What to take note of my order?

We will try to ship succulents bare rooted after dry thoroughly for a few days before packing. The roots of some plants maybe not strong, and roots also would be damaged with packing and shipping but it does not affect the cultivation of succulents and the growth of succulents. 

This may takes time to process. It depends on local weather conditions. So if you are in a hurry, please be cautious to buy. 

Proper dehydration ensures that succulents do not rot during long-distance transport. Succulents consume their own water during transport to maintain metabolism, so it is normal for the plants you receive to dry up.

After receiving it, plant it in slightly damp soil, do not water, do not expose to the sun, and place it in a cool, ventilated place. It can be recovered in about 1 week and can be watered and exposed to light.

Why is my plant different from the picture shown?

Plants may be slightly larger or smaller than the pot they are grown in, depending on availability or time of year. While we do our best to ship plants as similar to those pictured as possible, please keep in mind that all plants are unique from one to the next, and display color, shape, and growth variation based on current environment, time of year, and other contributing factors.

Please note that we ship our plants as dry as possible in the fall and winter months to prevent rot and or freezing of the plants. They will plump back up after planting. 

Since the plant is alive, its state will change over time, the planting environment, and the transportation environment.

As the lack of light in long-distance transportation, the color of the plants will fade which is normal. But in a sunny and ventilated environment, they can achieve the most beautiful state through your good care.

Note: Some varieties of leaves are easy to fall, which is a normal phenomenon, especially in long-distance transportation. But usually the fallen leaves can be used to grow new life. You can try it for fun!

So, if there is any problem when you receive, please contact with pictures within 48hours of delivery. So, please at least keep the boxes received for 48hours upon arrival.

Care For Lithops

Lithops also expect high quality soil permeability mixture. Ensure a well ventilated growing environment. 

Important note: Do not overwater. Make sure only water when the soil is dry. The soil must be watered completely and thoroughly each time.
