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.

Euphorbia parvimedusae hybrid
Oudtshoorn, WC
A Euphorbia parvimedusae hybrid is a cultivated succulent variety developed by crossing Euphorbia parvimedusae—a rare and unusual species from South Africa—with another Euphorbia species, often to enhance certain traits such as size, growth habit, or ease of cultivation. These hybrids typically retain the unique, medusoid appearance of the parent species, characterized by a central caudex (swollen stem base) from which numerous cylindrical arms or branches radiate, resembling a sea anemone or the mythological head of Medusa.
Depending on the hybrid cross, the plant may show variations in:
-
Branch density – more compact or sprawling arms
-
Caudex shape – larger, more prominent, or more textured
-
Color – shades of green, grey-green, or even reddish tones
-
Spines – some hybrids may have more or fewer spines
Like most Euphorbias, these hybrids exude a white, toxic latex when damaged and should be handled with care. They prefer well-draining soil, minimal watering, and bright light—making them excellent candidates for collectors or enthusiasts interested in rare succulents.
