My plant arrived damaged.

I asked you to combine my orders and I’m still waiting for those orders to be shipped.
For any customer who contacts us to combine orders - please note that those orders will be subject to shipping delays. This is because they will require further administration before they can be prepared for shipping.

We also kindly ask that you do not attempt to ship too many plants in one box when combining orders, as we cannot ensure healthy plants on delivery if the order is too densely packed.

I received a shipping notification however tracking says that the order has not left Yumegarden !
When we print a Shipping Label, an email is automatically sent to you notifying you the order has been shipped. We often print labels in bulk and ship out orders in batches. This does not mean your order is lost, it simply means it has not been packed yet.
