, and be sure to follow the instructions included in the box with your plants!
