Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between Clippings, Rootlings, Babies, and Plants?
Clippings
Come with at least 1 healthy leaf and 1 node, ready to root however you choose—whether in water, moss, or soil.
Rootlings
Come with at least 1 healthy leaf and a minimum of 1” established roots, started in either water or a sphagnum moss/perlite mix, ensuring a strong start for continued growth.
Babies
Arrive in a 2.5” pot with our house blend soil, featuring at least 2–3 healthy leaves and a minimum root length of 2”.
Plants
Come in a 4” pot with mature leaves and a well-established root system, ready to thrive in their new home.
Disclaimer: Plants are living things, and growth outcomes may vary based on care and environmental conditions. Each product is carefully hand-selected to ensure quality and readiness for its next stage of growth.
