Orders

Live arrival guarantee

Every plant we ship leaves here healthy. If yours arrives in poor condition, we make it right — no lengthy process, no argument.

What we guarantee

Your plant should arrive alive, structurally sound, and in a condition suitable for settling into its new spot. We pack carefully and choose shipping days that keep transit time short.

We do not guarantee against minor cosmetic travel stress — a few dropped leaves or slight soil displacement during transit is normal and the plant recovers quickly. We cover anything that goes beyond that: a plant that arrives visibly dead, severely damaged, or clearly unable to recover.

If something goes wrong

  1. 01
    Take a photo of the plant as it arrived, including the packaging if it was damaged. Do this within 48 hours of receiving your order.
  2. 02
    Email us at hello@brightness-based.com with your order number and the photo. A short description of what you received is helpful.
  3. 03
    We respond within 1 business day and arrange a replacement or refund depending on availability and your preference.

Replacement or refund

If the same variety is in stock, we send a replacement at no extra cost. If it is not available, we issue a full refund for the affected item — including its share of the shipping cost.

What is not covered

  • Damage caused after delivery — incorrect placement, overwatering, or neglect.
  • Failure to report within 48 hours of confirmed delivery (we rely on the carrier timestamp).
  • Normal seasonal variation in appearance between the product photo and the plant shipped.
