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 Scabra var Scabra
Oudtshoorn, WC
Haworthia scabra var. scabra
A tough yet beautifully textured succulent, Haworthia scabra var. scabra is known for its elongated rosettes of firm, dark green leaves covered in rough, sandpaper-like ridges. Its rugged surface and upright growth give it a distinctive, hardy appearance that contrasts nicely with smoother succulents in any collection.
This resilient species is well-suited to a variety of conditions, thriving in bright, indirect light with minimal watering. Its durability and unique texture make it an excellent choice for both beginners and collectors.
Interesting fact:
The name “scabra” means “rough” or “scaly,” referring to the plant’s coarse leaf texture—an adaptation that helps reduce water loss in its natural habitat.SKU: n/a -

ariocarpus kotschoubeyanus, Seed Grown
Oudtshoorn, WC
Ariocarpus kotschoubeyanus is a very slow-growing, spineless cactus native to northern and central Mexico. It is famous for its ability to camouflage itself in the soil, often appearing like a flat rosette of grey-green or brownish tubercles at ground level.
Characteristics:
- Extremely low-growing, often flush with the soil surface.
- No visible spines; instead it has triangular, wart-like tubercles arranged in a rosette pattern.
- Body color blends with surrounding limestone or clay soils for camouflage.
- Produces striking flowers that emerge from the center, typically pink to magenta (sometimes white).
- Very slow growth; mature plants can take many years to reach flowering size.
Cultivation:
- Summer-growing cactus.
- Requires very well-drained, mineral-rich soil with low organic content.
- Water sparingly during active growth (spring–summer).
- Keep almost completely dry in winter dormancy.
- Needs strong light but benefits from protection against extreme heat buildup.
- Highly sensitive to overwatering and rot.
Habitat:
- Native to arid, limestone or clay soils in Mexico.
- Often grows partially buried in the ground, with only the upper surface exposed.
