NOTES for Buying Young Starter Plants:
🌱 The first photos show what the plant will look like when it’s mature. The actual plants for sale are young starter plants, shown in the last photos of the listing.
🌱 Young starter plants are still tender and can be easily affected during shipping, so if you live far away or if the weather in your area is extremely hot or cold, please consider this carefully before placing an order.
🌱 Please unpack gently and place the plant in a bright, airy spot to recover.
🌱 Avoid direct sunlight or fertilizing right away, give the plant some time to adjust.
🌱 Some yellowing or wilting leaves during transit is normal; the plant will quickly grow new leaves.
