Did you know that you can order live plants online from Home Depot? This is a perfect choice if you’re looking for a cost-effective option, and since there are so many Home Depot locations across the country, shipping times are usually pretty quick considering it may be coming from a store in the same city as you. They’re also known for their quality packaging — meaning, no damaged plants. However, with lower prices come some potential things to watch out for nursery and gardens, including pests and some aesthetic damage. Unfortunately, Home Depot is not the place to go if you are looking for any rare or hard-to-find plants. They stick to a fairly regular inventory, which includes popular and common plants that are sure to sell.
A lesser-known option for ordering plants online is Etsy. That’s right, Etsy isn’t just for crafts — there are a large number of nurseries, independent sellers, and even other houseplant enthusiasts that turn to Etsy to sell their plants. This means that there’s a huge selection of houseplants, including rare and hard-to-find varieties that may not be available at most nurseries and plant shops for garden plants for sale. However, there’s always a risk when it comes to Etsy or other small independent online shops that you may run into scams, so it’s especially important to do your research before you purchase. Make sure you read the shop’s reviews, and as a general rule — if it seems too good to be true, it probably is.
