About,
We are an exotic plant shop based in Los Angeles, California. As a California registered Nursery, it’s our mission to guarantee plants from our shop are healthy and insect/pest free, shipping directly from our greenhouse to your door

Shipping,
Please allow us up to 3 business days to prepare your order. All plants will be in quarantine before shipping and will be packaged under great care. If you have any special instructions or need the package to leave our nursery at any specific date, please add a note in your order during check out. Soils and pots are not included, to prevent any damage or rotten issues.

Tips:
Once you receive your purchase, we recommend planting the succulents in soil immediately. Due to shipping, the plants may appear dry, soft, or lighter/darker in color compared to the photos in the online pictures.

Soil,
Place your plants in porous, well-draining soil. To create an adequate cactus mix, simply combine pumice, perlite, or grit to cactus soil to provide the proper drainage. Succulents require little watering and never like to sit in wet soil. We normally suggest our customer to use 1:1 ratio (1 part amendment like pumice, perlite, lava etc., 1 part cactus/succulent soil) soil mix to start with.

Sunlight,
Introduce sunlight to your new plants gradually. Do not put your succulents in direct sunlight, but instead try to increase the sun exposure gradually in your home or outside. Leaving your new plants in direct sun will lead to sunburns. We normally suggest our customer to have 40% shade fabric in the area that has intense sunlight.

Watering,
Succulent: water when soil is dry dry, do not let the plant sit on wet soil overnight.
Cactus: NO water until plant rooted, and No water in winter or dormant season.
