Cast Iron
Shipping & Returns
Shipping live plants sometimes has its challenges when dealing with inclement weather but we strive to have every single order shipped out on their scheduled shipping date. Most orders will be scheduled to ship within 1-2 weeks of ordering. Because a plant needs TLC we only ship out on Mondays-Wednesdays to ensure the plants aren’t stationed somewhere over the weekend with no water or sunlight.
As tough and hardy as its name implies, the Cast Iron Plant is so easily grown that even those with a brown thumb can still produce a beautiful plant for their garden. Sturdy, long-lasting and capable of growth where many other plants fail, this slow-growing perennial can handle total shade, which makes it great to plant around decks or along the foundation of your home where sunlight may be minimal. With a maximum size of approximately 3 feet tall and 2-3 feet wide, this fuss-free, lush looking evergreen plant is incredibly versatile and will fit in a wide variety of areas where you may want to use it. Fill in those hard to cover areas of your yard filled with shade only easily when you plant one or more of these beautiful, unique plants to cover unsightly, bare areas.
