Live Plant Guarantee
Plants are living organisms and naturally vary in size, color, and appearance.
Minor cosmetic imperfections, natural leaf loss during shipping, seasonal dormancy, or transplant shock are not considered defects.
Customers are responsible for providing appropriate care after delivery.
If your plant arrives dead or severely damaged, contact us within 24 hours of delivery with clear photographs.
Approved claims may receive:
• A replacement plant (when available)
• Store credit
• A partial or full refund at our discretion
Lost or Stolen Packages
Once a package has been marked as delivered by the shipping carrier, The Hidden Grove Apothecary is not responsible for theft or packages left unattended.
If a package is lost in transit, we will work with the shipping carrier to resolve the issue.
Order Cancellations
Orders may be canceled within 12 hours of purchase, provided processing has not begun.
Once harvesting, packaging, or shipping has started, orders cannot be canceled.
Refund Processing
Approved refunds will be issued to the original payment method within 5 to 10 business days after approval.
Shipping charges are non-refundable unless the error was made by The Hidden Grove Apothecary.
