General Growing Guidelines:
-Unpack your new plant. Remove any shipping packaging/wrap, add water if the soil has dried out, mist the leaves and place it in filtered sunlight. Remember your plant has been in a dark box for 1-3 days. Don't shock it with too much water and hot, bright sunlight.
-After a day or two you can transplant it to your garden, soil area or container.
-Specific plants require different amounts of sunlight. Research online or contact me to find the optimum amount to provide your new plant.
-As a general rule, water only when the soil becomes dry on top. Too much water is almost always a BAD thing. Do not over-water(especially if in a container).
-Keep in mind plants may stress during shipping. Wilted, yellowing of the leaves is normal. Some succulents may lose some leaves during transit-this is normal and will not harm or hinder the plant's growth. Lay those leaves aside with no watering and watch a new plant grow! This is called propagating!
-Do your research on your plant(s) and how to care for it in your particular plant zone.
-Plants Make People Happy! Enjoy your new beauty & thank you for buying greenhouse grown!
