Which plant for whom? A quick guide
5 tips to make your plant gift special
1. Order early. Orders are dispatched in 2–3 working days and take about 5–8 days in total to arrive. Order at least 10 days before Diwali so the plant reaches on time.
2. Dress it up. Plants arrive in a simple nursery pot or bag, so it's easy to shift them into a decorative pot or wrap them in jute or a nice cloth. Add a diya beside the plant and your gift is ready.
3. Add a care note. Two lines are enough, for example: “Water when the top soil feels dry. Keep near a window.”
4. Gift a little food too. Add a pack of Vermicompost or Universal Potting Mix so the plant gets a healthy start in its new home.
5. Gift the whole family. Order above ₹699 and delivery is completely free. Three or four plants for different relatives usually cross that easily.
Your nursery, at your door
Every Tarunid plant is packed strongly so it reaches you safe and healthy. This Diwali, gift something that grows. 🪔🌿
