Your plants just arrived in the mail! You're next question is...what do I do now? Depending on the time of the year & transit time, your plants may be a little stressed. If this is the case do not worry, plants are very resilient. With some watering and TLC, the plants will look as good as they did in the nursery before shipping. Please make sure to follow the following steps immediately after the package is delivered.
Step 1 - Carefully remove the plants from the boxes and accompanying packaging
While you are deciding where the plant will be planted, make sure to fully unpack the plant and remove plastic and paper from around the container.
Step 2 - Water and provide sunlight immediately after the package arrives.
Keep the roots moist but do not overwater. Keep the plants in partial or dappled shade where they will not receive too much direct sunlight. If the weather is extremely hot or cold, store the plants indoors to prevent further stress. Place them next to a sunny window or even in the garage during the hottest or coldest time of the day.
Step 3 - Put a plan together to put the plants in the ground (or planter).
