Plant Care & Growing Tips:

Open-Pollinated & Isolated – Important Information Before You Buy Our Live Plants & Seeds.
All of our plants & seeds are open-pollinated unless otherwise mentioned. Our Non-Isolated Seed & Plant Collection includes varieties grown in an open environment, where natural pollinators such as bees, butterflies, and wind may cause accidental cross-pollination. Because these plants are not hand-isolated or protected by physical barriers, we cannot guarantee 100% genetic purity of the plant or seeds from non-isolated plants. Read a more detailed breakdown.
