Aquatic Plant Box (The House Plant Box)

What's in the box: A live houseplant, a different one each month, wrapped and packed in the company's own greenhouses.

The House Plant Box is a US subscription that sends you a different houseplant every month. The plants come from the company's own greenhouses in Mount Dora, Florida and San Marcos, California. You can choose from twelve subscription types. The Indoor Plant Box and the Pet-Friendly Box both start at $15.00 per month, the Premium House Plant Box starts at $39.99 per month, and there is a newer Rare Plant Box. Shipping is free on all orders. Plants go out nationwide by USPS and FedEx in what the company calls proprietary plant packaging. The pet-friendly option is a smart choice for homes with cats or dogs, and the range of tiers lets you start cheap and move up later. The main pages don't say how big the pot or plant will be on arrival, or whether care cards or soil come with each box, so check the box detail pages and FAQ before you sign up. Terrariums don't seem to be a focus, since this is mainly a live plant service. Any plant sent by mail can suffer in hot or cold weather, and the site doesn't clearly explain what happens if a plant arrives damaged. Overall it is a simple, fairly priced way to build a plant collection one plant at a time.
