How Your Plant Will Be Shipped: Your plant will be professionally packed with great care. The plant will be shipped bare root wrapped in damp sphagnum moss for protection. I do not ship in the pot. Plants will be bagged properly, the root ball will be wrapped in moist paper towel and plastic wrap, the root ball is then stapled into place inside the bag, labeled with the plant's full name and secured inside the box for transit using shipping tape. If your plant has a long stem, the stem will be supported with additional thick shipping tape to prevent movement in the box during transit. All plants will come with a printed ID tag that is ready for use. The box will be labeled prominently with "Live Plant" and "Perishable/Fragile" stickers to clearly mark the box for the carrier. I only ship plants in boxes that are large enough so that they can not fit into a blazing hot standard mailbox, so even if you order a very small plant it will still come in a good sized box. This generally forces the carrier to bring the box to your door for delivery. It is imperative that you track the progress of your plant while its in transit so that you can retrieve it immediately upon delivery. There is a possibility that there will be some leaf or pitcher damage upon arrival and this is normal in shipping. The plants generally recover quickly and replace any light damage under appropriate growing conditions. This light damage is not considered actual shipping damage as it is only temporarily cosmetic. Due to the way that I pack my plants, great care must be taken during the unpacking process. Staples are used to secure the plants in the shipping bags, so the best way to get them out is to simply cut them out using a razor blade knife and scissors. During this process it is vital to support the entire plant by unpacking it on a large flat surface such as a table. This process can be time consuming and intricate, but it ensures an undamaged arrival. Be sure to have everything ready to pot up your plant immediately upon arrival (plastic pot, fully mixed and rinsed media, wooden/plastic stake if support is needed, twist ties to tie the plant to a stake if needed, R/O or distilled water to presoak media components and for a final flush of the pot, spray mister, tub or clear plastic bag that is large enough to contain the pot and plant - only IF the plant needs to acclimatize to much lower humidity. Keep in mind that the plant may have to be misted during the potting process to keep it from drying out (especially the new pitcher tendrils) depending on where you do it. When my Nepenthes are prepped for shipping, the traps are emptied of both fluid and caught insects. Be sure to refill each of the empty pitchers one quarter full using R/O or distilled water (do not use tap water for this as it may damage the pitcher). Remove any dead/yellowing leaves and pitchers upon arrival.   Combined Shipping/Shipping Options/Costs/Guarantee: If you want to combine shipping on multiple plants, I will be happy to adjust the shipping charges. Simply request an invoice from me before paying or let me know that you want me to send you a new invoice with updated shipping costs. If you happen to pay first anyways, I will provide a refund.

I am not responsible for any kind of postal mishandling, handling time or shipping temperatures as I have no control over this via USPS Priority Mail. Both USPS Express and Priority Mail have been very reliable for me. The mail has been slightly slower due to the Covid situation, so please be patient. While Priority Mail has sometimes been slower by a day or two, it is still working very well for me. Please do not order if you are in an area with dangerous shipping temperatures or conditions.
