We ship the best tropical plants via LTL refrigerated truck lines all over the country. Here is a helpful guide to estimate the cubic footage for your order:

 

SLEEVED (LOOSE) PLANTS:

8” = 1 cube

10” = 2 cubes

14” = 5-8 cubes

17” = 8-10 cubes (if under 8’, if over need to cube out)

 

BOXED PLANTS:

3″ & 4” boxes = 2 cubes

6”, 8”, and 10” boxes = generally about 5 cubes

10” Cane (4’3’2’) boxes = 8.33 cubes

14” Cane boxes = 9.53 cubes

6” Guzmania boxes (6 Packs) = 3.75 cubes

 

SPECIMEN PLANTS:

To figure cubes for specimens:

Height in inches (from bottom of pot) times the spread in inches times the pot size.

Divide this number by 1728 to give you the cubes

 

Example:

21” Adonidia Palm 9-10’= 120” x 21” (not a wide spread) x 21” = 52,920

52,920 Divided by 1728 = 30.63 cubes
