Very easy to grow. Remove spent flowers regularly to prolong summer blooming and encourage new flower production.

Apply a light mulch around the base to retain soil moisture and regulate temperature. Light fertilization in spring promotes vigorous growth and abundant flowering.

DELIVERY

Please note that we offer delivery throughout Quebec only for plants, pots 6'' and under, and accessories (jewelry, candles, plush toys).

Larger items (large plants, bulk items, and others) are available for pickup only and local delivery (45km and less). We are pleased to offer you local delivery for your plant purchases. You can choose between two time slots for delivery: 9 am to 12 pm or 12 pm to 5 pm.

However, please note that in some cases, particularly when we receive large orders requiring longer preparation time, we may not be able to meet the chosen time slot. We make every effort to ensure your plants are delivered the same day, but it is possible that we may sometimes exceed the estimated time.

Thank you for your understanding and patience. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us.

*Additional charges may apply for the delivery of large plants and bulk items (e.g., if a 6-wheel or 10-wheel truck is required).

Please note that each plant has its unique character, with the number of leaves and size varying from one specimen to another.
