How it works
The detailsBook online
Count your plants by size, pick dates, choose a nursery. You see the full price before you pay.
Drop them off
Staff photograph every plant as it comes in. Some nurseries will collect from your door instead.
Come home to them
A photo at least every 7 days while you're gone. Then you pick them up.
Why a nursery, and not the neighbour
Neighbours are lovely. They also forget in week three, and they don't know a calathea from a cactus. A nursery has greenhouse light and staff whose whole job is watering.
Long trips cost less per day. After 4 weeks every day is 30% cheaper, so a whole winter away doesn't cost a fortune.
Away for the winter?The Care Guarantee
Every plant is photographed the day it arrives. If one that came in healthy dies while the nursery has it, you get your money back. We look at the photos, not at who argues harder.
