Product Hunt

I recently moved and started searching for greenery for my new place. I was surprised to discover how expensive large plants/trees are. $300 for an elephant ears plant is hard to swallow.

@rrhoover Hey Ryan, totally hear you, it's a lot of money. But if you consider that you're not only getting the plant, but also the pot, the delivery, and the guarantees – it's actually quite fairly priced. In the case of the Elephant Ears Plant you're looking at, the pot alone retails for $189 from the manufacturer, Modernica. For the extra $110 you pay with us you're also getting the plant, the delivery, and the comfort of buying a plant without risk. Large plants are heavy, fragile and unwieldy so we deal with all the work for you: prepping, potting, and bringing them to you so all you have to do is just enjoy them in your home. And unlike buying from anywhere else, if you ever have any trouble with your plant, our team is always available to answer any questions and make sure your plant thrives!

@rrhoover same. I found a guy in LA - bought a beautiful 6ft fiddle leaf for $30 at the rose bowl market. Could buy a golden pot with the difference in money. I was intrigued by the idea but if you're ok at repottingandants I just can't justify the cost.

@rrhoover @lanewood Hey Lane, sounds like you got a great deal! It's quite rare to find a tall Fiddle for so cheap, even wholesale. Although certainly in general if you're willing to do the work, take time out to drive around, and have a green thumb, it's more affordable to do it yourself. What we offer is convenience, time saved, and peace of mind that you're making the right decision with whatever plant you get – and we've noticed our customers are willing to pay for this.
