SPECIAL WEATHER CONSIDERATIONS. Many plants go dormant in the cold/dark months and we may ship plants while they're dormant. However, the plants are still alive; they're just working on their root systems. It is normal and healthy for plants to go dormant. It helps ensure they have a long, happy, and healthy life. If you receive a plant without leaves or a pot of dirt, don't worry. Your plant is just dormant and will show new growth in the warmer spring months. If you're not sure if your plant is dormant, message us and send a picture.
