GUARANTEE
Living plants are perishable and will react to changing conditions. They will go through a period of adjustment as
they settle from their journey to you and into their new homes.
Our quality selection process and Plant Doctor support guarantee that your plant will survive and thrive through this
adjustment period. If your plant dies within the first 45 days of arrival, we'll replace it for you.
The requirements for a replacement are the following:
-
If you notice any issues with your plant within the first 45 days of arrival, contact our Plant Doctor team with
images and a description of ailments using your account
https://www.leonandgeorge.com/account/plant-doctor. They will help diagnose what's going on and prescribe recommended adjustments.
-
Despite the adjustments and best efforts of care, if your plant dies within this adjustment period, we'll
send you a replacement.
- Ailments must not be due to mistreatment or neglect as determined by the Plant Doctor
- Limit of one replacement per plant ordered

1 How do I know if my plant is dead?
Leaf drop is not a sign of a dead or dying plant, and it is not uncommon for plants to lose leaves during periods of transition, whether that’s transitioning to a new home or from season to season. To determine if a plant is still alive, scratch a trunk or stem at the base of the plant with something sharp like a coin or your fingernail. If the tissue below is green-tinged and damp, your plant is alive and will continue to sprout new fronds. If it is difficult to scratch, and only shows signs of dried black or brown tissue below, the plant is dead.
