    What is the 30 Day Guarantee?

    We're only happy if you're happy. If your plant arrives damaged or dies within 30 days, we will replace it free of charge. Simply reach out to us via email Ryan@plance.co with photos of your plant and order confirmation.

    What Does Pet Safe mean?

    Each plant in our pet safe collection is non toxic to both cats and dogs if consumed. Certain plants are toxic to animals and are not safe if consumed by our furry friends and these are indicated on each page as well. Feel assured you can have both plants and pets.

    Where do your plants come from?

    Our plants are grown and shipped directly from nurseries in Florida and Southern California. This ensures we can quickly and efficiently get our plants direct to you

    How do you prepare plants for shipping?

    Our standard packaging includes wood fiber to cover our soil to help prevent soil spillage. The wood fiber is placed over the soil, right under the foliage. We then use a bag to cover the planter and wood fibers. It is secured tightly with a zip-tie. 

    *Please note if you live in a cold climate or are shipping to a colder state we suggest that you purchase cold weather packaging.

    Why buy plants online?

    Our plants are ALL grown in the United States. You are supporting local businesses and receiving the highest quality plants with guarantees on their quality.

    Do you offer bulk discounts?

    Yes for orders of 15 or more plants reach out to our founder directly Ryan @plance.co

    Can I cancel my order?

    If you wish to cancel your order in the first 24 hours please reach out to us directly at Ryan@plance.co. After this we cannot cancel the order as it is already being shipped.

    Should I talk to my plants?

    This is heavily debated. Here at Plance.co we suggest you talk to your houseplants only if you use a funny accent.
