This listing includes 2 El Capitolio Red Hibiscus live starter plants. These are young plants supplied at 2-inch nursery-pot starter size and are not fully rooted into the 2-inch nursery pots. You will receive plants similar to the starter plant pictured.
El Capitolio Red is a tropical hibiscus cultivar grown for its distinctive red flowers and ornamental foliage. The starter plants do not currently have blooms. Flowering photos, when shown, represent the cultivar's flowering appearance and should not be interpreted as the condition of the plants at shipment.
The 2-inch nursery pots are not included. The specific listing states that each starter plant will ship in a soil pod, so the soil-pod condition has been used instead of the conflicting general bare-root notice. Natural variation in foliage, branching, leaf count, and overall appearance should be expected.
Plant Condition Disclosure:
Live plants may be shipped dormant, leafless, recently pruned, bare root, or partially defoliated depending on season, weather, and shipping requirements.
Natural variation in size, branching, foliage density, color, root structure, and overall appearance should be expected.
Important Note:
You will receive a live starter plant (seedling/young plant). Listing photos show the plant at a mature stage for reference only. The actual plant size, shape, and appearance may vary and will be significantly smaller than the images shown.
Customer Notice:
Live plants may experience normal shipping stress such as leaf loss, yellowing, wilting, or minor branch damage.
Please consider local weather before purchasing. Extreme heat, freezing temperatures, severe weather, shipping delays, or unattended packages may increase plant stress.
Due to the perishable nature of live plants, returns are generally not accepted. If there is an issue with your order, please contact us within 48 hours of delivery and provide the required photos for review.
If there is an issue with your order, contact us within 48 hours of delivery and provide:
• Photos of the shipping box
• Photo of the shipping label
• Clear photos of the plant from multiple angles
• Scratch test photos if the plant appears dead or dormant
Dormant, stressed, defoliated, wilted, or transit-shocked plants are not automatically considered dead.
Claims submitted without required photos may not be eligible for review.
Claims submitted more than 48 hours after delivery will be considered accepted as received and may not be eligible for replacement or refund.
