Problem with Buying Plants Online


With online shopping becoming more and more popular, the ability to buy anything online is now possible. Even some products that you would think would be impossible to ship to your front door are now available to be shipped. One product that is now able to be shipped to you are live plants. I haven’t purchased a plant online yet but I have been looking and plan to buy one in the near future. However, there are some problems that I am coming across when looking for plants to buy online.

For example, I found a plant on The Sill’s website that I think is too much for the plant. The I am talking about is a house plant that is called a ZZ plant that comes in a small grant planter. The plant is only 4.25 inches tall and only 5 inches wide. The price of this plant is forty dollars before taxes and shipping. Depending on where you live shipping can vary. For me, living in the Midwest, shipping was twelve dollars. In total, for buying one plant, it costed fifty-four dollars because of taxes. Fifty-four dollars for one small plant that I can buy from the store for much cheaper doesn’t make me want to buy the ZZ plant online. It might just be this website but I can’t see myself buying plants online if they are going to be insanely priced. Let me know in the comments if you’re coming across this problem too.
