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.

Gymnocalycium mihanovichii Hybrids
Oudtshoorn, WC
Gymnocalycium mihanovichii is a small, globular cactus species native to the semi-arid regions of Paraguay and parts of northern Argentina. It belongs to the Cactaceae family and is part of a genus known for its relatively easy care, compact size, and attractive flowers.
This species typically grows to about 5–6 cm in height and 4–5 cm in diameter. It has a flattened, spherical body with 8–14 broad ribs and a grayish-green to dark green color. The stem is often slightly wrinkled and marked by low tubercles. It bears short, slightly curved spines that vary in number but are generally not aggressive, making the plant user-friendly for handling.
Flowers appear from the crown of the plant during late spring to summer. They are funnel-shaped and range in color from pale pink to light purple, occasionally white. The blooms are relatively large compared to the size of the plant and open during the day.
This species prefers well-draining cactus soil, moderate watering (allowing the soil to dry completely between waterings), and bright, indirect sunlight. Direct sun in hot climates can cause sunburn on the plant’s surface. It tolerates mild cold but should be protected from frost.
In cultivation, Gymnocalycium mihanovichii is often the parent of colorful grafted hybrids like the “Moon Cactus” (var. friedrichii), which lacks chlorophyll and must be grafted onto a host plant to survive.
