Aquatic plants can be damaged by cold temperatures during shipping. From November through March, we recommend adding a heat pack to your order if temperatures in your area drop below 40°F.

Maintains safe temps for up to 3 days
When to Add a Heat Pack
- Temps below 40°F at any point in transit
- Northern states during Nov-Mar
- Rural areas with longer delivery times
Note: Without a heat pack, DOA claims due to cold damage may not be honored during winter months.
