IMPORTANT:

We are currently in the spring/summer shipping season.  Temperatures may vary.  Your order may be held if temperatures are too hot along the shipping route for shipping live plants.  Please be patient, August is very hot and humid in NY.

 

What you will Receive: 

I grow all my African violets in 3-oz solo cups or 2-1/2 inch nursery pots.  I don't list plants until they are at least 3 months old.  Some will be smaller than others, depending on the nature of that variety.  If the plant is in high demand, I may send out smaller than usual plants, just so you won't have to wait as long.  Please be prepared to transplant your African Violet within 1 month of receiving it.  Below is a sample of what you could receive.

 

SHIPPING SPECIFICATIONS:

Please allow at least two weeks for shipping.  We are a small operation and this is not our only job.  Shipping live plants takes care and much time, it is not something that can be rushed.  

******Spring/Summer Shipping Rates Are In Effect******

 

Shipping is 2-3 business days via Priority mail within the United States only.  All plants are shipped on Saturday, Monday, or Tuesday.  This is done to avoid the chance of letting the plants sit for too long in  a box.
