Wanted your new plants to come with pots? Well now they can! This means any small - medium sized plant can come with all the materials needed to pot it up when it arrives.
The Potted Plant upgrade kit comes with one pot in enough media to fill a 2.5” inch pot.
Our plants do not come potted for a couple reasons, some plants share pots with others of the same kind and do not have their own pot. Potted plants add a lot of weight to a box and to keep shipping cost lower we ship with minimal materials around the roots normally. With extra pot volume comes extra size to the box and again … shipping costs. The extra weight also brings a chance other plants getting getting crushed. So here at the Nursery, we don't normally ship potted unless stated in the sku. This is a safe and organized way to ship plants and be able to pot them upon arrival.
This kit comes in a bag with your order and you get to do the potting yourself upon arrival (see photos for details). The pots are still quite small and would be something similar to what they would be shipped in, if shipped to you potted from a Nursery. These pots will not likely be the plants “forever home”
Directions (see photos for details)
Step 1: wet sphagnum medium mix.
Step 2: place a small amount of media in bottom of pot.
Step 3: unwrap the new plant but leave the media in place that it was shipped in.
Step: 3 hold plant just above media in the bottom of the pot and gently place more media around plant.
Step 4: gently press media down so roots have good contact with mix. Do not pack to tight!
Recommend for Size “small” and “medium”plants, this may include Nepenthes, Venus flytraps, Sarracenia, Heliamphora, Darlingtonia, utricularia and Sundews.
Not recommend for size “large” plants
Please note: this Mix may be to moist for Pinguicula and Cephalotus.
This kit comes with 1 X 2.5” pot and enough sphagnum media mix to fill it, plant is NOT included.
As stated above, shipping pots and media will increase shipping cost.
