FAQ Orders & Delivery
Ordering
Contact us as soon as possible through Orders & Delivery with your order number. Changes or cancellations are only possible before the order has been packed, prepared for dispatch, or handed to the courier.
Once packing or dispatch has started, changes may no longer be possible.
Yes. A minimum order value of 25 € applies to plant orders. This helps reduce packaging waste, keep handling fair, and make sure live plants can be packed safely.
No. Please use a residential or business address where someone can accept the parcel. Parcel lockers can delay delivery, block courier handover, and expose plants to unsuitable temperatures.
If you are unsure whether your address will work, contact Orders & Delivery before placing your order.
Add your plants or products to cart, go to checkout, enter your delivery details, choose a payment method, and confirm your order. You’ll receive an order confirmation by email once checkout is complete.
Processing starts after payment is confirmed. Current dispatch schedules, shipping destinations, and delivery notes are listed on Shipping & Delivery.
Yes. Large, mixed, or fragile orders may ship in more than one parcel so plants can be packed more safely. Each parcel receives its own tracking link.
If your order looks incomplete, first check whether another parcel is still in transit. If all parcels are marked delivered and something is missing, report it through Arrival Issues with your order number.
Shipping & Delivery
The final amount depends on delivery country, postcode, cart contents and parcel requirements. Bulky, large or heavy products, including qualifying plant variants, island addresses, remote postcodes and non-mainland destinations may cost more than the standard estimate.
If a remote-area surcharge applies, or if an item needs its own parcel because of size, weight, shape or special packing requirements, the final amount is shown at checkout before payment.
No. Please use a residential or business address where someone can accept the parcel.
Orders delayed, returned or damaged because of an incorrect address, unavailable recipient or missed courier notification may not be eligible for a free replacement or voluntary refund.
No. The shipping table shows standard parcel estimates. Your final shipping charge is calculated at checkout after you add your items and enter your delivery address, before payment.
Some island, remote-area and non-mainland addresses can cost more than the standard mainland estimate. Affected areas may include Sicily, Sardinia, Corsica, Faroe Islands, Azores, Madeira, Balearic Islands and selected Greek island postcodes. We currently do not ship to the Canary Islands. The final rate is calculated at checkout where delivery is available.
No. Free-shipping thresholds apply to standard parcels only. Large/tall plant parcels are excluded from free shipping because they need separate packaging and parcel calculation.
Some plant variants need their own shipping box because of pot size, plant height or fragile growth. Variants with a pot size of 24 cm or larger, or a plant height over 80 cm, are treated as large/tall plant parcels. These parcel costs are calculated separately at checkout and shown before payment.
Yes. Bulky, large, heavy or mixed orders may ship in more than one parcel. If your order is split, each parcel can receive its own tracking link and may move at a different speed.
Processing usually takes 1–7 business days, Monday to Friday, depending on plant type, grower schedules, weather, and order volume.
Processing starts once payment is confirmed. Current dispatch information is listed on Shipping & Delivery.
Some postcodes cost more to service through couriers. If a remote-area surcharge applies, it is added automatically at checkout.
These surcharges are based on courier postcode classifications and cannot be added or removed manually. Current destination notes are listed on Shipping & Delivery.
Orders are prepared in Germany or the Netherlands, depending on plant type, grower schedules, and safe dispatch conditions.
We ship to the destinations currently available at checkout. Available countries, rates, free-shipping thresholds, remote-area notes, and transit estimates are listed on Shipping & Delivery.
Transit time depends on destination, courier route, season, and local delivery conditions. Country-specific delivery estimates are listed on Shipping & Delivery.
Tracking starts once the parcel leaves the greenhouse, not immediately after checkout.
Live plants can be damaged by extreme temperatures in transit. If temperatures along the route are below 0 °C or above 32 °C, dispatch may be delayed until shipping is safer.
Where needed, we use 72-hour heat packs and extra wrapping to protect delicate plants. Current weather-related shipping notes are listed on Shipping & Delivery.
Tracking & Delivery Problems
A delayed parcel does not automatically mean the plant is damaged. Unpack it promptly, remove wrapping carefully, and check the whole plant, pot, substrate surface, and packaging.
If the plant only looks slightly tired, follow Plant Care After Delivery and give it time to settle. If you see severe collapse, black or mushy tissue, broken stems, strong rot symptoms, or clear transport damage, take photos on the day of delivery and report it through Arrival Issues.
Check safe places, neighbours, household members, building entrances, parcel shops, and any delivery photo or courier note first.
If tracking was marked delivered very recently, allow until the end of the day in case of a late scan or delayed handover. If the parcel still cannot be found, contact Orders & Delivery with your order number, tracking ID, and delivery postcode/city.
Check tracking for the courier’s next step, such as redelivery, pickup, or return-to-sender status.
If the parcel is being returned or delivery details need checking, contact Orders & Delivery with your order number and tracking ID.
First check your spam, promotions, and order-confirmation inbox. If you used another email address at checkout, check that inbox too.
You can also check Track your order. If you still cannot find tracking, contact Orders & Delivery with your order number.
Tracking is not scanned at every step, so short gaps can be normal.
If your parcel has not arrived within 7 days after the latest estimated delivery date, contact Orders & Delivery with your order number and tracking ID so the parcel can be checked with the courier.
Tracking is sent by email once your parcel leaves the greenhouse. It is not available immediately after checkout because your order still needs to be processed and packed first.
If your order ships in more than one box, each parcel receives its own tracking link. You can check updates through Track your order once tracking is active.

Die Pflanzen waren prima verpackt und ein heatpack war im Paket enthalten. Die Lieferzeit hat 2 bis 3 Tagen gedauert, was aus meiner Sicht wirklich gut ist. Alle drei Pflanzen haben die Lieferung gut überstanden. Ich habe mich auf Hoyas spezialisiert und habe schon die nächsten Pflanzen meiner Wunschliste auf der Website gefunden. Daher wird die nächste Bestellung nicht lange auf sich warten lassen.

The plants are carefully packaged and arrive in great conditions (I’m based in Spain) and they’re always there to help in any way they can with your purchase.I have and will always recommend Foliage Factory to every friend I can. I’m not only satisfied with their plants and prices, but their customer service is exceptional.

Very healthy and well packed plant. Unfortunately there was one plant that ordered couldn’t be delivered as it was out of stock hence 1 star less.

Die Sendung kam leider in keinem guten Zustand bei mir an, kann passieren. Habe mich darauf hin sofort an Foliage Factory gewandt und habe selten einen so guten, schnellen, freundlichen und kulanten Kundendienst erlebt.

Everything arrived in good condition and very well packed - it wasn't easy with a fragile plant and a heavy bag of substrate. I recommend it!

Bester online-Pflanzenhandel den ich kenne (habe davor 4 andere ausprobiert). Eine teure Pflanze wurde beim Transport beschädigt und mir ersetzt. Der Kontakt dabei war auch sehr nett (danke Jan) und hat mir gut geholfen. Die anderen Pflanzen sind in einem sehr guten Zustand, keine Schädlinge, super Bewurzelung. Nur zu empfehlen! :)

The plants have arrived in perfect condition, the roots and the foliage so so healthy! I had problem with 1 plant out of 16 and they have responded to my email almost instantly and the issue was resolved straight away. I'm really impressed and satisfied, definitely getting more plants from them again!

I received perfectly heathy and absolutely beautiful plants, even bigger than expected. The delivery within Europe was really fast. I think Foliage Factory has one of the best plant web shops in the internet. It‘s just great to get so much informations about the plants. I will definitely order again :)
