How to buy houseplants online:

Nursery Websites- Nursery websites offer a wide variety of houseplants to purchase and sometimes are the best place to find unusual houseplants. Most large nurseries offer a great selection of houseplants to buy online, along with their standard annuals and perennials. Seek out websites that have a professional looking design with lots of pictures and clearly described shipping and refund policies. Beware of sites that only accept checks or money orders as payment.

Online Florists- Typically, online florists offer a number of houseplants that can be bought online, but they do so at a steep price, thanks to the decorative planters and wrappings they add to each plant. They end up being a very nice looking product, but when you factor in shipping costs, the end price might not justify the purchase.

eBay- Just like seeking out any other online deal, Ebay is a great place to buy houseplants online. Just do a search on the site and you will discover thousands of listings for houseplants of all kinds! Ebay even offers houseplant seeds online. But before hitting that Bid or Buy Now button, make sure you read the listing over very carefully. It's important to be sure of exactly what you're buying.

Check the shipping charges and return policy. Finally, make sure you read the sellers feedback, both what he's received and what he's given to others. This will give a clear view of any problems and how the seller handles them. 

These three online destinations all offer different pros and cons. Be sure to do your homework to be sure you find the best place to buy houseplants online.
