• Due to changes at USPS resulting from the Covid-19 pandemic, only orders shipped with Priority Shipping can have a Live Plant Guarantee.

We've discounted it to half off for all orders, no exceptions or minimum quantities to qualify, so please select it! More info on the Store Front Announcement, or Direct Message us for details.
• Quarantine: Live plants need to be quarantined before introducing to a closed system such as an aquarium or water feature. Unwanted pests and hitchhikers such as snails, larvae, eggs, are common and to be expected, unless the plant is grown in-vitro aka tissue culture/lab grown. A 1:20 ratio bleach to water dip is generally recommended for most plants; so if you want to be sure your plant is 100% sterilized against unwanted pests or algae, please perform a bleach dip, and definitely always wash and rinse plants before introducing them to any new environment. Direct Message us if you need help doing this.
• Photos are a sample representation of the given species, not the exact specimen you will receive. They can be slightly smaller or larger than advertised (in the listing description under 'Size Range'), but not by much.
