For best results, do not transplant into a pot larger than 4 inches for at least 6 months.

Leaves may arrive wilted, yellowed, bent, broken, or may fall off during or shortly after transit. This is a normal response to shipping stress and is usually temporary. As long as the main stem remains healthy and undamaged, the plant should recover with proper care.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIf the plant arrives wilted, water it lightly and place it in a shaded area while it recovers.\u003cbr\u003e\nReplacement requests are only available for plants that arrive dead or severely damaged.
