🌹 What to do when you receive your package:

Carefully unpack your plant upon arrival and inspect for damage. Plant it promptly in a shaded or filtered sun location with well-draining soil. Water thoroughly after planting. Protect young plants from intense sun or temperature extremes during their first weeks by using shade cloth or planting during mild conditions. Maintain even soil moisture—especially if natural rainfall is limited—by watering regularly during establishment.

Please do not break the root ball of Daphne plants before planting. They do not like root disturbance.
