Plant Spa

Plant Spa menu

Optional care while your plants stay with us. Check what you’d like on the form; we confirm the price with you before any work.

Soil refresh is a full repot: we pull the plant, remove all the old soil, refill with fresh mix chosen for that plant, and replant it in the same pot.
Up-pot is the same work into a bigger pot you provide. The price follows the new pot size, because the bigger pot takes more soil.
Bring your own soil or supports and you pay labor only.
Premium gritty succulent mix and bendable sphagnum-filled moss poles are quoted.

Questions

Good to know

Is my spot booked when I send the form?

Not yet. The form is a request. Your spot is booked after we send your quote and you accept it.

How much space do I need?

Spaces come in 3 × 3, 3 × 5, 5 × 5 and 10 × 10 feet. The space helper on this page (step 1 of the form) gives you a suggestion from your pot sizes. We confirm the right space after we see your photos.

What happens in quarantine?

Every plant is inspected and treated with neem oil and insecticidal soap, or another suitable treatment, before it joins the other plants. This protects your plants and everyone else’s.

What about my pots?

We handle every pot with care. Older pots can have tiny cracks you can’t see, and moving heavy pots can cause damage. Please tell us about cracks, repairs or fragile pots before we move them.

Is there a deposit? What if I cancel?

A 50% deposit is due at booking, and the balance is due at drop-off or pickup. Cancel at least 7 days before your scheduled drop-off or pickup and we refund your deposit in full; after that, the deposit is not refunded.

When do my plants come home?

No later than March 1, 2027. We’ll contact you ahead of time to set a date. After that, late-pickup fees apply each week (3 × 3 ft $50, 3 × 5 ft $75, 5 × 5 ft $100, 10 × 10 ft $200), plants may be moved out of the greenhouse after March 15, 2027, and plants left after April 1, 2027 are considered abandoned.
