Is your packaging recyclable? How is it packaged?
A majority of the packaging is recyclable. There are however, 1 poly-bag per plant that encloses the nursery container to both retain moisture and prevent soil loss.
How soon do I need to plant my tree, shrub, etc?
We actually recommend giving it a few days to acclimate in a shady location before planting. This allows the plant to recover from shock before introducing it to a new climate. Here is a quick description that you can adjust for your needs.
Give it time to adjust
Before you plant your new Tree/Shrub, it's crucial to allow it a few days to adapt to its new environment. We do however recommend planting it within the first 7 days of delivery. Here’s why:
- Recovery Time: Transitioning from our nursery to your home can be a bit of a shock to your plant. A short acclimation period helps it recover and reduces stress.
- Climate Adjustment: Every environment is unique. Giving your plant time to adjust to the local climate, humidity, and light conditions in a shady spot will set it up for better growth and health.
How to acclimate your plant
- Keep the plant in its container and place it in a shady, sheltered area away from high winds.
- Ensure it's watered adequately – the soil should be moist but not waterlogged.
- Monitor the plant for any signs of distress and allow it to adjust for a few days before planting.
After a few days of acclimation, your plant will be better prepared to thrive in its new home for years to come.
