We try our very best to pack & and ship out the healthy plant as soon as we receive your order. The plant you will receive may be slightly different from the photos in the listing since no two plants are the same. A strong, healthy root system is the most important feature of a plant. Damaged foliage can sometimes occur in shipping. If this happens, simply cut those pieces off and discard them. Oftentimes, leaves will experience some yellowing in transit due to the lack of light in the box. However, the new growth will become the normal shade of green once the plant recovers from shipping. Please notify us with photos of the package and plants right away if you receive a plant that is damaged more than the normal stress of shipping, as stated above.Thank you. Happy gardening, happy life! Carolina Lavender Farm
