Ordered this philodendron joepii and the shipment was caught in the winter weather for two days longer than intended. Chemical hot back and styrofoam seem to have been inadequate. 🙃 Big big chops, supports, and a small heating pad. Not giving up yet.

    Avoid watering her for a week and try your hardest not to mess with her too much! Same thing happened a couple weeks ago and I lost about 50% of each plant but we SURVIVED! I have hope for you!

      Thank you! I think I have it set up well enough to let it ride for a while 😊

    Hopefully itll kick back well after the shock. Opphh I'm getting plants today and Monday that got stuck in the weather delays. I'm not looking forward to the unboxings.

      The anxiety is real. The more cold tolerant plant shipped in the same box and did just fine despite 💁‍♂️

    I’m too scared to order plants in winter. I ordered a hoya last summer from Florida and it was sent to Alaska for a two weeks vacation by the post office! 🥶😂

      Oh that sucks. I use a PMB now because my pkgs kept getting mis delivered. It's so stressful
