How to keep it happy
Bright light with a few hours of direct sun. Water when the soil dries out; it is drought-tolerant and takes happily to pruning, which keeps its little-tree shape.

How it arrives
Potted, packed by hand at the nursery, and shipped Monday to Friday, usually within a day or two of your order. In cold months we tuck in a heat pack; in a hard freeze we hold your order and send a card that says it is on the way.
Our happy-plant promise
If your plant arrives worse for the journey, tell us within 48 hours and we'll send another, no forms, no fuss. Living things deserve second chances; so do deliveries.
Goes gently with
A little more on purpose
An add-on usually carries the order past $90, and shipping is on us from there.
