Let's Talk Substitutes...
We rarely have to make substitutes, but it does happen.
Please understand how incredibly complex it is to have all of the varieties available all of the time.
We do our very best, however plants are living beings that do not always grow as expected, scheduled nor anticipated. Backordered seed, poor/slow germination and various growing issues, especially unpredictable and unseasonable weather, may make some items unavailable.
If we have the variety you request, we will gladly send it to you! But if we don't, we need to either:
- Substitute with Similar Variety (default),
- Double Up on other varieties in the order,
- Substitute from Substitute List, where you list alternatives,
- Cancel Order - to choose this option, select Substitute List and write "cancel order". Entire order will be canceled and monies returned. No cancel order fee for orders canceled due to unavailability.
Please submit your substitute instructions during checkout in the Substitute Information area of the order form.
We are unable to call, fax or email for substitute instructions. We will follow instruction from Substitute Instruction box.
We will Double Up on other plants in your order if "no subs" or "call me" are requested.
Most people request Similar Variety. A Similar Variety means one that is as close as possible to the requested variety, in terms of heat level (for peppers), pod type, color or use. We do our best to provide the closest match. You may prefer!
Substitutions are marked on the packing slip which will accompany your shipment, or noted on My Account.
A big thank you to our customers who give us detailed instructions as to how to handle filling in for unavailable plants!!
