Shipping Policy
**Shipping Policy for Plants**
At MantisPlants, we take great care in preparing and shipping your plants to ensure they arrive in the best possible condition.
Bare Root Shipping
All plants are typically shipped bare-rooted, meaning that the soil is carefully removed from the roots to prevent any damage during transit. We wash the roots to remove any remaining soil and allow them to dry before wrapping them gently in tissue paper. This process helps minimize stress on the plant and ensures its safe arrival to you.
Pot Shipping Option (Not Recommended)
While we do offer the option of shipping some plants in their pots, this is generally not advisable. Shipping a plant in its pot can result in root damage due to movement and stress during transit. The roots can become constricted or disturbed, which can harm the plant. If you are still interested in this option, it must be arranged in advance with the vendor, and we will take extra precautions to pack it as securely as possible. However, we highly recommend the bare-root shipping method to ensure the best possible outcome for your plant.
**Careful Packaging**
We take pride in our packing process to ensure your plant arrives safely. Every plant is carefully packed, with extra attention to detail to protect the roots and foliage. We take care to secure the plant during transit, and make sure it is cushioned and stabilized inside the shipping box to avoid damage.
Our goal is to make sure your plant reaches you healthy and ready to thrive! If you have any questions about the shipping process, feel free to reach out to us.

Haworthia Nigra
Oudtshoorn, WC
Haworthia nigra is a little succulent with a big attitude! With its dark, almost black, spiky leaves stacked in tight layers, it looks like it’s ready to join the goth plant club. Native to South Africa, this hardy little character doesn’t need much to thrive but always stands out with its unique look. Perfect for those who appreciate a plant that can rock the “all black everything” vibe!
Care Instructions:
Haworthia nigra prefers bright, indirect light but can tolerate some shade. Plant it in well-draining soil and water sparingly, letting the soil dry out completely between waterings. It grows slowly and enjoys a light monthly feeding of diluted succulent fertilizer during the warmer months. Just remember: too much water makes it sulky!SKU: n/a -

Gasteria Lilliputana
Oudtshoorn, WC
Gasteria lilliputana is a tiny, yet striking succulent native to South Africa. This miniature plant features thick, fleshy leaves that form a dense rosette, with dark green to greyish-green coloring and distinctive white markings or spots.

In late winter or early spring, it produces small, tubular flowers in shades of pink or red, adding a pop of color to its compact form. Interesting fact: Despite its small size, Gasteria lilliputana is extremely hardy and can tolerate drought and neglect, making it an ideal choice for beginner succulent growers. Its slow-growing nature also means it requires minimal maintenance and thrives in bright, indirect light.
