Frequently Asked Questions

All available plants are listed through our PalmStreet shop. Each listing includes the exact plant being offered, its assigned Readiness Level, and additional details about its condition.

Yes. Whenever possible, listings feature the exact plant you'll receive so you can shop with confidence and know exactly what you're bringing home.

Every plant is thoughtfully assessed and packed with its transition into your care in mind. Packaging methods are selected to help protect the plant during transit while supporting a smoother adjustment after arrival.

The Plant Transition Guide is a growing collection of educational resources designed to help plant collectors better understand transition care, acclimation, propagation, and long-term growing practices. It's intended to complement the Readiness Level framework with practical guidance rooted in real growing experience.

Studio Tools are practical products currently in development to support plant transition, propagation, acclimation, and grow-out. Each tool is inspired by the systems and methods used throughout our own collection and designed to make growing more approachable and consistent.
