To that end we package them as if we were shipping to our own mother. Sometimes a few leaves may drop or color may change in transit but don't worry. It's perfectly normal and your plant will most likely take a few days to re-acclimate to its new home. If you're in a cold location, consider including a shipping warmer ($5/ea) just to be safe. TIPS · Once you receive your plant, take it out and let it check out its new home. It may be a little tired from travelling (aren’t we all!). Plant it in new vitamin enriched soil and your plant should soon acclimate to its new surroundings. · Don’t put in direct sun immediately but gradually increase sun exposure to avoid burning. · Don’t overwater – cactus and succulents for the most part don’t want to be watered until they are dry half inch deep in the soil. Many cactus do not need watering at all in the winter months or during the plant’s dormant period. And never let your cactus or succulent sit in water…check those drip trays! · We generally recommend a porous, well-drained soil. You can also make your own by mixing dirt/perlite at a 1:1 ratio. · Sing to your plants! It’s good for both of you! ABOUT US... About 90 years ago, our grandmother, Rebecca, commissioned a greenhouse to be built in the deep end of their backyard. It sat in a clearing, beside the old cottage, with only an abandoned three well aluminum sink, and my granddaddy's first vegetable garden, between it and the dark tree line where deer and bobcats roamed beneath the pines. We grew up watching her take care of each of her finds, watering, cleaning, dividing and repotting them as they grew. She knew them so well, loved them even. She'd move them from one side of the greenhouse to the other depending on their needs, their appearance, the light, the pot, the space, the season. A tarped mound of play sand appeared one day beneath a nearby pecan tree. We knew it was not for us. I watched her, amazed by the exotic, other-world she had created inside those glass windows. Every shelf was full of crazy, beautiful creatures that seemed so foreign to other yards on the Georgia Fall Line where box woods traditionally buttressed Charleston grass, then gave way to mounds of daylilies and azaleas rolling wild to the edge of some nearby fence line or pecan orchard. Back then, in the 50s, 60s and 70s she learned wherever she could. From the set of the New Illustrated Encyclopedia of Gardening that sat on the bottom bookshelf in the den, from the local feed and seed stores in the south and east sections of town, from the church garden club she started, from a rural garden club near the house which met at the public school, and even at the farmer's market...she borrowed, shared and traded plants and knowledge. When I got my first apartment in Atlanta, I asked her how to choose some cacti for our place. We were standing in the middle of her azalea garden, where she relished such questions near the end of the day. "Always buy the ugliest ones you can find," she told me. Then she laughed, met my eyes and led me to the house. Today, almost 50 years later, I still have her lime green copy of Exotic Plant Manuel that she kept on the mahogany sideboard in the living room, and I use it every day too. And I know how happy she would be to see us, to see me, carrying on her tradition of growing, and loving, the ugliest cacti (and succulents) we can find.
