How to Help Tropical Plants Recover After Shipping

Live tropical plants often need a short recovery window after shipping. Mild drooping, cosmetic stress, or slower posture on arrival does not always mean permanent damage.

What to do first

• Unpack carefully
• Place the plant in bright indirect light
• Keep airflow stable
• Check moisture before watering

What to avoid

• Do not repot immediately
• Do not fertilize right away
• Do not overwater in response to visual stress alone

When to contact support

If the plant shows severe decline, rot symptoms, or worsening condition after stable care, contact support with photos and environment details.
